apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

A box of 30 for $8.99? I know people sometimes use Cheerios or Fruit Loops for this purpose...I would guess that 30 of those would cost 5 cents or less, and you might already have them in the house.

While I agree with the prior comment, I still think this is brilliant.

You could use corn-starch based packing peanuts for the same thing. They'd be less colorful, but I doubt that would matter...

This is unbelievable. I have seen some ridiculous products on AT, but this takes the cake. I would like to hear from anyone who would pay $9 for 30 cheerios.

This is not a new idea, by the way. When I was training my son, I lost track of how many people, books, and articles suggested I try target practice with cheerios. Which he had no interest in, and it turns out his aim is just fine, but I can see why other little boys could totally get into it. But... CHEERIOS, people. Generic cheeros, actually. Or generic fruit loops. Both of which are also non-toxic.

I'm teaching my little boy to sit down - all the time. At least until he is old enough to clean up after himself!

okay, obviously you all beat me to it, but i want to chime in:

cheerios. fruit loops. please, please, people who are willing to spend $8.99 plus tax for 30 of these, send me your money. and for that matter, send me the rest of your money; i'm starting a hedge fund for idiots.

I don't know if I should be embarrassed for AT for peddling Piddlers to us, or insulted...

Everyone's being a bit dramatic...it's not that serious. The idea is cool about using little O's though, I may see if my son goes for that...he's sooo stubborn.
