Multiple choice: When would you rather hatch a set of nine 10k eggs?
A) A double XP event
B) A double dust event
C) A double candy event
Note: Assume you don't get to choose more than one option. I know double xp/dust events exist, but that isn't one of the options.

This for me too. I'm sitting on 500+ candy for most worthwhile gen 1 and 2 mons, but "no" dust to spend. Sure I wouldn't mind getting more Feebas and Ralts candy (and more Larvitar/Dratini/Chansey/Snorlax candy), but it's not really that needed right now and I'll probably get more Sudowoodo, Skarmory, Sableye, and Porygon candy anyway).
Candy for sure. XP here is a bare minimum of 10k a day with raids and much higher with catches and gym battles now that I'm in school (which has lots of spawns, stops, and activity). You really don't get that much dust from hatching an egg, and I get around 15k dust a day just walking between classes.
If I were to hatch even one decent mon (Let's say I hatch a Larvitar) and get 66 candies from it, well let's just say I'm very unlikely to Pinap 11 Larvitars in a day at school and would prefer that over the dust of a few hours' catches.
Interesting question and it's really down to what one needs, or want to achieve.
I thought I'd be sure of what I'd pick, but the more I think about it, the harder it is to chose.
I just reached lvl 39, so naturaly I'm aiming for 40 now, which means I need all the XP I can get.
But...
...I'm also at almost 4.5 million Stardust and have a goal to reach 5 million, so double dust would be great.
I have quite a lot of candies, even for the Pokemon found in 10km eggs (most of them anyway) and I rarely use any to power up. I'd like more, but that might not be a priority at the moment, though getting extra candies for the new Gen 3 Pokemon would be nice.
Even so, it's probably down to A or B for me.
I'll pick A, because it would be nice to just reach 40 and not have to think about that anymore (but I bet they increase the max level just because I reach 40).
Imagine if Niantic were to grace us with double everything, as well as shorter distance for buddies and eggs. Holy shit!
Never gonna happen though.
