NEW YORK, Feb. 2 (UPI) -- A New York advertising agency said its survey suggests a majority of women would take "great sex" over chocolate but more would prefer money.

Saatchi & Saatchi Wellness said its annual tracking survey of 1,000 U.S. women found 73 percent would rather have great sex on a weekly basis for five years than free chocolate every week for the same time period, Advertising Age reported Tuesday.

The company said 91 percent of respondent said they would take $1,000 in weekly cash over the chocolate.

Saatchi said its survey also indicates 36 percent of women are increasing their focus on appearance while 15 percent are making appearance less of a priority.

"It's like woman are saying, 'Damn it, I want to be happy again,'" Saatchi Managing Director Ned Russell said. "Times may be uncertain, but I'm going to move on and enjoy myself. They're saying 'I'm over it.'"
