If you're ready to trade in your Junior Mints for something new, check out these geeky gamer Nintendo mints from fred flare. Guaranteed to keep your friends wondering and wanting more, the container may look like a regular Nintendo controller, when it's actually filled with mini white breath mints—not your usual Altoids box that's for sure. Each box costs $6. And if it turns out you'd rather go back to your Junior Mints, keep the box and refill with whatever you'd like—No one will ever know the difference! Are you a fan?

    Picked these up at the Nintendo store in NYC. They're actually really good mints; no artificial (i.e. chemically tasting) sweeteners!

    I actually just finished a container I bought at FYE. They're pretty tasty, not as strong as Altoids.

    I found these at a Cost Plus World Market, and bought a couple. They're tasty and the tin is so awesome! I keep in in my purse for little things that usually float to the bottom.

    A couple of things:

    #1 - I just bought a tin of these a few days ago, and they just arrived in the mail. I absolutely love the tin because I can stash 12 Nintendo DS games in it, as well as a few extra stylus's & a screen cleaning cloth (I stuffed the mints, and my god there are a lot of them, in an old Altoids tin I'd been using to keep my games in).

    #2 - You can get the mints @ Fractal Spin for $3.50 instead of $6.00. It's half the price, and you can get cool things like CD samplers and cute little paper crafts with your order. Personally, I'm all about the freebies.

    #3 - I really, really love these little buggers. I'm planning on getting some more for myself to use as DS Game cases, as well as snagging a couple for Nintendo-Centric friends like myself.

    I've had them. They're just mints, but the tin is great for holding pencils.
