I have an odd request, and it’s going to come off like I’m asking for something or begging, because, let’s face it, I am! It’s not a big thing, so if it doesn’t work out, I won’t break down and cry or anything. 🙁
I noticed on a box of Nabisco brand crackers I bought before Christmas that Rachael Ray’s picture was on the box. When I read the side of the box, I noticed an offer for one of her cookbooks, Express Lane Meals, if you collect a certain number of box tops and mail them in with a check for 4.99. Unfortunately, it calls for 6 box tops and I only have 2 of these boxes. We don’t eat a lot of crackers, but I did buy some for a cheeseball and some dips I made at the holidays. I might buy one or maybe two more boxes at most, around the time of the Super Bowl. But I seriously doubt that I will buy 6 boxes of crackers in the next few months.
So, here’s my shameless begging – if you have a box of these crackers that has this special “cookbook point” on it and you are NOT going to use it for yourself, would you mind mailing it to me? Like I said, I won’t break down and sob if I don’t get it, but on the other hand, I didn’t think it would be too awful to ask. Or is it? Am I just a shameless horrible good-for-nothing blogger??!
Here’s what they look like:
Thanks!
SHAMELESS! Can’t believe you would DO this! LOL! JK
I don’t use or keep crackers much either but did buy maybe 5 boxes of stuff to use during the holidays with dips, etc. Most of them are in my cabinet, just ran & looked at them….all are Nabisco but not a one has that label/picture on it! One box has been thrown away but I think I would have noticed if it had her picture on it. I would give ALL of mine to you if I had them but I missed this offer so I have no tops to send you
🙁
But you can give me any cereal box labels you have for those free dvd’s! HA
I’ve got 3 of them! Which are more than welcome to have. We’re not big cracker people either…just the holiday stuff. Anyway, one of them is ripped (child obviously tried to open that box), but I suspect they won’t mind. Just e-mail me your address and I’ll have them off to you pronto.
I don’t think we have any but will keep an eye out and let you know.
I know Rachael is on a box of Wheat Thins at our house. I’ll take a look when I get home.
Ooh yay, you might get there Sis!
I just ran and checked my pantry, nope no crackers with Rachel on them. If I get any soon, which is doubtful since our cracker supply is not waning (LOL) I’ll be sure to let you know. 🙂
“shameless horrible good-for-nothing blogger” amused me…doesn’t it sound like a British insult? I can totally hear Harry Potter or Ron Weasley saying it.
I’ll check out my stash of crackers too. Not sure what I have. I bought a ton during the holidays!
I KNOW I have at least 2. I’ll drop them in the mail tonight when I get home!!! (I’ll only do this if you share the really, really good receipes with us!)
I don’t have any, but I think this was a great idea. Looks like you’ve got enough.
I just checked and I have one on a box of wheat thins. I’d be happy to send it to you if you need it. I think you may already have enough coming based on these comments but if you want it, just send me your mailing address. BarJr50@aol.com
Shameless begging indeed, but a faithful and funny blogger such as yourself who’s always sharing some interesting or useful tidbit deserves to beg shamelessly every so often! Hope you get enough to get your cookbook!
Wish that I could have helped you out, but the mister and I have given up crackers as part of our getting healthy. It looks like you did good in the box tops, though! I wouldn’t consider it begging either. I hope that you enjoy the cookbook!
How was the recipe? Did you make it?
I’m afraid we don’t have them here but hope others will help you collect the needed labels. Hope you get your book. Take care!
I’ve already cut 2 out for you. 🙂 Don’t throw eggs at me, but I can’t stand Rachael Ray. I’m sure she’s a wonderful person, but she gets. on. my. last. nerve. It seems like she is *everywhere* these days.
Do you need the points by a certain time? I can mail them to you whenever you need them, but I thought I’d try to accumulate a few more if you don’t need them right away. Then maybe you can get TWO cookbooks and do your part to feed the Rachael Ray hysteria! 😉
I’ve got 2 here to send to you if you still need them. Email me. You know the addy.
