LONDON, England (Reuters) --
A woman with an apparently insatiable sweet tooth stunned staff at a British shop when she bought more than 10,000 chocolate bars and had them loaded into her chauffeur-driven limousine.
The woman asked staff at a north London Woolworths branch for every single Mars bar in stock -- 10,656 of them packed in 220 boxes -- and paid for them in cash with 50 pound notes, a Woolworths spokesman said on Wednesday.
The total bill was 2,131 pounds ($3,828).
"It was very, very strange but nobody thought to ask her why she wanted so many," the spokesman said.
"It would usually take us a month to shift that number of chocolate bars," he added. "Perhaps she has a sweet tooth."![]()

I remember a program a while back on HBO about food fetishes in London, involving large nimbers of people. (Orgies)
Maybe they're making home videos. -

Damn that's a lot of candy
In England, don't they deep fry Mars bars out there (obviously) for desert ?Even a fool can be wise, all he has to do is keep his mouth shut -
How the hell do you deep fry a piece of chocolate? Melts in your hand, not like an M&M.

She's a "grey marketer" In the US, you can't buy one for less than half a buck and there she got them for 30 odd cents. 40 % profit, less shipping.
That's how they get to ride in limos.
That's how the disk sellers get rich too, come to think of it, selling garbage to us. -

yeah, so we get extra kicks when overweight bearded star wars fans say "oh, i think my money is in my pussy-pack." And of course "he went out not wearing any pants!" and when we say "Wanker!" and you say "whuh?"
