/**
 * 2706. Buy Two Chocolates
 * https://leetcode.com/problems/buy-two-chocolates/
 * Difficulty: Easy
 *
 * You are given an integer array prices representing the prices of various chocolates in
 * a store. You are also given a single integer money, which represents your initial amount
 * of money.
 *
 * You must buy exactly two chocolates in such a way that you still have some non-negative
 * leftover money. You would like to minimize the sum of the prices of the two chocolates
 * you buy.
 *
 * Return the amount of money you will have leftover after buying the two chocolates. If
 * there is no way for you to buy two chocolates without ending up in debt, return money.
 * Note that the leftover must be non-negative.
