TL;DR: We found the best deals on Valentine's Day candy at Amazon and Target, including budget-friendly classroom exchange packs and premium gifts from Lindt and Ferrero Rocher.

Valentine's Day is this Saturday, but you haven't missed the window for the good stuff just yet. If you're still hunting for sweets, the strategy is simple: go to Target for the kids and Amazon for the adults.

Target has completely cornered the market on "classroom exchange" packs. You can grab 25-count boxes of Haribo Goldbears, Fun Dip, and Nerds Gummy Clusters that come pre-labeled with "To/From" tags. With prices ranging from $3.99 to $5.99, it's the most cost-effective way to host a school party. Plus, you can order online and grab your haul via Order Pickup in as little as two hours.

If you're looking for something a little more "grown up," Amazon has a ton of premium options with overnight shipping. I found markdowns on Ferrero Rocher gift boxes and Lindt Lindor truffles, plus harder-to-find treats like Whitman's S'mores chocolates and Leonessa Dubai Chocolate Cones.
