It’s been a long time since I felt giddy about grocery shopping.

This was one of those weeks.

Both Giant and Landis have hot General Mills deals this week, so I’ve tried to make the most of them and stock up.

Here is my Giant trip:

Pictured: 16 boxes of General Mills cereals, 1 gallon of milk and (3) coupons for a FREE gallon of milk (up to $4.50), a package of strawberries

Total: I spent $15.42 for everything pictured above.  (Learn more about this deal here.)

Saved: $42.50 (which doesn’t include my three free milks I haven’t snagged yet.)

Here is the deal: Buy (4) select General Mills cereals, get $4 off your order plus a FREE gallon of milk

Coupons used: $.75/1 Cheerios Multi Grain Cereal, $1/2 Cheerios Multi Grain Cereal, $1/2 General Mills Cereal,  $0.50 /1 Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cereal, $0.50/1 Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cereal,  $0.75/1 Cheerios Peanut Butter or Dulce de Leche, $1/2 Cheerios Coupon, and several General Mills coupons here (not sure if all of these coupons are still available)

Here is my Landis shopping trip (actually two trips):

Pictured: (4) Dole frozen fruit cups, (5) Yoplait Kids’ Yogurt multipacks, (1) Smucker’s Jelly, (1) 1/2 lb. of deli cheese, (4) Stonyfield Yogurts, (4) Yoplait Lights with Granola 2-packs, (2) Pillsbury Frozen Pancakes, (8) Nature Valley Granola Bars or Granola Thins, (10) Progresso Soups, (2) Dole Frozen Fruit Smoothies

Not pictured: (2) Dole Frozen Fruit Smoothies, (2) Yoplait light with Granola, (1) Yoplait Kids’ Yogurt multipack, (6) Progresso soups, (1) Smucker’s Jelly

Total: I paid $32.69 plus got a $2 catalina good on my next order

Saved: $99.49

    Hi Kaley –

    Love, love, love those cereal deals. I did one earlier this week and plan to do another before it expires.

      I know. I have the hardest time buying cereal any other time because these deals are so amazing!
