aff_link("https://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=110235071660","A cornflake shaped like the state of Illinois","","US"); ?> has been sold on eBay for $1350. The cornflake was bought by the owner of a trivia website; Monty Kerr from Trivia Mania says he is starting a collection of pop culture and Americana items.
The cornflake was sold by two sisters from Virginia. It had been listed once before but the auction was cancelled as it violated eBay’s food policies. This time, they sold a coupon which the lucky winner will be able to redeem for the actual cornflake.
Naturally the cornflake has caused a flurry of copy-cat listings, including a aff_link("https://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220215386275","cornflake shaped like Ohio","","US"); ?> and a aff_link("https://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180225830159","cornflake shaped like both Illinois and Ben Franklin","","US"); ?>.

A coupon. So I could sell a coupon for my kidney?

Have you heard the one about the child in tears because they couldn’t do the jigsaw with the big red and green bird on the outside of the box?
