Looking for the Count
 

Hi guys... I've been here and there and while living in college I have noticed something quite disturbing. Halloween is getting closer and closer and I haven't seen the Count...anywhere. Since the beginning of October I have been looking for Count Chocula but its nowhere to be found. I only had it for the first time last year but I have been hooked since. I've gone to every store and I... can't... get... any... explanation for the disappearance of the Count. I even promised my self I would buy enough boxes of cereal to stuff a shopping cart and this hit me from left field. I was prepared to buy at least 40 boxes. Usually I lurk around the TFP and it feels strange for me to be posting about something quite trivial but this is something I was looking forward to for a long time. Does anyone have the Count where they live? Does anyone know a reason why the cereal is gone? I'm really curious... and I need a new hobby.

Count Chocula?
It's in just about every grocery store, and "Super Store", that I shop at. Now, I haven't seen Frankenberry in a number of years...or Boo Berry in like...forever. But Count Chocula abounds.

Quisp ruled them all, though.

Erm, where do you live? Count Chocula may have been discontinued in certain area.

I live in Washington (west coast). I feel a little stupid for not thinking that it was not just in my area. Also I think I made a mistake. This should have been put in Tilted nonsense.

:D

Wow! There are all 3 kinds here in Canton. We have had them for years.

Dayum, another crazy person from the PNW. That makes at least two of us. :D

It's not uncommon for items to not be sold in certain areas.

A perfect example is BBQ Fritos.The best chips in the entire world.There is not a single chip I love as much as these.

The problem? They don't sell them in AR/TX/OK so I have no means of buying them.Although when I took a vacation to Florida, they had them at the hotel I stayed at(but not for long).

I hear you with regards to the Count.

When we lived in Columbus, we would shop at Big Bear. They carried all 3: Count, Frank, and Boo. Big Bear went under, Giant Eagle bought them out and apparently evicted them.

I haven't seen them anywhere where I live now. It's sad. Not even the Count, who I felt to be the ubiquitous of the bunch.

However, there is a silver lining. Chocolate Lucky Charms. Man, that has got to be the best cereal eh-heh-heh-v-e-r-r-r-r.

Really? I haven't see Boo, but I've had Count Chocula and Frankenberry within the last few months.
mmmmm... Chocolate Lucky Charms and cartoons. :D
