When I was a kid, some of the cereal boxes actually had 45 rpm records incorporated into the back of the box. When the box was empty, just cut it out and play it on your record player.

Got some cool cannon models I sent off for from the Quaker oats puffed wheat and puffed rice cereal coupons. . And got a small plastic Fort Apache with soldiers and indians from coupons off of Kelloggs sugar pops.
I also remember Kelloggs once had famous Indian chiefs and frontiersmen on the back of their boxes!!

I remember that.
Me too. Wow that was a long time ago.
I remember them. My God! How freakin old are we? 7mm
Got up early on Saturday to snatch out the toys then resealed the box tops.
Having lots of siblings makes you creative.
Same here...I would line up 4-5 bowls and empty enough out to get to the toy before my Sisters would awake. LOL Once ate a full box of Capt Crunch before my Sisters woke up...Becky was PISSED!! LOL

I remember asking time and again for cereal with a toy , one day they got a box . It was the space capsule. You ran a string from a high point to a low point . Put the space capsule on the string and as it waddled down the string it would shake open and a astronaut would fall out with a little parachutes . Thought it was the shiet . Yeah , I know that ain’t how it went , To a kid it didn’t matter , fuggin thing was just cool . Then another box had cut out soldiers . Used them to trace me a pile of soldiers , a fort made from cardboard and paste made from flour and water . Had a ball with that stuff . Kenneth

I remember that...
I also remember always being in trouble for stealing the toy before my younger sister got her cereal.
Got a cereal spoon with Huckleberry Hound on the handle sending in box tops from Cheerios. I had a cutout 45 rpm that was "The Archies" singing some bubblegum song. Not cereal but best toy was my Frito Bandito eraser. That thing looked badness on a pencil in elementary school.
Back around 1962, Post cereals had baseball cards on the back of the boxes. I ate a bunch of Corn Flakes so I could get a Mickey Mantle, and the rest of the Yankees cards.

That's nearly as bad as drinking the whole bottle of mescal just to make sure you're the one to get the worm.
Get everyone to put money down on table cause they dont think you will do it....
Tilt bottle straight up to your mouth. Let gravity send me worm to you. Encourage the crowd with hand gestures. Worm arrives...
Good chugg. Chew mr. Worm up Crunchy head , chewy outer skin, little popping sensation. Worm taste like mescal anyways. Stick chewed up worm out on your tongue to show everyone. Listen to wives and girlfriends grossed out comments ( they put money on the table also, homie dont do mescal worms for free)
Swallow.
Collect all the money from the chicken schits layed out on the table. Drink a ice cold bud bar bottle and repeat shots of mescal.
I have a rubber Bandido out of a bag of Frito corn chips somewhere, seen it when we moved 15 years ago. I think you put him on your pencil eraser? CRS sucks.

and his tune was "eye yi yi yi, i am dee frito bandito" loved them things.
The worm in the pepe lopez bottle tasted like plastic for some reason? Worst night of my life, pint of grain alcohol mixed with sunny delight, then went shot for shot with a buddy on two pints of pepe lopez. People really get weird when you puke in a pool at a party.

Seems I remember getting a small submarine from Captain Crunch. You put baking soda in it and it would sink and rise in the bathtub. probably around 1972ish. The ring whistle and the tiny pin ball machine from Cracker jacks were my favorites
Ride the beast with your shirt over your head, it adds a new dimension.

Btdt.
Got the bigger cup for Alexis. She was the only daughter that dared to go on it with me.
That rickety mini azz Eiffel tower scared the schit outta me on the walkway platform.
Some Rube Goldberg creaking azz schitt every step under my feet.
That was the last "vacation" I ever went on. With the wife and kids. May 04 after getting back from OIF 1 the real vacation was getting home from the fughing "vacation" . JFC........

GrandDad loved Fritos! So I always had a bunch of those Frito Bandito erasers in school as a kid.

Yep. Those little pin ball machines that came in the Cracker Jacks box were my favorites too.
Supposed to represent the skinny waistline that saccharine would give you. Or the chemo.
TaB tasted like battery acid, I remember that about it.
It was horrible. The only carbonated beverage the grandparents had in the house when I was their 10 year old indentured servant for the summer.
Was either that or straight up cranberry juice, or some prune juice. The water was sulfury.
Old people be drinkin some sheeit 🤮🤮
They had "Moxie" in Maine.
Tasted like a carbonated water filled ashtray and burnt wood.
Old people thought it was great!!!! Some stupid sign of acheivement in their minds drinking it..... Geuss when your taste buds connection to the brain is fried. It tastes good to em.....

Bring the specific gravity back to levels back to a Ph high enough to conduct reasonable cognitive thought processes between their synapsis. 😂
Wow this opened up the memory bank! We have a Monkees and a Bobby Sherman record from the back of cereal boxes. My Mother gave my wife her blue Shirley Temple glasses that were Jelly jars. I used to get miscellaneous foreign coins from Life cereal!
My favorite was when I was around 3 or 4 when Cap'n Crunch I believe first came out(1963-64?), for some box tops and a buck or so you get a genuine plastic replica Guppy sailing ship. My Grandmother saved some box tops and sent for it for me. I couldn't wait for it to come! Seemed like 6-8 weeks took decades! She lived straight down a small road and she called for me to come over she had a surprise for me. It was cold! Like zero or colder......real cold. Mom bundled me up and off I went. Grandma was waiting for me with a huge smile. She unbundled me and we opened the box. There it was in all its glory! The most beautiful genuine replica plastic Guppy. I couldn't believe it! I wanted to go straight home to show my older sister and Mom. So, Grandma bundled me back up with my giant mittens. And off I went. I want 30 feet from Grandmas house and I turned around to Wave goodbye and dropped it! It shattered into a bazillion little pieces! Honest toGod, I remember the details of that day and that Guppy like it was yesterday!,

I have to listen to that chit several times a year.
Old geyser used to tell how his parents allowed the kids (all boys) just two gifts apiece. He happened to be the youngest and was told he would get clothing and something to play with.
He got his older brothers pants with a hole in the pocket........

A vaguely remember a flat plastic card that you snapped parts out of and with the use of an elastic band had a tiny helicopter. Don't remember if it was cracker jacks or cereal but I remember it didn't fly worth chit
I remember the little submarines you put baking soda in. They never worked like they said. Pretty disappointing. Thinking back they might have worked better if you dropped them in vinegar instead of water. I remember getting prizes in cereal boxes and cracker jacks but don't remember what I got.
Anybody ever have success with those azzhole seamonkeys??
Just a stinking azz bowl of cloudy water for me.....
LOL!!!
My first real disappointment in life were those damn Seamonkey's.....their ad had these little Sea Horses drinking from cups of tea...little did I know they were freaking brine shrimp....one of the biggest scams of all time. lol
