To launch the new Butterfinger Comedy Network on Yahoo!, Nestlé USA made a surprise announcement on April 1, 2008 that it was officially retiring the name Butterfinger® and changing the name of the popular candy bar to "The Finger." After spreading the word to consumers nationwide, Butterfinger revealed that the name change was really an elaborate prank to celebrate April Fool's Day.

Now you have a chance to own a piece of history by bidding on one or more of these 500 limited edition "Finger Bars."

The Finger Bar features a custom-designed wrapper that matches the exact font, colors and wrapper copy of a real Butterfinger® bar. One 2.1oz Butterfinger bar is included in every Finger Bar wrapper.

This auction is being run as a Dutch Auction which enables multiple identical items to be sold at once, and enables multiple winners. Here’s how the bidding works:

  1. Select the quantity you want to bid on and the price per bar you are willing to pay.
    Place your bid and keep watching – as the auction progresses you’ll be able to see how many bars you’re winning and at what price.

  2. At any time, you can increase the price you’re willing to pay per bar, or the number of bars you want. The bid history will only reflect the lowest price bid – that’s the price per bar winning bidders will pay when the auction ends.
