Depending on how many you need, they are pretty easy to make at home.

Nope. He would rather spend $108 on a dozen brownies than spend an hour in the kitchen. If he was married, he wouldn't have this problem.

Just get a few chickens for the eggs, grow some wheat and then make flour, churn some butter, and then get like 8 other ingredients and make your own.

Frank has women do all the work in his household, besides the Hershey Kiss infused chili.

When I was in college I sent my GF-now-wife homemade raspberry brownies. That was when I cared about her.

You can make really good brownies with 15 minutes or so of work. You'll spend less time assembling a good mix than going shopping.

My family already think I'm cheap (secretly rich too) and I'm thinking shipping homemade brownies may not help my cause.
