I made our Kellogg’s Fuel for School Rebate Purchase at Walmart last night.  Here’s how I spent it:

4 boxes of Kellogg’s Frosted Mini Wheats @ $2.33 each
4 boxes of Kellogg’s Pop Tarts @ $1.88 each
2 packages of Keebler Fudge Shoppe Co0kies @ $2.88 each

Used:
(2) $1.50/2 Frosted Mini Wheats coupons here
(2) $1/2 Pop Tarts from RP 6/7/09
(2) $1/1 Keebler Fudge Shoppe Cookies here (not sure if this is still available)

In the end, I spent $.46 per item after coupons and rebate.  We are going camping this weekend and needed some snacks that will fit into our All You Grocery Challenge budget.  Plus each of the four Frosted Mini Wheats boxes had a coupon booklet inside which included $5 of coupons to use on breakfast foods–including a $1/1 Frosted Mini Wheats coupon.  Definitely will use that!

So, here’s what I’m thinking.  Why not check your Walmart to see if they have 10 boxes of Frosted Mini Wheats with the coupon booklets inside.  Then pop those babies open before you buy them and use the coupons in the box?  You could possibly score 10 boxes of Frosted Mini Wheats for only $.33 each after coupons and rebate!  (You may want to bring along a couple of the other coupons listed above in case you can’t find these boxes though!)

So, I want to know!  How are you spending your Fuel for School Rebate?  I’ve seen some GREAT deal and moneymakers around the web.  I’m providing a Mr. Linky today to let you link up your blog post about it.  Or if you don’t have a blog, leave a comment and let us know!  It always fun to find out how creative you all can get with your HOT deals!

    Haha! And you know I would too! (ok…maybe I’d tear ’em open before I got in line. =)

    Nicely Done! I was hoping to score some of those boxes with coupons inside with my purchases too, but no luck. I did okay though, getting 10 boxes of cereal FREE after rebate and coupons. I love the image of you standing in the aisle at Wal Mart ripping through cereal boxes for the coupons! 🙂
