55 Cents for Cereal!



A friend of mine here in Maple Valley introduced me to a new way of grocery shopping (thanks Rachel). I have been catching great deals here and there but today I had my biggest shopping trip. After 10 transactions and 3 trips to the car (because I couldn't fit it all in the cart), I got cereal for 55 cents a box! I bought 90 boxes of cereal! It doesn't expire until Nov. 2010 so with four kids and a husband that likes cereal a lot, we will eat it all. I'm not even sure that is a years supply as much as my family likes cereal. It was fun, exhilarating and I got kudos from all the cashiers. It was like getting an A on a test. Can I post my receipts on the refrigerator to show off? My friend describes it as a "high". I never liked grocery shopping before but it has become an adventure and I love it now!
