    If memory serves, those were made by Tupperware and only could be purchased at a “Tupperware Party “ at someone’s house.

    Seems about right…. I snagged mine from my moms house when I moved out…. I’m sure she gave it to me.

    My mom had a Tupperware party, she got some free stuff out of hosting. I just remember all the drinking, smoking, and laughing , it was a thing back in the day.

    Remember being lured into someone's home with promises of drinks and good times only to find out it was an Amway party?
    :facepalm:

    Or did that only happen to me?

    I'm not sure.
    I think it was mostly a pyramid scam. And everyone was always at the bottom.

    I think it was designed by a male…. which would explain why it looks like it does

    One meeting I used to attend gave out marbles on chip/medallions as well.

    A friend of mine did that in the late 90s. He wasn't the super salesman type, just liked the products. He did have a small thing at his house one time but told us all up front what it was and worst case it was a chill night together with friends.

    Spotted it right away.

    I think I get it now... The numbers have always made perfect sense. But now I see.. the hieroglyphic linework looks kinda like a flower bud beginning to open. So you can only use this cup to measure flour! That's gotta be it right?
