| - I am not a candy eater, but my wife is a chocoholic freak so I go here a lot with her or for her. I was just there this morning to pick up more candy for her since she was running out. I just thought I would mention the fact that they are always very courteous at See's and they do something very carefully that I most other establishments don't. When you buy some candy, they have various box sizes -- half pound, one pound, two pound, etc. etc. When they put your box on the scale when you are paying for your candies, the scale automatically adjusts for the weight of the box, whether it be the small half pound box, or a big five pound box. You might not think that this is a big deal, but some places don't do this or the adjustment is not very accurate.
Also, I was using a gift certificate for one pound of candy so they filled the one pound box full -- when they weighed it, the weight was not quite one pound so they gave me the two extra pieces in a small bag. Most places just fill the box and call it even.
So I think that See's concern for customer service and giving the customer full value for their dollar is very good, especially in today's "bad customer service climate".
Incidentally, my wife says that the value to price ratio of See's candy is even higher than Godiva Chocolates, Bill Blase chocolates, etc. etc. She should know -- consuming maybe 50 pounds of choc candy each year!!
