Hi, We'd love to learn more about cereal deals. How do you, as the article reports, get brand name cereal for no more than $0.50?
HI Rudy, those cereals in this blog post will actually be FREE. First, they were on sale for 2 for $5.00. Then I used a coupon for $1.00 off of 2, making the cost $4.00. Then I got a RR for $2.00 on my next purchse,saving me another $2.00 later. So, I paid $4.00 for the cereal, and I am sending in for the Kellogg's Back to School rebate and I will be getting $10.00 back on that rebate and making the $2.00 RR. So those 2 boxes were a money maker.
I recently got a few coupons for a free box of Rice Krispies Cereal and a free box of Frosted Mini Wheats. Both coupons were from Vocal Point. I will use those to get 2 more free boxes.
When I find a coupon for $1.00 off or $2.00 off, I will gather as many of the coupons as possible and stockpile. Aldi's cereal is $1.79 ( or around that price)and to me, that is too expensive. NOt to long ago, Grape Nuts came out with a new ceral and they had a $2.00 off one box. It was an IP coupon and I printed the coupon twice off of my computer and twice of my husbands computer. The cereal went on sale at Walgreens for $2.50 a box and I picked those up for 50 cents after coupon.
The thing to remember is you can't be brand specific and you have to stock up when the cereal is on sale.
A while ago, Sentry had a deal 6 boxes for $10.00 and get a free gallon of milk. I had coupons for $1.00 off each box of cereal making each box about .66 cents a box and I then had a coupon for $5.00 off your next grocery trip. I used that and paid nothing out of pocket.
I don't buy cereal unless I can get it around 50 cents a box or less.
I try to post the IP coupons that I find, so visit my blog every now and then for IP Coupons.
The most recent $2.00 off cereal coupon was for Honey Bunches of Oats with Pecans. Many readers where picking up those cereals for free or less than 50 cents.
That's super! Keep posting and sharing! We can learn a lot.
