Mike Straka: Hello and thanks for watching the Real Deal. I’m Mike Straka, coming to you from midtown Manhattan at Godiva because it's Valentines Day, and guys, when you ain't for the last minute, you can't go wrong with a box of chocolate baby. Let’s go inside and check it out.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Mike Straka: So inside this maker 1 of chocolate we have lady Godiva herself with Erica Lapidus. She's head of PR Promotions 2 for Godiva.So Erica, Valentine's Day is a huge day for you guys, correct?

Erica Lapidus: It is. Valentine's Day is actually the busiest selling day of the year, the 13th and 14th are by far the busiest days themselves.

Mike Straka: And I, I bet a lot of women come to shop that day, right?

Erica Lapidus: As a lot of men, they had some shame when spent on. Those last two days 85% of our shoppers are men. In all our Valentine's Day collection boxes, there is a certificate inside the boxes that give the lucky winner a chance to win an amazing grand prize. For Godiva’s 80th anniversary, we are giving away 80 thousand dollars' of H. Stern jewels and 80 boxes of Godiva chocolate. (Very cool.) So it's very exciting, chocolates and diamonds and very, a luxurious 3 prize, and ult, ultimate indulgence.

Mike Straka: So you, you wind up Willy Wonka?

Erica Lapidus: I would really like to think so.

"You won, you did it. You did it. I knew you would, I just knew you would."

Mike Straka: Easy there, little Oopa Loopa. According to the Chocolate Manufacturers Association of America, some 36 million boxes of chocolate are sold for Valentine’s Day alone. And Godiva is one of the most popular destinations with several choices to meet your budget.

"You guys have a nice day."
"Thank you, you too."
"Thank you."
"You're welcome."

Mike Straka: This is the G-collection; this is your exclusive high end?

Erica Lapidus: This is our G, it's our G-line, it's urm, all the pieces are handmade, handcrafted. It's of historic ingredients.
Mike Straka: How much, for this box?
Erica Lapidus: This is a 90-dollar box.
Mike Straka: 90-dollar box? (Yes.)Ok, now if your budget isn't that high and your, your, your heart is really big, but your budget isn't, you got the four-dollar job, right?
Erica Lapidus: Yeah, that's a two-piece box for four fifty, and it's had a great little heart on top, a, a perfect expression of something for a friend, or a child for Valentine’s Day. So there are really ranges from four fifty up to the high end of G-collection.
Mike Straka: And this will make her smile, guys, and I'll tell you what, they sell about 15 thousand of these an hour on Valentine's Day. How about their business? Oopa Loopa!

Mike Straka: Crystal, is there a trick to this?
Not really. Go in to check this food and eat in your mouth. (Ha...)
Delicious.
Mike Straka: Ok. then about a dozer for this vision of the Real Deal. Tune 4 in, click in every week on Fox news. com, and every Tuesday, Thursday, Don’t forget the the Girl Column. Until next time, that’s the deal.
