(...) No dice. Nor sugar cookies, nor promotional Lego. Not that this necessarily means anything. Oliver, do you think you could give us a bit more detail? (brand name, appearance, etc) James (URL) (25 years ago, 27-Sep-99, to lugnet.loc.ca, lugnet.promo)

If you can give me the UPC (bar code) number off the label, I'll bug the WalMart folks about it. I know that sometimes they will get things they normally do not stock if you ask nicely and you know the UPC number. Also, what department of WalMart (...) (25 years ago, 28-Sep-99, to lugnet.loc.ca)

(...) Wow! That almost(1) looks like a Lego product! Are there anyother brand names on there at all? Any indication of who makes the cookies? 1: I say almost because the copyright notice says "...used with permission" James (URL) (25 years ago, 30-Sep-99, to lugnet.loc.ca, lugnet.general)
