HERITAGE BREAKERS - I NEED YOUR BUBBLE GUM

My daughter brought home a flyer from school last week for an effort called Operation Shoebox - New Jersey. They are collecting items to ship to our troops overseas. One of those items happens to be Gum and the first thing I thought of is the 192 pieces I got from cracking a case of Topps Heritage. Anyone else looking for something to do with their gum? This is the perfect opportunity. I am looking for donations for my daughter to bring to school. I'll take whatever you've got - 100, 500, 1,000 or 2,000. I am not looking to purchase it but I will pay for some of the shipping costs if need be.

This is a great opportunity to give back to our troops. Please e-mail me at isellcards@optonline.net if you are interested in getting rid of your gum. The deadline to bring items in is March 12. If anyone has any questions or wants more info on Operation Shoebox please let me know.

I look forward to hearing from my fellow collectors.

Thanks.

Dave

  • How am I spamming the board with it??????? There are strings of posts on the subject of what to do with all of it. This is a response to those posts. If you don't want to contibute then that's fine. But I have a solution for all of those collectors that wondered what to do with it.

    For a night with your future wife, I'll give you all the gum you want!!! image
  • Hey dave,

    Great idea but I don't think the unwrapped gum will ever make it too the troops. Too risky. Why not hit BJ's or Costco or whatever and buy a nice big box of juicyfruit for the boys.

    Best of luck, Bob
