196. Dallas Cowboys Cereal Box

Manufacturer: General Mills
original price: US$ 3*
Value today: US$ 119*

General Mills introduced Wheaties in 1924, and they were originally called “Washburn's Gold Medal Whole Flakes”. Made from wheat and bran, this cereal would become known for its box. Wheaties boxes often featured high-level athletes, which fit the cereal's "breakfast of champions" theme.

A box of Wheaties that resold for US $ 100 or more features the Dallas Cowboys. The Cowboys were virtually undefeated in the nineties, with Super Bowl wins in 1993, 1994 and 1996. The Wheaties have put them in the box every time, and those boxes, featuring players like Troy Aikman, Daryl Johnson and Emmitt Smith, are often found in the eBay and Etsy.
