For all you chocolate lovers, just wanted to let you know that Boscov's Department Stores (a Northeast chain) has resumed shipping the Asher's chocolates which they carry. (Boscov's does not ship with cold packs, so they do not ship during the warmer months.) Most of the Asher's chocolates are $24.99/pound, and lots of varieties are available -- including creams, nut clusters, sponge candy, etc. Occasionally, there is a sale of 10 or 15 percent off. I can attest to the fact that the dark-chocolate sponge candy, orange creams, and lemon creams are excellent.

Boscov's also makes and ships several varieties of their homemade fudge, but I've never tried it.

Cashback usually available through Rakuten; AA miles available through AAdvantage e-shopping.

Free shipping with minimum purchase, which varies from $39 to $59 from week to week.

Candy usually ships from one of Boscov's NJ or PA stores via USPS Ground Advantage, so it might take a while if you're out West.

I don't recommend ordering from Boscov's if you live in a part of the country with perpetually warm weather.
