My Farm Fresh Trip 06/30

I’m not too happy looking over my receipt.  Three, count them, 3 coupons didn’t double!  I grabbed a few extra items, so I really didn’t know how much I should have been paying for my trip today.  I’ll probably head back up after LuLu’s nap, but it may be too late to do anything about it.  Also, I actually purchased 4 boxes of cereal for $0.50 each because I only had 7 boxes left in the cabinet.  I was starting to feel a little antsy without my usual 20 boxes.  I guess I donated too many a couple months ago.  Anyways,

    I went to Harris Teeter four times last week, three of the trips specifically to look for the Cinnabon cereal but they were always out. The manager told me (on the 4th trip) that it had been recalled, so I was not issued a rain check.

    Made me laugh with your comment about cereal. My kids finally said to me today that they "think we have enough cereal mom." I too feel the need for about 20 boxes or I get antsy.

    I don't think the cinnabon cereal was recalled. I have read the press releases and don't remember seeing it. Plus, I was able to pick it up today at farm fresh too. Hmm. wonder why they told you that.

    I just checked the Kellogg's recall website and the only cereals listed are select Apple Jacks, Corn Pops, Fruit Loops and Honey Smacks.

    I guess the manager at HT didn't know what they were talking about. Hummm

    My kids started saying lately, "Mom where's all the cereal?" They're used to looking in the cabinet and seeing it stacked to the ceiling. Julie, tell your kids once you hit 25 you have enough 🙂
