[22:49]  * daftykins raises a beer to the channel
[22:53] <penguin42> hey there daftykins
[22:53] <daftykins> \o how was your chocolate haul this year? :D
[22:54] <penguin42> oh I never buy easter chocolate at easter
[22:54] <daftykins> ah i forgot which season it was you stocked up
[22:55] <daftykins> my folks tell me that it tends to get taken down from the shelves here from tomorrow, so that explains why i've never caught any discounted
[22:55] <penguin42> only if it's as cheap as flat chocolate (of which I have about 9kg in)
[22:55] <daftykins> :D
[22:55] <daftykins> maybe that's the winning trick, walk in with a rubber mallet and remove a dimension from it all
[22:55] <daftykins> "discount please!"
[22:55] <penguin42> it certainly has been difficult to bring back in bags
[22:56]  * penguin42 did once *sell* an easter egg in Thorntons
[22:57] <penguin42> sometime in ~May, I bought their last 3 easter eggs at some ludicrous discount, and then some lady runs in and says 'Have you got any easter eggs!?'
[22:58] <daftykins> cor what timing
[22:58] <penguin42> so sold her one
[22:58] <daftykins> at a fair price? :D
[22:59] <penguin42> yehish
[22:59] <penguin42> I think they were like originally £4-5 each, discounted to like £2.50; I'd bought 3 for £5 and sold her one for £2
[23:00] <daftykins> ah can't sniff at that
[23:04] <penguin42> yeh I'm just looking at my pics from 2020, I got the haul from Thorntons then in June; but I don't think I saw any good priced last year
