Inexpensive Dark Chocolate

So we've been trying to stick to a budget lately, and part of the changes we've made include shopping for various household necessities at Aldi's. Surprisingly, Aldi is a German company that owns Trader Joe's. There are plenty of good imported foods there, including German sourdough rye bread and chocolate. We've tried a few of their dark chocolate bars, with mixed results. However there was one stand out, Choceur Dark Chocolate, which is made in the Bavarian Alps. It comes in a red package and is about $1.29 for a 5.29 oz bar (note that the price online including shipping is four times this). The chocolate is dark, but has some milk added so it has a really nice texture and is not too bitter.
