Every kid loves opening a cereal box to discover a prize.... And even though he's not a kid anymore, I thought my husband might appreciate this little Midweek Romance.
So, I bought a box of his favorite cereal (I know what you're thinking..."Rice Squares?"...yup, he's adventurous, that husband of mine) and carefully opened it so no proof of tampering would be evident when he opened it for the first time. I put his "prize" inside (he'd wanted this DVD for a while) and sealed it back up. I let him pour his cereal before me that day. He saw the label on the box and asked, "Did this come on the box?" I said, "Ya..weird, huh?" He opened it to find his movie and looked at me in disbelief. He still wasn't sure if it came that way from the store or not! (He's not usually this gullible...)
For the prize, you could use a variety of things:
1. A love note
2. A love coupon
3. An item that he/she wants that actually fits in the box
4. Tickets to a movie/event he/she wants to see or go to
5. A favorite candy bar
6. A Lotto Card
7. An invitation for a romantic evening: Love Doctor, Camp out at Home

8. Gift Card to their favorite store (for no reason at all)
9. Gift certificate to a restaurant for that weekend

Oh my gosh, this is such a fun idea as well. Honestly, Cher, how do you come up with all of these?
I'm definitely going to have to use this really soon. My husband has been dying to see Transformers 2 at the IMax. I'm thinking I need to get some tickets asap! Plus, I'm going grocery shopping really soon too. Perfect timing!

Marvelous idea!! It would be so good of me to do this!! My husband is always up before me and has a bowl of cereal for breakfast then leaves for work...this idea would be PERFECT for him!! :)
such a cute idea! I wish my hubby ate cereal. I'll have to find a way to adapt this somehow. :)
This is cute, cute, cute!!! My hubby doesn't really eat cereal but he eats TONS of candy. I will have to think of a way to incorporate this idea into candy. haha
Such a great idea!! I always have a hard time surprising my hubby, he always beats me to the punch. This'll be fun!
Cute! I love that it's quick and easy too! I will definitely try this!
