Default Inde Jones stuff good for halloween decorations

Hi,

I can't help but notice that the Indiana Jones stuff you see everywhere actually make for good halloween decorations. For instance this morning during breakfast, I dug under the bag of cereal to find a plastic spoon that lights up yellow with a skull and a snake on the piece. I plan on eating enough cereal to stock my party with them... I'm using "British public mummy unwrapping" as my theme this year and lots of the "crystal skull" Indiana things go very well with my theme.

So, even if your theme isn't Indiana Jones, or mummies, I thought we could share the items we gather from the premier of this movie, where to get them, and how we're using them for halloween...

There's a send away offer on the back of eggo waffles too, but it looks like a cheap pen light, so i let that one slide...


the light up scull on the inde website looks promising...also might buy an archeology dig as a prize for best costume...goes well with my theme

The light up crystal skull cracks me up.

More because my son has been making them for the last few months.

I'm curious to see the booby trap kit up close. The whips would be good for a number of costumes.

So, spoons in kellogs cereal, IIRC. Pop Tarts have a mail-in canteen offer.

I just threw 3 of those light-up spoons in the trash. I guess my kids didn't know that they wouldn't make it through a cycle in the dishwasher.

The spoons are found in various Kellogg's products like mini wheats, apple jacks etc...

I was just thinking the other day that the Indiana Jones stuff would make cool decorations or costumes. You could really make people jump by walking up behind them and cracking that whip.

Mac computer inc. is carrying items? I thought they just post tailers to their site and offer computer games?

I'm up to 8 spoons! Even though I don't usually buy the sugar loaded cereals, i'm quite enjoying them. I figure it's better to stave off a sweet tooth with cereal over bakery items...I'm hoping I can gather enough to serve "dirt" dessert with these...turn out the lights, make them use the light of the spoon to search for a plastic skull I'll hide in one of the "dirt" cups, whoever finds it has to be mummified or something...

if anyone has these spoons and you really don't want them, I'll pay shipping on them...i'm trying to get to 25 or 30...
