Re: What's the Best Thing You Got out of a Cracker?
Last years crackers, in one of them I got a travel game box and inside it was a Crib Set, the plastic board was on top and underneath was all the plastic pegs.
Re: What's the Best Thing You Got out of a Cracker?
Wade Whimsies, small ceramic figures, 8 to collect & of course the box had 8 crackers, but there was no certainty you'd get all the set, so 2 boxes needed.
They still make them now, but they are no longer cheap to buy.
The pic is a box from a while ago that we have never opened.

The best thing I ever got out of a Christmas cracker were a decent quality nail trimmer and a tiny but reasonable quality adjustable spanner - ideal for all those Meccano-sized nuts and bolts jobs.

A load of plastic toy kits such as little bears sitting in cars and dogs on motorbikes. They came in handy because I saved them and gave them to the kids who knocked on Halloween.
