50-count bag of Lindor truffles, $12.49


Amazon has got this 50-count bag of Dark Chocolate Lindor Truffles for $12.49 with free Prime/SuperSaver shipping.  I'd already decided to make my mishloach manot a little smaller but with higher quality stuff this year, so I needed to get truffles in a large quantity.  So is this a good deal?  I did some truffle math.  Yes, I said it. Truffle math.

A 50-count box for $12.49 comes to $0.25 per truffle.  I usually get a 15-count (6 oz.) bag of Lindor truffles at Target, for $3.99, which comes to almost $0.27 per truffle.  So, yessiree Bob, that 50-count bag of Dark Chocolate Lindor Truffles for $12.49 is a very decent buy.

(Amazon also has the 60-count bags for $16.99, which comes to $0.28 per truffle.  Nope.)

Kosher-keeping Daily Cheapskate readers, kashrut information about Lindor Truffles is here (most are covered by the Kof-K...chalav stam; make sure to look for a hechsher on the bag or call the Kof-K to verify if your bag is missing one. Please note that the coffee flavor truffle is not kosher).
