    The one I remember most was with Bugs Bunny and Elmer Fudd.

    I loved those ads! "Sorry about the delay, but my lot wouldn't budge till they'd had their weetabix!"
    :D

    Later in the 90s there were musical ones with Driving instructors and Samson and Delilah, they were quite good too.

    Do ye remember the stickers that used to come with Weetabix in the mid 90s? I remember Jurassic Park and Star Trek ones. There was the background of a scene on the back of the box and you stuck the stickers on that.

    Don't know if anyone remembers these?

    They were a set of stickers that came with Weetabix in the 80's. I had some of them as a kid and stuck them round my bedroom. Interestingly they would glow in the dark and result being glow-in-the-dark images of vampires and skulls would be the last thing I'd see at night before I went to sleep. Defo gave me nightmares!

    They're quite rare these days. I bought a complete unused set on ebay recently and I won't tell you how much I paid as you'd think i was mental. :D

    wasn't there a weetabix ad that ran in the 90s with the kinks song Lola?
    think it was like a boy scouts but they changed the words of the song

    was only looking it up a few weeks ago but can't find anything about it
