We shop at a place that sells distressed freight. It gives me a chance to try new things economically. We found a winner.
We have been paying $2.49 for a box of six of these Skippy brand chocolate peanut butter bars. I have included a picture.
Are they healthy? Not particularly, but not too decadent either.They are not an overly sweet snack and they do have two grams of fiber each. They have the wafer cookies, and a bit of chocolate. Peanut butter inside of course.
I have not seen these in our regular grocery store yet, but I look when we go there.
Do you want to share a snack with us?

This store is so unique. Yes, it has closeouts. It also has some produce and stuff like any store does, bread, and other staples. It has cheese from local producers, and frozen home made casseroles and it has bulk spices, herbs and baking supplies. A lot of things that either the Mennonites or Amish want for their cooking. Oh and freshly made bread and rolls.

@GardenGerty Yeah, this particular store has a lot of Mennonite's that shop there, and they have all kinds of old fashioned baking supplies in bulk. Besides their main headquarters is close to PA Dutch country, so I am sure they sell alot of it to Mennonites there as well. I doubt Amish would be able to shop there..but I dont know, they seem to make exceptions for some things.

I know, not everyone likes peanut butter, and "gasp" I even know some people do not like chocolate. I also know I snack too much, often out of boredom.

Bob says he sleeps better if he eats one before bed.

Just got my groceries and bought Great Value potato chips from Walmart. They are crispy and delicious and I have them with cheese dip.

I have not looked too hard in the regular stores. I may just order them on Amazon.

Those look yummy! We bought a cantaloupe for $3.50 and have really enjoyed it as a snack.

I had an offer on one of my shopping apps for Skippy peanut butter …I discovered we don’t have it in our local supermarkets so I wasn’t able to try it. Haven’t seen these bars either, but hope you enjoy them.

I should get into some of the shopping apps. Of course if you do not have it, you cannot buy it.

They are, and he likes them better than granola bars.

Oh, I am sure they are really good, but I just never buy anything even similar to this...it took me forever to dump that weight. I still have treats, but I don't leave things around like this, son has to watch his sugar as well. They do sound delicious.

I like too many things, but it is good for Bob to get some extra calories.

I probably wouldn't go for these but it's good if you can get them a bit cheaper.
