Something to nibble - but recipient works for Tesco

Am buying a relative's family Monopoly ( at their request) to replace a much loved set which is way past its best.
I had the bright idea of buying a box of snacks or sweets to go with it, as we always had treats when we played board games. But the Mum works for Tesco so assume she will stock up on such things? Before I give it up as a bad idea, what could I get that you might not think of even if you work in a supermarket?

I think it would still be a nice gift even if she does work for Tesco.

Those jars of old fashioned sweets, usually to be found in my local garden centre! Things like pineapple chunks, cola cubes, rhubarb & custard. Or bags of jelly beans or M&Ms in exotic flavours that you can't buy in Tesco!

Aldi are doing some lovely nibbles this year, according to their catalogue. 5th December they're in store :)

I was in Lidl this week and they had some 'american' crisps and sweets that I'd never seen before.

Thank you, some great ideas here which are different enough.
