Definitely miss RC cola cans, opening up a box of cereal and pulling out a 3D card or looking for a good player on a box of Twinkees. Probably costs them too much to use the player or team likeness and maybe it doesn't even pay off in the long run if they did pony up the bucks?

As a huge Braves fan in my childhood, I was thunderstruck to find a package of cookies in a mom-pop grocery store with terrific cards of Braves players attached. My mother had brought me along just to lug bags, and was really annoyed that I desperately begged for the cookies. To this day, I remember the smell and taste of Johnston Cookies and wish I had been old enough in 1954 to go back to that little corner store and buy up their entire stock of them.

Yeah, you are so right. If we all could be granted three places to go back in time to get certain cards from some non-gum promotion that were usually not easy to get at the time the window was open for purchase. Thanks for sharing your eloquent memories, brother. Have a great day, sir. ---Brian Powell

My dad hoarded boxes of Post Cereal in 1990. There were literally dozens, possibly hundreds of boxes stacked in his card room. At first, it was amazing. My brothers and I had an endless supply of Lucky Charms, Honeycomb, Sugar Crisp, etc. I haven't eaten any of those since, and probably never will.

Wal-Mart Pizza included some cards last year. And if you want the Sandlot players from the movie, they're included in the DVD/Blu-Ray boxed set, I've been told. The biggest one I remember growing up was the gasoline company that was giving away packs of 1992 Fleer baseball with fill-ups.
