Every day it’s a new sale with discounts lower than I’ve seen before. Today through Wednesday Dec. 10, it’s Chocolate Celeste (2506 University Av. W., St. Paul, 651-644-3823, www.chocolatceleste.com). The high-end chocolatier is taking 50 percent off the 100 boxes of the Grand 16 piece truffle set (regularly $68). It’s a great hostess gift or you can get tiny boxes and give single truffles as gifts too. The chocolate is exceptional.

What other unprecedented markdowns have you seen recently that made you excited but just a bit nervous too?  Â
