This Kraft Velveeta Cheese box came with an offer for a 125 piece Lego set for only $1.00. That includes shipping and handling.
An online seller is estimating this at 1973 but there is no date on the box or offer. Seems a bit earlier to me but not much earlier.
I am not thinking Lego would honor the coupon now.
Don't know why ~ not really the same thing ~ but this just reminded me of the free toys that came in cereal boxes. Remember that??? I remember emptying the cereal out of the boxes into a big bowl to get at the toys before my brothers ~ the toys were always at the bottom of the boxes ~ and then putting the cereal back into the boxes! [;>)
LOL I don't think Velveeta imagined that any of those coupons would still be around in 2016!
I agree it is earlier. Probably mid 60s as the lego logo looks like the pre 1972 logo.
Thank you very much NevadaBlades. The toys that came with cereal were great. I have a bunch of Winnie the Pooh spoon hangers. We were always saving box tops for the mail away items.
Thank you very much Efesgirl. I have a feeling they did not.
And thank you very much elanski. That seller was just taking a wild guess as many do.
Thank you

Lol, tried to redeem once from Lego and they sent me one plastic brick!
Thanks Signaholic. Looks like Lego got the last laugh on that one.
Thank you

There is no expiration date on the coupon. I have a set of Lincoln Logs but no Tinker Toys yet.
I was never all that skilled with them or rector sets.
Thank you very much Thomas. I was going to try and build something with my Erector set but a look at all those small pieces and I don't think so.
Interesting about Legos.
