Right, I know this is completely random, and i am a complete weirdo...but we used to have lucky charms in the U.K. They were my favourite. I could seriously eat box after box of those badboys. Then one evil day, general mills decided that they would crush my soul and completely remove them from the U.K shelves because they were too unhealthy. SO WHAT? If i get uber fat that's my problem right? I managed to get my hands on a box 3 years ago when my ex boyfriend went to the U.S on holiday and I begged him to bring me back a box in his hand luggage. I really did make that box last...he also bought me a lucky charms t shirt..but i cannot eat that. You have no idea how jealous i am that people in america can just chuck these into their trollies in the local supermarket. :(
So, If there is ANYONE lovely enough to send me some in exchange for something from the U.K (GOSH, Barry M...your choice) i would be more than happy too. haha i know...im crazy.
Most people do makeup swaps..I seem to have put a slight twist on that.

I would definitely send you some Lucky Charms! If there's anything else that we have here in the US that is banned in the UK due to unhealthiness I can send you that too haha. Email me at sierracolfer@gmail.com if you're still interested in getting some Lucky Charms!

I live in canada on the border of the US and go over to the US all the time (like once or more a week).. So if you would like to do a swap I would be more than happy to.
ReplyDeleteI live in the US, if you want to do a swap I'd be happy to!
ReplyDeleteI would totally swap with you! I'm absolutely clueless on makeup so I need all the help possible..
ReplyDeleteAlso, I work at this garden centre called Longacres (its in Surrey) and they sell all sorts of American food :) including lucky charms and poptarts. oh and jelly bean drinks, but I'm pretty sure its incredibly unhealthy..(the shocking bright colour of the beverage says it all..) Email me on beverly_44@hotmail.com if you're interested :)
Did you ever get a hold of any lucky charms?
ReplyDeleteYou can actually get them on amazon, there ist also a cheaper version by another brand cause I think the prices for the real Lucky Cahrms are rediculous, I stocked up on those lol Forgot the name but I can have a look in the pantry if you want it =)
ReplyDeleteI cannot imagine life without Lucky Charms. I am so sorry! Us Americans have it pretty good I guess. hahaha Zoe if you ever need Lucky Charms I have got your back :)

I heard that lucky charms were banned because some people thought the leprachaun mascot would be offensive to some people in Britain. :P
