    That is not bad at all. Especially since 9 boxes of cereal could have cost you around 36.00 alone!!! Way to go!

    Way to go!!

    I used to do that when I was married and always made out like a bandit.

    Living alone now though, I tend to shop differently than I did back then.

    You did great!

    Cereal is the worst grocery crusher. I tend to buy off brands in big bags.

    I too like to stock up on dish soap when I can get it at a good price. Just good common sense in my opinion because you are going to use it and it won't go bad or take up huge amounts of room.

    I am happy for your great deals and smart shopping on your part.

    Great shopping, esp on the cereal. We are in serious need of some cereal stockpiling.

    I agree. Amazing how much they will charge for a box of cereal.
