Went to my local Kroger grocery chain this Sunday. Saw General Mills cereals on sale at prices
below 3 bucks for a huge box. Got home. Got an email from another Itchmo poster, very
different part of the country, saying the same thing about cereals on sale at her local
Publix market. Anyone else seeing this too generous to maybe not be suspicious
phenomenon? I'm in the Southwest. Other poster is on the East Coast. Sorry to post this
in food recalls because it's not a recall. Just want to find out if others are seeing it, too.
Supply-and-demand? Some other motive?

eta: 1 pound 9 oz box of Honeynut Cheerios, 2 for 5 bucks here.

We have 2 boxes for $3.00.  I have never seen it so low, even with lower gas prices a year or two ago.  These a regular sized boxes, a savings of $2. 39.  We are in Tampa.

A wise decision, Karen. Ever notice how much "extruded art" cereals resemble pet food kibble?
Plus the ingredient lists read like a Who's Who for possibly hiding the m-word. But cheaper than
the Dollar Menu, even when you add in half a banana. So some mornings necessary. Hope it
doesn't have an "off-taste" like the September 17 recalled cereals. The joke could be on the consumer ...
that's why I asked what people were seeing. Just never ever seen it this cheap, not for years.
Trying to alternate with Bob's Red Mill oatmeal and barley. But some billing cycles just not possible.

I haven't noticed dramatic price reductions in organic cereals.  And organic wheat flour prices don't seem lower.  Just got some for making bread.

Organic cereal has not gone down in price here but hasn't gone up either. Do not eat the other brands as do not know how safe they are anymore. The Brown Rice crips contain organic whole grain brown rice, organic fruit juice concentrate (apple, peach, pear or pineapple) sea salt. The Rice Crunch-Ems have Milled rice, corn bran, evaporated can juice, salt, natural vitamin E.
