Good price cereal?

[SLnew]

Just want to ask if this is already a good price to buy?

Kellorogs cereals, 3 for $6, with coupon $1 off 2 box
Cheerios honey nut cereals, 2/$6, with coupon $1 off 1 box

people always say they buy these at $1 per box......but I never see that low price, so wonder if it is already good?

thanks

I think it's a decent deal.

Cereal is usually $3.49 to $3.99 per box.
3 boxes for $6.00 is $2.00 per box
With you Q, it's now 3 boxes for $5.00, that's about $1.67 per box or over half off the regular retail price.

What you may have been able to do is if the sale was 3/$6.00, did you have to buy 3 boxes to get the sale price? Of could you have purchased two boxes ($2.00 each)?

If you could have purchased 2 boxes for $4.00, then used your $1.00 coupon
this would have reduced your cost to 2 boxes for $3.00 or $1.50 each.

I think you did okay!

I thought it was a great deal. When you purchase 3 boxes, you get a coupon for a free gallon of milk. Purchase 5 boxes and you get a coupon for 2 free gallons of milk. Purchase 7 and you get a coupon for 3 free gallons of milk. Once you subtract the $2 (best $ I've found) for each of the 3 gallons, it makes it 7 boxes of cereal for about $1.14 each. I bought 21 boxes and ended up with 9 free gallons. By the way, make sure you buy them 7 at a time and not all 14, 21 at the same time. It is 3 gallons for 7 OR MORE, so you'd only get 3 gallons. I can't beat that...at least not yet (just started)!

I did the cereal deal today, bought 6 boxes of Frosted Flakes had 3 Q's $1/2 so for $6 bucks I got 6 boxes of cereal and 2 gallons of milk !!

maybe it will be a better deal for this week, as I just read the preview,

seems like sth
5/$10 for cheerios
3/$6 for kelloggs
2/$3 for Post cereals

if there are coupons for them, it will be great!

see if someone will be nice to find some coupons and share the deal with us

FYI-Only the Kellogg's cereals have the milk deal.

There is a $1/3 coupon on the Shaw's website for selected Kellogg's cereal.
