Did you guys see the banner that over 30,000,000 boxes of Eggies have been manufactured…we must be in Snuggie territory. Way to go EN, APG and Betsy…I wish I was Stan right now :-)

Ron, Reba’s still ahead. The 30-Million Eggies means (6 Eggies in a box) X ( 5-Million boxes ) = 30 Million. So Reba’s still safe….for now. ;-)

Hey Betsy: You beat the current Queen of country music to the 30 mil mark. I bet Reba has some eggies in her kitchen.

Wow Roger, that’s the very BEST sighting yet! Wish I was there, I’d serve ya!

Hey Laurie, Eggies has a FB page. It’d be awesome if you could post your recipe there. Michael Heagerty (Ringo) posted a wonderful recipe a few months ago. Sounds yummy!

My next invention: a sleep aid for G8 inventors who have difficulty sleeping because their product has become a worldwide sensation…lol…

It’s amazing how ideas for inventions surface at the most unsuspecting times…lol :)

I’m all for an EN convention :)…can we plan it for after August, though? (That’s when I’ll be back home in the states, from Kuwait…)

Frank’s right…it’s still sometimes hard to sleep. Larry, I think I’ll still be this immature and excited 10 years from now. Even if Eggies aren’t still on a shelf—-it’s just been such a wild story!

Hey Patricia, Wisconsin eh? Let me work on that! We still need an EN convention! Now that would be a blast! ;-)

Betsy told me that sometimes in the middle of the night she gets up for a drink of water,
then “remembers”, and is suddenly WIDE AWAKE!

I would constantly be having to tell myself “THIS IS REALLY REAL!! WOW, THIS IS REAL!!”

I get to see Greg Saturday night! Wow, I’m just all over the place! :-) I will tell you all that if you ever get to NY, meeting Adrienne is a must! Hey, we should have invited Scott and Daymond to join us. (Like that would have ever happened, ha, ha)

Howie, you and your wife are DARLING! So glad you replaced your cartoon head. BTW, it is a thrill to have a product on a shelf. But,it’s still unbelievable to me. I get double thrilled when I see them next to Gyro Bowls. It’s amazing the clout EN and their sponsors have!

Tracey, they manufactured all of those right away to saturate the market and keep the knock-offs away. But, now—-the good news is, they’ve sold them!

I just saw Eggies next to Gyro bowl on a store shelf in our local Indiana mall! How cool!

The initial post by Eric was 8 months ago, and the count was 30 million boxes back then. How many Eggies have been manufactured as of now? I can’t imagine!

Haha! I know… I’m afraid I might cut them in half or drill holes in them while trying to make something new with them. I think I might add a propeller and some remote control parts and make some flying Eggies. Lol!!!
