KSDK NewsChannel 5 - Sisters Selling Illinois-shaped Corn Flake

dannywest · 03-17-2008, 03:26 AM

"...the girls say they'll use the money earned from the winning bidder to buy more Frosted Flakes."

Wow. That's all. Wow.

WesDawg · 03-18-2008, 12:05 AM

I guess I don't need to ask what complete moron bid 1500+ dollars on a small chunk of kid's breakfast cereal.

Amazing

Sgt John · 03-18-2008, 04:34 PM

201,000.............. like almost 8 years of work....and they get it for a fucking piece of cereal. Im so eating that thing if I get the chance

WesDawg · 03-18-2008, 05:07 PM

I can't believe I'm even spending any more extra thought on this, but...

Couldn't Kellogg's block this sale because of copyright issues or something else retarded like that?

Either way, this is a sad statement on today's society that some people find that a piece of cereal is worth the same as a Ferrari. Although since Illinois is involved, the final buyer could feasibly turn out to be Oprah, or Barack Obama.

You know what's weird, all my corn flakes look like that. All I would have to do is sell, like, one bowl and I'd be a billionaire!!!

Coachnorm · 03-19-2008, 07:03 AM

Sounding more like a stunt with false bids to get a flash of fame.

Miller · 03-24-2008, 06:23 AM

Item was removed, I'm guessing Norm is right on.

Mike · 03-24-2008, 12:16 PM

This was on our local Fox Station this morning. Didn't hear what they were saying about it though.

Mike · 03-24-2008, 12:18 PM

<-------- I wonder how much I could get for a flake shaped like this?

Mike · 03-24-2008, 12:52 PM

I have a basketball that is shaped like a round ball, I wonder what it is worth?

Sgt John · 03-24-2008, 03:22 PM

Ive got toilet paper with a cardboard tube

Hawks Eye · 03-24-2008, 04:52 PM

I found a Kix that looks like the moon this morning.

Also, MOJO, your avatar keeps creeping me out. I think I have bugs on my computer....

Bubba · 03-24-2008, 11:33 PM

I think the official selling price ended up being $1350.

I've smacked my screen three times already and still can't kill that damn thing.
