Cheap, easy, non-tacky Wedding Favors?

Hey all! Pretty self-explanatory what this will be about after reading the title. Does anyone have any suggestions on cheap, easy wedding favors that won't be tacky? (Sorry if I overlooked any posts that already addressed this!)

    We're doing Hershey's kisses in little fabric bags that my mom made. Super cheap and chocolate is almost always universally loved haha

    We are doing candy apples because we are having a fall wedding on an apple orchard, otherwise we would skip them. Edible is usually the best bet!

    You could go this route .. Mini jams/Jellys with "spread the love" round labels from etsy for the top of the jars. I'm paying around $70 for 120 jars of jam and $24 for the labels from etsy for so that's about $100 for 120 favors

    I think guest favors are fading a bit. I wouldn't do them again or provide guest bags. We did provide cute boxes with M&Ms in the wedding colors. I think small jars of homemade jelly would be nice if I were so motivated. You couldn't pay me to do guest bags again.

    We're skipping favors and donating money to a charitable organization instead

    We're just doing gummy bears, since everyone in my family knows I'm a gummy bear aholic. Smiley laugh. Eta: also because I can eat whatever people don't take Smiley laugh
