Cheap Chocolate Day

Cheap Chocolate Day has come and gone, but another is just around the bend. What is Cheap Chocolate Day? Why, it's the best holiday of all....it celebrates chocolate -- on sale at 50% or more off!!

Cheap Chocolate days are:

February 15 - this is the best cheap chocolate day. The high holy cheap chocolate day. Adult chocolates abound -- not just bags of Hershey Kisses or Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. Boxes of chocolates, truffles, and other yummy delights

Day after Easter - As far as Cheap Chocolate Days go, this one is pretty good. Stock up on Cadbury Eggs, but watch the chocolate bunnies. Most are made by Palmer chocolate, and their chocolate is just a grade above chocolate flavored chalky wax. Steer clear of that stuff. Better NO chocolate than Palmer's chocolate.

November 1 -- All CHOCOLATES day it should be! This is where you can stock up on your minis to fill up office chocolate bowls. It's the 2nd best cheap chocolate day of the year.

December 26 -- Christmas is not a true chocolate holiday, but still, people do put chocolate in stockings. The danger of the post-Christmas Cheap Chocolate Day is that December 26 is a notoriously busy shopping day--people doing returns and checking post-Christmas sales. This is a cheap chocolate holiday for the truly chocolate obsessed -- because who else would brave those crowds for cheap chocolate without that obsession.

Yes, I realize that most people do not celebrate this holiday -- but I really do not see why not.
