Would you believe someone is actually selling an old Marathon on eBay? 15 years past its sell-by-date! Even more unbelievable - the bidding has reached £3.20!

Just checked his other items - you could also own a vintage Wispa!

I did think after I posted that you might be interested! The Wispa is only at £1.99 if you fancy a punt...

I just looked at this auction. I wonder if he found it in the back of a cupboard or kept it on purpose.

Even I clean out my cupboards more often than that!


That reminds me of one of my mom's friends, who could smell something funny in her daughter's room. She thought they had mice and one had died, or that there was something wrong with the plumbing. Then one day she opened a cupboard and found a half-eaten yoghurt.


'Oh, that's where I put that!' her daughter said. 'I didn't want the rest of it, so I hid it'.


'When was this?', her mom asked.


'Oh, about three years ago', her daughter replied...

When I was little I bought a Marathon and when I opened it, it was covered in mould  That was around the time that Mars bars supposedly had rat poison in them (remember that??)


I bet the ebay one is mouldy inside

If chocolate is mouldy, it usually means it's got wet
