Four Boxes = One Treat?

We made our annual summer treat run to the grocery store today.
I picked up a yummy, healthy, Rainbow Machine smoothie . . .


. . . but most of the rest of the family . . .


. . . headed straight for the candy aisle.
I gave each of the kids a five-dollar limit on how much they could spend . . .


. . . and Daniel realized that was exactly enough
to buy four big boxes of Mike and Ikes.
Given that he rarely remembers to eat his candy,
he'll be lucky to finish even one of those boxes before school starts again.
I may need to rethink the summer treat policy next summer.
