Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Date

Many local candy companies give free or cheap tours of their factories, and get this-- YOU DON'T EVEN NEED A GOLDEN TICKET! (although it would be really awesome to ask someone on this date by making a "Golden Ticket" for them...Just sayin') Anyway, I've done a little research for you to find out which one's give tours and put all the information right here in this post. So now all you have to do is find a date and schedule the tour. :)

All of these tours happen during the week, but I figured with finals ending this week we probably have time to go on a weekday in the near future. Also, most of them require that you wear close-toed shoes, so be sure to tell your date that.
