Chocolate salvation

General October 11th, 2004

I have a 30 count box of M&M/Mars candy bars in my office to feast on when I get hungry. Not surprisingly, 30 candy bars from Sams is cheaper than the vending machines in the basement, and I always get what I want.

Until the box is running low, like now, and all that’s left are Milky Way bars. If they would have put Milky Way Midnight (A.K.A. Milky Way Dark) bars in the box, I would be happy as a clam. But I’ve decided the Milky Way traditional bars the worst thing in the box. When I looked into the box today, I only saw four Milky Way bars. Daaamn.

And then I remembered something that makes M&M/Mars rock. They hide a secret Snickers bar in the spacer/insert/cardboard divider thing in the box. Sure enough, when I removed it and peeked in side, a Snickers bar blinked back at me.

Excellent.

Mental note: Ask someone with a Sams card to take me soon.
