Because you don't get enough sugar already

Who says you have to drink hot coffee, iced coffee, or espresso to get your daily caffeine buzz? Now at the Bux, you can feed your (sweets) addiction with caffeine in chewable form. Part of the pre-holiday rollout includes the addition of chocolate (in various forms) on sale at the store.

Aside from the annual advent calendar, miniature chocolate bars are now on sale (dark chocolate, with and without coffee (Sumatra)), as well as chocolate covered coffee beans (Verona, apparently), espresso beans (personal favorite), and raspberries. Muy interesante.

Anyway, I bought a couple of the bars and the milk chocolate covered coffee beans (the espresso ones were out) and was initially stunned at the price-- $7.95. With one serving size at 40 pieces and about 3.5 total servings per package, it comes about to a little over a nickel per chocolate covered bean. Depending on your perspective, it may be a little too rich for you, or an investment in a high quality product. Fortunately, I have my discount to thank!
