I'd take it, I love dark chocolate. I was joking with my husband last week and told him not to waste money on flowers and to get me something good like a HQ Sweet 16. Well, guess what I got.......the Sweet 16, I am so happy and very very surprised. I've been wanting one for a long time so I guess he took me seriously.

Congrats! Enjoy your new gift.


I don't receive flowers at all, allergic to pollen. I don't particularly care for chocolate either. I prefer more useful gifts like tools or clothes.

A friend of mine got all bent out of shape because my husband got me a vacuum on year for my birthday. I was what I wanted.

I have to agree.

I like dark chocolate but can't imagine spending that kind of money on it :shock:

I love dark chocolate. I am happy waiting for Christmas so I can buy dark chocolate covered cherries. Our oldest Granddaughter has bought us chocolates and chocolate covered fruits from edible arrangements. I think is too expensive for us. She doesn't think so and we do enjoy them.

You sound like me. I've been told you have to force yourself to get used to it if you don't like it. Unless its something that will save my life or improve the quality of my life, I'm so not forcing myself to eat/drink anything. My daughter did that with her energy drink now she's hooked on them. I bought a very small can of what she drinks, took a sip and immediately threw it away. so not doing that. There are too many options out there. For Valentine's day, my grandkids will be getting Dollar Store stuff. They really don't care and you can't beat the price

This is the way you buy presents in my opinion. You buy things that the person would like but not willing to buy for themselves. You have a thoughtful Granddaughter.
