It's to support kids in soccer which I hate but I bought one anyways, now I'm wondering if I should have got them all so I could share with the rest of my family. What do you think?

I think you need to remember the spirit of the transaction. You bought a candy bar, overpriced at $2.00. They probably cost the soccer team 20-35 cents each. Add shipping charges, and other small costs, and the kids probably net $1.50 or so. The team is selling the candy in order to make enough money to buy uniforms, buy new equipment, rehab a field or pay for a trip to a tournament. Thoughts of buying the candy to share with my family would have been, although honorable and very unselfish, a secondary consideration. I'd have asked to buy the whole box, and told the kids to bring some more tomorrow. You are supporting their 'cause'. Ever wonder why people buy the watery, syrupy, strange-particle-filled concoction from the lemonade stand down the street? They're our kids and, whether we parented them or not, we support their causes whenever we can.

Just get one. Really. Because if you would have bought more, they will remember that. And word would get around on how generous you were with buying God knows how many bars. Then, before you know it, every motherf@cker out there would be coming to your door, pandering you for to buy something form them. If you bought from one, why can't you buy from them, too?
So, buy one, enjoy it, be happy you made a contribution to a soccer team. You did your part.

You should have bought as many as you wanted. Even if you hate soccer, the kids are out there ringing doorbells selling candy bars, they deserve credit for that.

Just the one. Chances are you could buy the same candy bar in the store for a buck or less. But it's good to support the kiddies.

Put a no soliciting sign on your front door. If everyone keeps buying things they don't need from unsolicited people, corporations, etc., we can't take care of our own budget.
I know it's for a good cause, but at times is annoying.

Just go to Costco and buy a box of candy bars, you;ll save a lot.

Wow, 2 bucks each. At that price, just one. When it's $1, I usually get at least 2.

If I were you I would've bought more for my family maybe like 10 would be a good amount.
