Cereal Coupons
From LoveToKnow Save
If your family loves to eat cereal for breakfast, finding cereal coupons can be a great way to cut the cost of your monthly grocery bill. While cereal is a convenient option for your morning meal, getting your Lucky Charms fix can be rather pricey unless you're committed to doing some bargain shopping.
Finding Cereal Coupons
The best place to look for cereal coupons is in your Sunday newspaper. This is where grocery stores list their sales and promotions for the week. You will also find a coupon insert featuring deals for a number of products, including some of the most popular breakfast cereals.
If you're looking for printable online coupons, the following sites often have deals on breakfast cereals:
- Coupons, Inc.
- Coupons.com
- SmartSource.com
- EverSave.com
- CouponSurfer.com
- Upons.com
- CoolSavings.com
- Valuepage.com
Occasionally, manufacturer Web sites can also be good sources of coupons for your favorite products. For example, the General Mills site promoting Box Tops 4 Education offers different printable coupons each month – including coupons for cereals such as Cheerios and Trix.
When you find great cereal coupons, don't be afraid to stock up. If left unopened, cereal can be stored for several months. However, it's still a good idea to check the expiration dates on the products you plan to buy.
Switching Brands
If you don't have time to clip coupons, or you're simply looking for an even greater savings, you may want to investigate the benefits of switching to the store brand of your favorite cereal. Since these products often come in bags instead of boxes and don't have extensive advertising budgets, they can be as much as 50 percent cheaper than name brand items. If you think your children will object to this plan, switch the contents of the name brand box with the store brand counterpart and see if they can tell the difference.
