Google suggests it's to keep chocolate bars under 250calories, Mars aren't the only ones to do this apparently.
I always just thought it was a stealth price rise. The bars shrink and the price stays the same frown

He was stupid to sell sweets on school premises.

Drugs have a much better margin.

Is this figure of £14k his profit or his turnover?

If its profit he must be turning over at least £50k, probably a lot more, that's a lot of cash, and a lot of food to fit in a school bag, I'm sceptical.
Somehow taking a young kid, who sells choccie biscuits for a "living", at his word over how much money he made doesn't strike me as a reliable figure.
