I just bought 40 lbs (big neighborhood) at US$4.44 a lb for snack-size name-brand 'chocolate' at Costco

Nominal price for the past four years has been $5 a lb here. Given that's kirkland's packaging with mars/hersheys candy in it.

Looks like my local grocer is $24.99 for the 3.4lb bag which is over US$7 a lb so ... yikes.
