I've found that hot chocolate mix is cheaper in cans than the pre-measured single serving packets. And I can mix it without using so much. In my opinion, it tastes better, and I save money on every cup.

Make your own mix. 8 cup box of powdered milk, 1 lb bag powdered sugar, 1 lb canister non-dairy creamer, 1 lb canister hot cocoa mix (not unsweetened cocoa). Mix altogether keep in air tight container.
I tried the much cheaper Home Brand, (Woolworths, Australia), Instant drinking chocolate but wasn't very keen on it. I didn't want to waste it so I mixed it with my favourite Cadburys Drinking Chocolate and the mix tasted fine, so now I always mix the two - half and half.
I would never buy single sachets because of the price but also because of all that extra packaging going to landfill.

I will never give up my milk + Ovaline in my hot chocolate machine ever even if it costs cheaper another way. It is way toooo good and the Ovaltine has nutrients added.
