    Maybe she's gonna donate those candy to an orphanage or something...

    Making 10,000 kids happy with only $3800, that's money well spent.

    I doubt this, because she drives off in a limousine, she could've saved money by hiring a cheap van to store the chocolate in, and donate that money to an orphanage instead .

    I just think she did it to get on the news and be talked about by webhosts around the world

    know the feeling, a serious case of the munchies
    If you must choose between two evils, pick the one you've never tried before.

    What does driving off in a limo have anything to do with it?

    if she already owns the limo, it'd be more expensive to rent a truck!

    Anyone notice the spelling error in the article? Or is it just me?

    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."

    Should it not be "ship" instead of shift?

    That's alot of bars....and a whole lot of cavities

    Wow, what an amazing piece of marketing.

    Worldwide marketing of Mars Bars for such a low outlay from the Mars marketing department. Well done guys, that's clever thinking.

    Was thinking exactly the same thing, good marketing. Could probably put the items they bought back out and reduce the amount spent even more.

    She either has a sweet tooth or a enormous behind.

    What I don't get, is what kind of store has 10,000 bars on hand...

    But if it was that, then the store would know why she bought the Mars bars because she had to show proof of purchase\the winning ticket

    "The woman, believed to be Lebanese, took advantage of a "five bars for £1" offer at the store in Edgware Road."
