Why can't I ever find cereal like that?

I found a potato once that looked like someone's rear, I should have put THAT on ebay! I'd be at least $6,000 richer!

Show me a Cheerio shaped like Florida and I'll be impressed. Not $200,000 impressed, but maybe a Krystal's hamburger. :lol:

PA, flip Florida around. I think it looks more like Idaho. Not as many electoral votes but you've got yourself an eBay double whammy there.

I can't believe the current bid on this is $200,444.00. :shock:

Nope!

My son crumbled the flakes before I could stop him. He said, "they were just old cereal flakes" or something to that effect.

The bids were taken down by Ebay, seems you can't sell food on Ebay. So they have reposted it for a coupon redemable for the flake. This morn the bid was at $116.00. Here is the new link.
