Originally ours were about $3 until the shipping got added in - now its just under $4/each.
But i got something im happy with I wouldnt have been happy picking something just b/c the price was lower
And we've been saving in lots of other places - so this was a place we used 'extra' in our budget

I am getting a discount on the godiva 4 piece box and they are about 4 bucks each. I really want the white box with white ribbon, and i am not sure they might be extra for that, maybe 5 bucks each?
I am expecting 150 guests possibly

Do you girls think I'm psychotic if I spend $5 for gourmet caramel apples?? I've been looking and the ones I seem to come across are at least $4... unless I get the plain ones that they sell in supermarkets around Halloween...
Honest opinions please!!

We already bought 140 ornaments (more than enough for couples) and that was about $2 per ornament. I also want to put hershey kisses in a box and place it on top of the ornament box tied with ribbon. Im figuring about $3 a favor once I get all the materials.

Re: How much are you spending on favors??
if we stick with our idea, it's 6 buckos per couple...i say if because i want to give each couple a small box of these little high end chocos fh & i love, our fear is that most ppl wont realize and think we cheezed out because they aren't well known by all

Where did you get the chocolate from? I like AC Moores milk chocolate.
