Synopsis

It's flashy, shiny and new! It's the latest lunchbox, the Lunchmaster 3000. Olie and Billy are dying to get one. Olie even tries out his best sales pitch on his parents, but it's no use. "Not everything new is as good as you think; sometimes it's the classics that really leave a lasting impression," Olie is told. Still not satisfied and quite envious of Screwy (who has the new lunchbox), he makes the big trade. Now to Olie's dismay, his great new lunchbox eats everything in sight! It's a good thing that dad still has his old lunchbox, which turns out to be a hit when Olie takes it to school.
