Well, I've joined the crowd--Giant is selling the 18 oz box of cornflakes for 1.59 this week, and I got a few stares when I placed 10 of them on the checkout counter! Where are those recipes again?

Thanks, TribeFlyer. I'm down to my last 50 boxes of Corn Flakes. I guess its time to stock up again!

Well, I'm frustrated!
Here in N. Alabama all the new Corn Flakes boxes have arrived with a Disney Cruise contest. No AA coupons in site, except for the pricey cereals. I have yet to see one Crispex box with a coupon on it. Poor sportsmanship on Kellogg's part.

The Kelloggs website contest is only good for residents in the continental U.S., not Hawaii, etc. I wonder why?

Hmmmm, perhaps someone at Kelloggs doesn't understand that Hawaii is part of the US.

72 Boxes of Mini Wheats with raisins at $1.50 a box. I sure hope the people at the food bank don't get too constipated.

The HEB store in San Marcos, TX has the 18 oz Corn Flakes for $1.95 a box. If you can find a HEB that is near a WalMart Superstore then you may find lower prices as these stores have lower prices than other HEB stores to compete with WalMart. Any more lower prices in the Austin, Tx area?

Plenty of Kellogg's on the shelf in Plymouth, Indiana. Near South Bend. No bargains, but the availability is outstanding.

Oh, what store? Kroger's!

Texas Yankee -- that recipe sounds like one my grandmother used to make. Think I'll try it and reminisce some weekend!

Thanks for the advice. Two HEB stores in San Antonio had the 18 oz. for $1.86 & $1.89. My next stop will be Sam's.

Dealburp, let me know if Sams in San Antonio has them because they were not available in any of the Sams in Austin. The $1.86 at HEB was good. Wish I liked Corn Flakes! It is too hot in Texas to bake those cookies now. I am giving the Corn Flakes to needy folks.

On another note, does anyone know why two 33 cent stamps are required on every envelope containing 5 coupons? I weighed an envelope and it was well under 1 ounce. Not even a 55 cent stamp should be necessary. Did anyone who called the 800 number ask about this? Thanks!

Two 33 stamps are NOT necessary. That's either an error on Kellogg's part or an oversimplification based on the assumption that most people only have that value at home.

However, I'd check the accuracy of your scale. Unless you have a weightless envelope and shaved more off the coupons than the dotted lines suggest, 5 of them (per the official scale at my local PO) take you over an ounce and into 55 territory. If you send in multiples, it's another 22 for each group of 5, at least through 20 coupons for $1.21.
