I was in Target today and as I walked up the aisles to find the Kind Bars I saw a box of Lucky Charms. The box showed Lucky depicted as Green Lantern. So I walked over and picked it up. There are five different General Mills cereals that have images of Justice League characters on them. I hadn’t realized it while in the store. So I’ll have to be on the lookout for Honey Nut Cheerios, Coco Puffs, Trix and Multigrain Cheerios. Inside the boxes are 4 different comic books. They are some decent comics, too. It will be fun to read them with Andrew.
A few days ago I received an email from the marketing team at General Mills. They invited me to come and talk with them about their cereals at Dad 2.0 this week. I told them my favorite cereal (Lucky Charms) and also my shirt size. The other day I received a sweet gift package in the mail and was very excited to find a Lucky Charms T-Shirt, Box of Lucky charms plus a hat and coffee mug for Ballast Point, a restaurant in San Diego where I’ll be meeting with the General Mills folks. This is in preparation for March 7th, National Cereal Day. I love it! I have made National Cereal Day a celebration at work the past couple of years by setting up a Cereal Bar for everyone. I coordinated folks to bring in boxes of cereal as well as milk and other cereal related items like fruits and such. It has been very well received each year. I’ll be doing it again this year, too. And I will certainly be wearing the new Lucky Charms T-Shirt! Thanks General Mills!
