Show By Jijne Fuller. Wendy flew back into my kitchen clutching three empty Cheerios packages that I had requested. Only minutes before she had been standing there in tears thinking about the fate of her precious collection of boxes and labels that her husband had ordered her to throw out. "Here are the Cheerios boxes," Wendy said. "Now, you promised to tell me how I could cut down on the size of my proof-of-purchase collection. Where do we start?" "Let's trade proofs," I said. "Have you sent for the Kellogg's 75th Anniversary An-niversary Fun Book?" "No, but I bet my kids would love it!" I offered her three Kellogg's Corn Flakes side panels in exchange for the bottoms of her three Cheerios boxes, which I needed for the Lone Ranger Deputy Kit Offer. "That's a deal," said Wendy. "But do I need a refund form to get the book?" "No, none of the Kellogg's premium offers require forms," I told her. "Just cut the proof-of-purchase The Coupon Clipper seals trom these Kellogg's side panels and send them to P.O. Box 5019, Kalamazoo, Mich., 49003, before March 1, 1982." I have never traded proofs of purchase before," said Wendy. "Is this the way it's done? " "You can trade proofs one for one or according to the values of the offers," of-fers," I said. "I think the Anniversary Fun Book is just about equal in value to the Lone Ranger Deputy Kit. "It's a little easier to figure with cash refunds. If three box tops brings you a $1.50 refund, each of them has a trading value of 50 cents and should be traded for other box tops and labels of about the same trading value." "I have saved up 30 Cheerios boxes," said Wendy. "How many should I trade?" "Keep about 10 of them and trade the rest," I advised. "You can save space by folding those that you keep flat." Wendy asked whether there were any other methods that she could use to cut down on the space needed for her proof collection. 'The big family-size boxes still taR up a lot of room even if you fold them flat," I said. "For most of them, you can save just the 'big four.' "Cut ouf the box tops, net-weight statements, Universal Product Code symbols and proof-of-purchase seals. Be sure to write down the- product name and size on each of these proofs. Then use a paper clip or staple to keep them together. "You can save even more space by carefully peeling the label portion of the proof from the cardboard Denina it." "That should help me get rid of about three cartons of unnecessary cardboard," said Wendy. "Do you have any other ways that I can save space?" "If you want, you can collect just the popular proofs - that is, the ones currently being asked for by the Continued Page B-4 Hope of Utah Yard Sale Have a used bike that is just sitting around?
