To find out how much more expensive it would be to get a bag of Blue Tarts instead of a bag of Red Snaps, we first need to calculate the cost of each candy option.
The cost of 8 ounces of Red Snaps would be 8 * $0.25 = $<<8*0.25=2.00>>2.00.
The cost of 8 ounces of Blue Tarts would be 8 * $0.30 = $<<8*0.30=2.40>>2.40.
To find the difference in price, we subtract the cost of Red Snaps from the cost of Blue Tarts: $2.40 - $2.00 = $0.40.
Therefore, it would be $0.40 more expensive to get a bag of Blue Tarts instead of a bag of Red Snaps.
