    I just had to buy these the other day in my grocer's clearance section and I will put the box away. :)

    ...or as soon as anything comes along that is tied to them and they take up little room flattened out anyway.

    yes it is and i might add that the collecting of boxes extends to many other type boxed such as sports kraft dinners, and other products , which i also have .

    I also collected, and decorated ,with old board games so even tho they might not have any monetary value, it does have decorator value , i think (outside the box lol ) DSC08290.JPG DSC08291.JPG

    I only collect full boxes, so I can empty them into my bowl.(LOL)

    Ha!
    But don't save them that way!
    It is perfectly fine to carefully open and empty them.

    I've never thought of the new ones as ever possibly being worth much; they print too many.

    Yes though the vast majority of them are pitched out.

    The ones that might be worth saving are the ones for items that didn't sell, or with famous faces, etc. Most of what I get doesn't qualify.
