1. A last-ditch effort
Max has left his Valentine's Day shopping to the last minute and now his city has been plunged into Level 4 lockdown. He goes to the supermarket and sees a couple of options:

- Cheaper chocolates which cost $1.50 each.
Max has $10 to spend and he wants to buy at least 6 chocolates. If you were Max, which chocolates would you go for and why?
