I went to Albertsons today because I wanted to see exactly what cereals are included in the Kellogg’s sale that we told you about on Tuesday. More importantly, I wanted to know if the cereals in the catalina deal were included in the sale!
they ARE!!
For all you newbies out there, this is how it works. You’ll want to understand what a catalina is (not the salad dressing), and what doubles are, and how to print a coupon!

That is my personal price point for cereal!
