    Default Cheap Cereal

    My DH and I went grocery shopping today. We found some good bargains, but this take the cake.

    Albertson's had selected Post cereals on sale for 5 for $3.35 which is $0.67 a box. I had 2 $1 off 2 coupons for the selected cereals, which means I got 5 boxes for $1.35 or $0.27 a box.
    And here I thought $1 or $1.50 a box was a good deal. I may have to go back later and see if they have more.

    I love cereal deals! I have about 12 boxes in my storage room. DH told me not to buy more cereal until what we have is all gone...it's so hard not to buy them when they're that cheap!

    That is what I thought as well. The advertised price was 2 for $3.14 which I thought as a good price especially when I had a couple good coupons. I was not expecting the deal I got.
