General Mills & Hot Wheels Have teamed up! GIVEAWAY Ends 3/15



Starting January 24th, inside each participating cereal box (Cheerios® 14 oz, Cinnamon Toast Crunch® 17 oz, Lucky Charms® 16 oz, Reese’s Puffs® 18 oz, and Cookie Crisp® 15.6 oz), you’ll be able to “gas and go” with one of four custom-designed collectable Hot Wheels® pullback racers. Each car contains a code to unlock an exciting online racing game.

When it comes to meals, breakfast is important in helping kids fuel up for the day and Big G cereals provides a healthy breakfast choice for parents to offer their families. You can feel good about giving your kids a bowl of Big G cereal and they’ll be thanking you for a breakfast that is as tasty as it is fun!


Sounds good, doesn't it?

I remember when my brother would receive a new Hot Wheel when we were children. My sister and I would receive barbie dolls while my brother had those shiny new toy cars! Yes, I admit it....we played with his hot wheels every now and then and even brought Barbie along for the ride.

Do you remember the classic boxes of General Mills cereals? I loved the toys they hid inside of the cereal packages! I'm glad that they normally put the prize outside of the cereal bag now, it wasn't very sanitary when all of us rummaged through the cereal with who knows what on our little hands! I cringe to think of the germs that floated around in our cereal, eeeewwwwwwweeeee! The cereal was still tasty though, just as it is today.

What were/are your favorite Big G cereals? Do you still enjoy snagging a handful of cereal straight from the bag for consumption without milk? I do! Just about any General Mills cereal tastes great without milk. Scratch that, ALL Big G cereals do :)


MyBlogSpark has teamed up with General Mills and Hot Wheels AND generously offered to send 5 boxes of participating Big G cereals, all with collectible Hot Wheels® pullback racers!

Entry 1

My older brother and I would build a track that we could launch our cars off so it would fly into and hit the wall...I don't know why we thought it was funny to make it crash. I also had a car that would change to hot pink when it was submerged in hot water, I loved to take it to the tub with me.
