I have notice that also except this past two weeks the stores are starting to get them in again with new dates of Nov 2002. Agree that Wal Mart is the "least expensive" unless you have a membership to Sams or Cosco. For one cereal the saves at Wal Mart was more than a $1.00 and even found some products with save $1.00 coupons on them..well they were there...
