A New February 15th Tradition!

11 Boxes of Chocolate with 119 pieces,
3 candy bars, 1 card, 1 Fundip, 2 lip balms
and a Spongebob candy shish kebab.


Me and my friend Stacey decided that we would go on a hunt to get gourmet chocolate the day after Valentine's hoping it would be on sale... we were right! We went to Walmart, CVS, Walgreens and Target in Edmond and found some awesome deals! So many things were half price and some things were even marked as low as 50 cents! Here is the break down!

Original price: $63.71
We paid a total of: $37.94
Individually spent: $18.97

Overall we had a great time, we met some older ladies who were doing the same thing as we were, we told them where to find the good deals and joked with them. It was a odd sense of camaraderie we had with them, all for the sake of buying cheap chocolate! 

We both agreed that this had to be a new tradition and that next year we would have more of our friends join us! And try the same trick after other Holidays! (except Thanksgiving, no Black Friday shopping please!)

Better watch out chocolate bunnies... we're coming for ya!!
