Dunno, what does a box of Cracker Jack cost these days...?
I checked; Amazon has Cracker Jack THREE boxes for $4.53
That's sold by a third party, but fulfilled by Amazon.
I've been told that the current prizes are stickers to unlock games on
their website.
They haven't had microprocessors as prizes in a long time.
The switch to games saved money, and protected them from liability
lawsuits for choking on a prize (an 80286 might do some damage if
swallowed)
So far, Arduinos are still more expensive than stickers. But, keep
waiting.

The price is 25 cents, or $2,500 when you need one.
I was more a lucky elephant person.
