Surprisingly there seems to be a lot of Christmas candy at various stores that haven\u2019t been cleared yet. As a result, the prices continue to drop until they can get of them. Because of that I was actually debating if I should buy any and there were a lot of varieties. I didn\u2019t have any preference either where to me it\u2019s chocolate full of sugar in these cases meaning they are all unhealthy. So if anything it\u2019s just a treat. So how to decide which one?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I actually tried to see which one gave you the most product for the dollar. For example, $5.54 for 650g of chocolate candy or $1.94 for 245g? Breaking it down, it would look like this:<\/p>\n

For 650g at $5.54:
\nCost per gram = $5.54 \/ 650g \u2248 $0.00852 per gram<\/p>\n

For 245g at $1.94:
\nCost per gram = $1.94 \/ 245g \u2248 $0.00792 per gram<\/p>\n

So you can see one is better but not by much. As well, technically with the $1.94 option you can get multiple box varieties as well. I often do this when I don\u2019t have specific preferences for food items. It\u2019s just a natural habit in wanting to get the best value. Restaurants are a great example as I don\u2019t dine in them often and so I usually use the same process if I can\u2019t decide what I want. It\u2019s like a vote swinger in regards to the money saving aspect of the day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
