I had to scramble for a review, since I&#8217;m the only one who came into The Impulsive Buy Laboratory on Labor Day.  Those bastards!<\/p>\n<p>I checked The Official Impulsive Buy Cabinet, where we keep the stuff we&#8217;re going to eventually review and our lunches, but the only items in there were a container of one-year-old Tang, a can of refried beans, and four three-year-old cans of cream of mushroom soup.  <\/p>\n<p>Thank goodness for the national convenience store chain down the street.  Open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and 365 days a year.<\/p>\n<p>With only a dollar and some change, I felt like I was Rachael Ray on the Food Network.  She has this show called $40 A Day, where she spends a day in some town and only has a $40 budget to eat breakfast, lunch, dinner, and a snack.  Some of us at The Impulsive Buy watch the show religiously, because she&#8217;s a little dorky and really hot.  Grrrowl!<\/p>\n<p>Someone, who I won&#8217;t name, even has a shrine dedicated to her that consists of several 8 x 10 photos, her cookbooks, and a television\/DVD combo that plays a continuous loop of her shows.<\/p>\n<p>With very little money, I couldn&#8217;t buy much.  Fortunately, I came upon something M-Azing in the candy aisle, Peanut Butter M-Azing and Crunchy M-Azing.  Okay, I didn&#8217;t know if they were M-Azing or not because I did try them yet, but the price for them was M-Azing.  They were on sale for 59 cents each, so I bought both.  <\/p>\n<p>M-Azing is basically M&#038;M&#8217;s Minis in a chocolate bar.  Not just any M&#038;M&#8217;s Minis though, crunchy and peanut butter M&#038;M&#8217;s.  I was wondering if there was a plain and a peanut version, but then I realized how silly it would be to put plain chocolate M&#038;M&#8217;s Minis in a chocolate bar and how hard it must be to make peanut M&#038;M&#8217;s Minis.<\/p>\n<p>After eating both in one sitting, because I was so bored and lonely in The Impulsive Buy Laboratory, I think M-Azing isn&#8217;t that M-Azing.  Maybe it&#8217;s because I&#8217;ve been mixing M&#038;M&#8217;s for years with other things like, putting them in chocolate pudding, in a peanut butter sandwich, on top of ice cream, mixing them with Yoo-Hoo, in trail mix, stuffing them into Twinkies, etc.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t get me wrong, they are good, but like I said before, it just isn&#8217;t that M-Azing.<\/p>\n<p><b>Item:<\/b> Crunchy M-Azing &#038; Peanut Butter M-Azing<br \/>\n<b>Purchase Price:<\/b>  $0.59 each (on sale)<br \/>\n<b>Rating:<\/b>   6 out of 10<br \/>\n<b>Pros:<\/b>  Cheap price.
