Hang on a minute - there were all those stupid sounding animals saying things like "I've got a two I've got a two." Then the other one couldn't decide if he had a six or a nine. Could well have been rabbits?

I don't remember the advert. How old are you 623058? Are you old enough to remember these adverts because I thought Galaxy counters had not been around for about 20 years now - or is my memory failing me?

The ad I'm remembering was in the 70's so you definitely wouldn't remember it. It caused a lot of giggling at school because of the "Is it a 6 or a 9" bit. I'm not sure what the animals were but they were really stupid sounding and could have been sort of goofy rabbits. What I am certain of is that the packet had a giraffe on it. OK?

Having looked on Google, somebody else was obviously of the same opinion!

Quote - think they had numbers on them and in fact there was a Galaxy Counter TV advert that got many complaints where kids were showing what numbers they'd got and one couldn't make up his mind if it was a 6 or a 9. He get turning it upside down and saying "69 69 69". This caused a lot of giggling when I was at school!

I was so naive, I don't remember any of that, I just
remember eating them, they were my favourite
sweets. Can someone please confim what colour
the packet was?

oldspice · « **Reply #10 on:** September 26, 2005, 07:59:13 am »

So Galaxy Counters were just like 'the chocolate one' in Revels. But obvioulsy made of Galaxy chocolate?

goldencup · « **Reply #12 on:** September 26, 2005, 02:54:19 pm »

Exactly. And they originally had numbers on, in white.

Thanks goldencup. I can now imagine what you are talking about. Shame
they are still not around as the Revels ones are nice as they do not
have the sugar shell on.

I have a terrible visual memory. What sweets were in
a blue bag with a picture of an owl on it? I thought it
was Counters....?
