Cornflake on eBay

A cornflake that is shaped like the state of Illinois sold for $1,350 on eBay friday night! The buyer is the owner of a trivia web stie and now the owner wants to add the cornflake to a traveling museum. The sellers of the cornflake are going to use the money on a family vacation. It's insane that people will buy anything these days.

That's so weird that someone would buy a cornflake for $1,350. There is no way I would ever spend that much money on a cornflake. I'm sure there will be others shaped like other states. I think that's insane!

Jackie where do you find these things? Its sounds interesting. Who in their right mind would spend that much money on something so non relevant? I guess I wouldn't know what it is like to blow money on something like that. I have never had any to waste. Have a great weekend Jackie.

I saw the picture to that and read about it in the paper. It is ridiculous that someone paid that much for a cornflake. We should find something completely random and somewhat interesting and see if anyone would buy our item on eBay. Who has that kind of money to waste on a piece of cereal? I know I wish I had that kind of money, but still it's one of the most ridiculous things I've heard of beside someone buying a french fry off eBay.

I read that on the online news!! Can you beleive that someone would buy a Kelloggs CORNFLAKE??? And it's Illinois! The shape really isn't that interesting. I would have put $1300 to something better.

Wow, people really will buy anything these days. I honestly don't think that I would have even noticed that one of my cornflakes looked like that...I usually just eat my food. But then again I'm not a very observant person.
