As a kid, I remember those cereal boxes that said "Free Inside" on the box. They always ended up in the cart & my mom rarely noticed.
And "Cracker Jack" always had a toy in the box.
If any of you remember the "Super Ball," Green Giant canned vegetables sent me a free Green one after I sent in the label from the can.

I remember it so well!

Not the green super ball though.

Even laundry detergent boxes came with "Free Inside" offerings.

Oh, how I remember the Kool-Aid drink mix. Our plant used to make it along with Tang, Kool-Aid Pudding, Stove Top & many more.

Kool-Aid was a favourite in our house!

It takes me back to summertime, sweltering hot outside, sitting at the supper table with freshly sliced garden grown cucumbers and tomatoes on the table, along with whatever else mom made for supper that night, and in the centre of the table a big fresh jug of Kool-Aid!

I still remember the moisture water droplets that would form on the outside of the juice jug, and boy, how refreshing it was! I was never one for sweet stuff as a kid, so the more diluted, the better!

And yes, Tang, too!
 
I also remember "Flavor Straws." A paper straw filled with chocolate or strawberry flavoring that was released when you stuck it in milk.
I didn't bother with the milk; I just wanted the sugar, so I ate the inside of the straw & part of the paper, too.
