OREO 100th Birthday Cookie Jar

OREO is celebrating its' 100th Birthday this year (1912-2012) and to commemorate the occasion, the company is doing a promotion where you can get a special edition OREO Cookie Jar!

Billed "America's Favorite Cookie" I happen to like OREOs well enough to go ahead and pull the trigger on this cookie jar.  The collector side of me had a hard time saying no to the offer...plus I just thought it would look cool if it was put in to use!

Here is the unboxing and review:



Overall this thing is very nice!  Any OREO fan or cookie jar collector would be proud to have this piece in their collection....100th Anniversaries don't come around too often either, so it makes the piece that much more special.

Mine had a ding, but I don't think that would be a production wide issue.

My only real valid complaints are the lid.  I felt a satin/flat paint would have been better to show off the textured effect and the gasket on the lid doesn't seal up super tight (which is good and bad).  I honestly thought this would be plastic and figured the lid would thread on and off....The quality is very nice.

All you have to do to get one is collect 2 specially marked UPCs (they will mention OREO Cookie Jar Offer and can only be found on Regular OREO packages...not Double Stuffed), print off the order form, and send a check for $13.  4-6 Weeks later you will have your special OREO 100th Birthday Cookie Jar show up at your house or office.

All you need to do now is admire the piece and stock it with OREO cookies!
