Morri, how long have you been buying cereal? A while back (I foorget 5-8 years maybe) there was a big news blitz that the cereal companies were ripping off the public, price fixing, and the like. So in response they reduced the prices from $6 a box to $3-4 a box. Now, along with everything else, they are back up to $4-5 a box and the boxes are getting smaller. I always look for the sales, and yes Target and Walmart type stores are cheeper than Grocery chains.

And BTD, you actually eat the serving size of 3/4 cup? That's like 3 spoonfulls! I would have never thought anyone did that!!

Yes, I do. Cheerio's is a cup I believe, and much more than 3 spoonfulls. Grapenuts is half a cup (and super fattenig!

) which is also more than 3 spoonfulls. Don't use such a big spoon
