PROMPT:
What would YOU put in this Cracker Jack Box
using 33 LETTERS or LESS? [not Words]
I had my Toy Surprise Jack-ed...
And would Love to know...what is in Yours
but please...NO Adult Toys...Keep PG-13...
My Munchkin might get to the box before me...
Not a pleasant surprise for a ten year old...
However- be as 'Creative' as You like...
** Thanks Mom, for this precious memory of You!! --- Story revealed after contest closes. 
**********************************************************************************************
Story - as promised:
When I was a teen and my Dad had passed away, my mom had always called my dad her loveable knight in shiny armour. She felt many lonely nights after he had been gone several years and she still thought of him as her knight. One day she was working at a dry cleaners and when she was cleaning the facility she found a 1 or so inch pewter knight in shiny armor. I want to also feel loved like she did knight n all.

You might have many Ladies trying to jack Your box
and wanting Your toy Or do the bait and switch on ya
And I have to say- I chuckled loudly when I read Your title...
My Cracker Jacks Toy...
Now...when I *first* digested it...I was seeing the derogatory meaning for
a White Male [being word Cracker]...jacking a toy
but I don't believe that was the meaning at all of course but I could not help
mentioning that Again... gotta keep that box safe for You have a treasured
prize there
Love the direction You took with this prompt
