Just did with mine, and she wanted to know if I'd do that for her and fill it with .45.

I may be way too suspicious, but I just noticed the Russell Stover label on your husband's gift. Do they sell empty Valentines Day candy boxes? :totap:

There is/was a Russell Stover distribution center in Montrose, CO. You could get the Valentine candy after season, in the summer, by the case for pennies on the dollar. I think the local dentists subsidized the clearances. :mrgreen:

Back on point - nice surprise, what caliber?

I bought the tin of candy at Walgreens. Removed the candy and replaced it with 8-1/2 boxes of .45 caliber. (I put the candy in a ziploc in the fridge - he likes his chocolate cold - and he's enjoying it as well).

That's your story and you're sticking to it. :smilelol5:

Added: I like to keep my chocolate in the fridge too.

Very original and thoughtful. Let's see....hmmm...that's about a $300 box of chocolates.
