Cereal!

I was so excited to see the sale and coupons on the Frosted Mini Wheats cereal! It is our favorite cereal and I don't think it's been at such a low price in almost a year. I know seventeen boxes may seem a little excessive, but we have already finished one box... and it's only been one week. I was also able to purchase a lot of produce this week. The vanilla yogurt with fresh chopped strawberries and the granola that I purchased last week make a yummy dessert. Now all I need is some milk for all that cereal! How did your week go?


Total before sales and coupons: $465.91
Total paid, including tax: $55.13
