Whole Foods at Fresh Pond and River St. usually has some this time of year. Lately I've been using the Guittard chocolate for all my seasonal candy. It's expensive, but darker than most and better than Ghirardelli to my taste. They sell their chocolate chips and baking chocolate at WFM. They also used to carry Valrhona but I am not sure if they still do.

That's what I ended up using last year (I love Guittard chips for cookies). Wasn't the worst, just hoping for something different this time. We'll see what I can find.

Sometimes they have the big blocks in a display basket in the cheese or deli section rather than in the baking aisle. It's just big chunks of unbranded baking chocolate wrapped in plastic wrap with a deli sticker slapped on it.
