I know we still have a giant Ziploc packed with points. I should have mailed them all in before the turn of the century, because even if I still desperately wanted a child size bike with radio handlebars (I kind of do still desperately want a child size bike with radio handlebars) or another Barbie doll, gone are the days when such treasures were available from the Kool-Aid Wacky Warehouse. You have your choice of a T-shirt, pitcher, towel or—and this last one is a doozey—a Kool-Aid packet holder (limit 20 per household). No walkie-talkies? No Big Wheels? No bikes of any kind? Sigh.
The Kool-Aid site is all hip and happening, made to look kind of like a MySpace page for the Kool-Aid Man, with music and videos and prizes—at least for the next year and three months. Act now, but make sure there will be some packet holders left for the rest of us.
