Cookies? What the...?

Okay, so I just randonly browse/lurk on the LUGNET NG's especially for
the past couple years and I've never seen what I saw/bought today
anywheres else....but I'm sure lots know about them.

I was in a local "discount" department store and they have these tins of
cookies (choc. chip abd butter) and they contain a small (very small)
lego set.  This is real true valid LEGO stuff.  There are four different
sets total.

The one tin that I bought contains set 2880.

The tins have pictures of various town scenes from at least a year or
two or three ago.

On lugnet the release date for set 2880 is cited as 1997.

Anyhow, the tins are selling at this store for $4.99 CDN (approx $3.34
USD) and they have several that most likely won't move too fast (as in,
getting 20 more in the next three weeks wouldn't be a problem.)

I'd like to know some more information that anyone has as to when where
and why these were released as this past month was the first time I ever
saw them and I never remember seeing them in any other stores before.

Also, if anyone is interested if this is like a good price or something
let me know.  I'd be really interested in trades.  Mind you the whole
tin would be a bit for shipping (~1 kg with cookies, tin, and
LEGO).....but to ship the LEGO itself shouldn't be too bad (the cookies
are absolutely terrible though - taste like garbage)

Thanks,
Tim
