I can't tell you how much I love your site Greg. Absolutely amazing! I WAS there like you. 7/8 years old in '73. Wacky's were very dear to me. Now I'm 40 and reliving the excitement all over again...and I am looking to finally complete that 1st Series

Thanks!

Hi, I'm new to the whole wacky packages world. But I already love it. It's kinda cool that my parents remember wacky packages when they were little too. Anyway the website is great, thanks a ton. Tell Brent that he should also make a wacky packages webpage that would be pretty cool. thanks!

excellent wacky packages site! believe it or not I published a site devoted to wacky packages back in the first wave of wacky packages web sites in the mid 90's. It was around 1994 and my site got listed on Yahoo! and was even featured in one of the early Yahoo! magazines (with Brent Spinner on the cover). It got dozens of awards and had a guest book like this one - and the responses were very similar and emotional in the nostalgia and memories of good times. my site had pages of thumbnails and you could click on images to enlarge them. this was all pretty novel and fascinating stuff back then. my site eventually got hundreds of thousands of hits before I had to shut it down due to moving and getting married! well I'm divorced now so I just might put the site back up! lot of great memories here - really evokes a special time. how do these silly stickers bring back such powerfully emotional good feelings? I was feverish about collecting them and also had my 2nd and 3rd copies plastered everywhere. As a 40 something adult, they still make me all aglow inside. Plus, they reflect my politics perfectly and brings out the best anti-corporate subversive attitude in all of us! right on!

I gotta tell you my all time favorite wacky packages memory. I really wanted to complete a set and was missing a rare particular sticker right when Wonder Bread started putting them in with their bread. thus began a life of crime as I secretly and covertly wandered the grocery stores opening bread packages and checking out the sticker located inside until I found my sticker. can't remember the title right now but it had something to do with batteries and a black cat. It was a lot of fun. I DID purchase a loaf of bread when I found the sticker! I am sure not many would appreciate that I had pawed through their bread though! Probably one reason they stopped it.

Again, great site! Have been out of the loop for a long time - will order the new stickers right away! Brent
