We all have fun playing Revel roulette but we can get
whole bags of Maltesers, toffee and raisin Poppets.
Forget the orange and coffee ones. However, we
can't get a whole bag of Counters any more - the flat,
disk shaped ones. Who else would like to buy a
whole bag of them? I seem to remember that the
Counters bag was mainly blue?

I would love to buy them again. They were delish. It doesn't make any sense to me.

do you remember the galaxy counters with white numbers on them

I remember numbers but the only white thing I remember is the bag - with a giraffe on.

Do you remember Cadbury's Toffee Buttons? They were out for a short time at the end of the 60s/early 70s?

No you're right, the numbers were white. They were around for quite a while after the numbers disappeared though.

I thought it was an owl on the bag? LOL whatever it was I remember the white bag. I LOVED counters, my Nan used to buy us a bag every Saturday!

Who remembers Olly Owl, Geoffrey Giraffe, Percy Pelican, and Clive the Camel from those lovely white Galaxy Counters packets?

If I correctly remember, there were also large numbers on the front, though I thought they were red and not white, but my memory could be playing tricks on me!!

On the back, we were asked to help our particular character to count his Galaxy Counters.

Bring 'em Back!!
