Never say never because you not live live twice, sometimes you live thrice … we’re back, baby … So, if you can’t find the mainline card, Mr. Short Stuff is ready for action.

You can live, drink and eat a full CARS 2 life … Already in stores … saw this at Target – on sale, only $.96 a box for “dinner.” Yes, it looks like a blend of CARS 1 & CARs 2 artwork, probably because Kraft started printing these boxes a while back and since they […]
