I Will Pay CASH for YOUR Pot Noodle!
I made this!
Hi everyone! I'll cut straight to the chase, I am looking to find a Pot Noodle of the 90s/00s 'explosion' design. If you have one in the back of your cupboard or you know where might be a good place to check, I'm all ears. Thank you very much!

Pot Noodles are
the perfect apocalypse bunker stockpile food, so there must be millions cached in the secret shelters of paranoid suburban conspiracy nuts. I have always eaten all pot noodles on sight, so I can only wish you luck!

Be careful with supernoodles
The inside of the packaging can degrade. I took some ancient ones camping a couple of years ago, ignored the warning flavour and was shitting burning plastic smell for 2 days.
Would do again.

No pots, I do have an original, pristine condition PN horn.

Thank you for the offer
Thanks for getting in touch. Unfortunately, I believe I do have one of these in the loft. I've acquired quite a lot of the promotional items over my lifetime but never thought to actually save one of the pots themselves!

A bit too much powder for my liking.
Usually a bit better if you brush all the powder off then they are a nice crunchy snack. I heard some people put boiling water on them - whatever next, cold milk on cereals?

I think you may have your quotation marks in the wrong place:
...as a "comedian"

Oh, a ‘comedian’. It would make a nice change on here.

I'm known to locate certain things from time to time.
No promises but I'll keep an eye out. It's exactly the sort of thing I sometimes come across.
Roughly how much are they worth to you, and what range of condition is acceptable to you? If you're offering triple figures per pot, I'll consider focusing on this as my main job.

Well, if you do ever locate your marbles, be sure to let us know.

Most of my marbles are stored in a number of large conical flasks near where I used to keep the wool.
The rest are in a number of bowls dotted about the place and are too big or too valuable to chuck in with the common marbles.
I also have a small number of A-Team marbles that are, I believe, in a box in the cellar.
Don't try to marble shame me.

Cheers!
I suppose off the top of my head I'd be looking at somewhere between £30 and £40 as a starting figure. In the ball park that it would be a feel-good amount for someone who does just have one in the back of the cupboard or in their shed etc. If it turns out they are in fact extremely collectable and they go for hundreds between collectors, then I may need to go back to the drawing board.
Condition wise, either empty and washed out or sealed and in general good condition overall would be my aim. Thanks!

had no idea that the 'slag' pot noodle ad campaign had been banned and shown only after the 9pm watershed
