I found the last known cache of Starbuck’s Chocolate Mocha Truffles. I bought everything the store had.

To find these rare, soon-to-be-extinct chocolates, I obtained the product UPC code from Walmart’s website. Even though the product is discontinued, the code was still there. I did a search by zip code in an ever-expanding radius.

To make a long story short, there was only one particular search combination that gave me a “hit” within a few hundred miles. Fortunately, the hit wasn’t all that far away.

I had to brave the Flatlands, on a cold, dark night, traveling on treacherous roads….thanks to Mapquest, and it’s needless “shortcut” across a strip of ice in the middle of a cornfield. If that was a road, you coulda fooled me. But it was worth it.

I grabbed every last box from the store shelf. MINE!! They’re all MINE!! MUAHAHAHA!!

And now, they’re MaryAnne’s.

Sweet victory.
