You're amazing but... those are expensive brownies.

You’re amazing but… those are expensive brownies.

So, this exists: Brownie of the Month Club by Gilt Taste.

Amazing: They make (acclaimedly) the best fudgey yummy brownies from top-of-the-line ingredients.
And the pictures do look really good.

Also amazing: They are delivered to your door every month for the length of your subscription (3 or 6 months).
You get a different kind every month.

But they only come once a month.
And it’s only 2.5 ounces of brownie. I’m guessing about this size, six brownies:

While that’s good portion control, check out the price tag:
$64.95 for three months and $129.95 for six months.

It seems like almost half of the price is shipping costs (unless I’m reading it wrong and shipping is extra!), but still, those are some expensive brownies.

I love brownies.
I mean, I l-o-v-e brownies.
And I love getting things in the mail. Especially surprises.
But Martha Stewart has some damn good recipes for a whole lot cheaper and maybe if I start sending my friends homemade brownies they’ll start sending me some back.

File this under: Things I don’t want for Valentine’s Day (or ever) because it seems ridiculous.

But now I want brownies.
Happy Wednesday.
