Early this month, I bought a tiny bag of dark chocolate raisins from the bulk section. The price was six dollars a pound. Guess I should’ve allowed more on my splurging that day because The next week I went back for more and they were nine dollars a pound! Darn. No more dark chocolate raisins for me.
