When to buy the Chocolates?

Hi,

I am thinking of having the reeses cups & Hershey kisses for my wedding favors. When should I purchase them do you think?
How soon can I purchase them?
My wedding is on February 2012 and I am hoping I can take advantage of this thanksgiving/christmas sale.

Thank you for your inputs!

I would say it's okay to buy them now. I know for a fact that the candy thats out right now in stores for Xmas has already been sitting in most of these stores since August & probably made alot earlier than that. Chocolate doesn't spoil that easily. I wouldnt recommend buying it this early if your wedding wasnt until later on in 2012 but I think youre okay with getting it now for February. I would recommend you make sure that the Kisses & Reese's cups are not wrapped in red/green for the holidays unless youre okay with that or it goes with your wedding colors.

I just looked at Hershey Kisses at Wal-Mart and they have a 10/2012 expiration date on the bag.  I'm planning on getting red and silver kisses on clearance for a June wedding.

I ordered 25lb of hersey kisses from Amazon.com for my March 24 wedding.
