Me neither. I did get some new Lindt truffles this weekend that were awesome. Pricey though. $1.99 for one box. Boy were they worth it…
😯 I know Swiss products are expensive, but I’ve never seen a box priced like that! Unless you custom ordered them…Ahem…$1.99 Big difference there. 😳
That’s good!!! I couldn’t really imagine you spending that much on truffles when you could’ve bought a Windstone!! 😆
Good grief! I could not imagine spending that much on something that I am just going to eat! Reminds me of the $2,000 hams some guy is selling. You have to get on a wait list and everything.

Ski, I know you like food….but where in the hell do you FIND this stuff???
Hahahahha!!! I dont remember how I stumbled on this article… I just remembered it when we got to talking about $200 chocolate.
I think I’ll pass on the ham too….and to think I was grumbling about my $99 grocery bill and that was food for several days!!! 😆
Well, the ham selling guy did bring up a good point: The ham can feed about 20 people while a good bottle of wine goes down quickly among only a few. Still both (The pig and the wine) too pricey for me, but a bunch of pals over for dinner still sounds good.

Now I’m laughing at you for the other extreme. You think $1.99 for a box of chocolate is expensive? 😆

Now I’m laughing at you for the other extreme. You think $1.99 for a box of chocolate is expensive? 😆It was a bar of chocolate but its in a box type wrapper… hard to describe… picture a candy bar, and when you unwrap the top paper, its in a box. Thats what it was like. $1.99 for a bar of chocolate is pricey… they are usually only $.69 or something. It was worth it though. I would send you guys some, but I have to manage to get it to the PO before it gets eaten… by the dogs of course… I have more self control.

What was the name of the chocolate? Do you rememeber?
And I still think $1.99 is cheap. Our cheapest bars here are 90 Rappen (cents) and high-end Lindt bars can go to three franks – about $2.50.Its not cheap when you are broke 😆 They were truffels, I think… I will def get them again and then I will let you know for sure. 😉
