Cereal Packet Toys

Just cleaning out the kitchen drawers and I seem to have a large amount of the toy thingies that come inside cereal packets.

Anyone got any ideas what to do with them. :confused: They are mostly still sealed in the little packages.

Thanks in advance

    I used to buy cheap christmas crackers undo one end and slip a toy inside :j ,or maybe you could put them in party bags if you have children if not give them to a charity shop, :T

    You could sort them into groups and see if they sell on ebay. Some people collect them.

  • Some of them go for silly money on ebay. or freecycle them, or give them to a local kids charity or schoolb(for adding to arts and crafts stuff) or save them for a shoebox gift to a kids shelter at Xmas.
  • BTW, don't be put off the ebay idea if the toys are recent. I've sold some brand new ones (only for pence, but at least they have a new home!), so they don't have to be older, collectable ones. :)
