You all may recall this post about the “Kidney Bean Cinnamon Mentos Candy” up for bid on ebay. Well, I returned home from work today to find a package from my friend Jon (who by-the-way just got engaged… congrats!). Apparently, he was the high bidder for the rare Mentos. He packaged it up, and sent it to me as a gift. So now I am the proud owner of a one-of-a-kind kidney bean shaped Mentos. I’m sure there will be people knocking down the door to get a glimpse of my new prize. I should probably start charging admission… maybe open a gift shop (that would of course sell Mentos!). I’m going to have to find some sort of display case for it now. Thanks Jon!!!
you should probably put it in a shadow box or else show it off some other way. dare i ask how much the winning bid was?
I am the guy that put this on Ebay. This was the only bid on it and it sold for 45 cents. This was my first weird thing that I have sold, but I will do more if I find weird things because it is fun and the people that bid are really nice.
My, what a lovely shape it is!
