This triggered many memories of finding one of these, opening it up, excited to swipe some cookies only to find bullshit. Buttons, yarn, coins, nail clippers. I used to be pissed at the bamboozle lmao.

Your “local store”. Of Walmart.

$13?! Jeez, greedflation is out of hand.

Best cookies ever.

This is literally so real lmfao

Schrodinger's cookie jar

What’s the difference between butter cookies and cookies make with butter?

My grandma used them for everything, grandpa had some in the garage.

We make homemade cookies every year and refill them.

My buddy moved away for college and said the best gift he got was one of these. Any time it was empty he would send it to his mom and she would refill it and send it back to him with homemade cookies. Really neat idea for homesick college kids.

Similarly, we save all of our takeout containers (the plastic ones, typical for our thai and chineese, etc) and take them to relatives at thanksgiving because they make a great way to split leftovers and you don’t have to care about ever getting it back.

Well god damn it I must be getting old because I get it. My grandma had a few of these.

I laughed loud enough for my daughter to check on me. Didn't explain why; she wouldn't understand

What's the difference between the $3.98 version and the $12.48 version?

I don’t know anyone under the age of 70 that actually likes those. Also, who the fuck would pay $12 for some dry ass cookies?

This joke is so old, it puts spools of thread, buttons, and needles in these tins.

$12.50? Damn you inflation, you've gone too far!

JK

It's Walmart, I was going to shoplift anyways

Thanks. Both my grandmother and mother are big time quilters, and other sewing projects. Never seen them use these tins for that (which were also a regular holiday item).

Many grandmothers repurposed these tins to hold sewing supplies.

Don’t forget the tomato with a strawberry hanging off the stem.
