** The street sweeper truck is being offered for collecting 1,000 cereal box tops. While this is obviously an exaggeration of cereal companies that demand buying ludicrous amounts of their product before they give you the prize being offered, this instance would actually be a very good deal for the consumer; not even accounting for inflation since 1997, the upper cost of a box of cereal is around $6. Buy 1,000 of those, and you get a full-sized, working vehicle for a ''tiny fraction'' of what it would normally be. No wonder the offer expired just before Dagget could cash it in; the Big Cereal Company probably realized just how terrible of an idea it was for them.
