Harris Teeter General Mills Promo=Really Cheap Cereal for You!


Through Tuesday night, Harris Teeter is running a great promo on cereals from General Mills. It's SUPER easy and you can even do it without coupons, although it gets better as you add coupons!


It's simple: Buy 4 qualifying boxes of General Mills Cereals and get $2 off your total order automatically at the register. As a bonus, the qualifying cereals are already on sale for $2.50 each! So, when you buy ten, the cost will be $10-$2= $8. If you don't know which cereals qualify, you can see them below or here as well as in the store on a tag on the shelf). Be sure to select the proper size, too.




But it gets better- You can apply coupons and there are MANY out there. Some have been in the newspaper, so check your binder, and others are available online by printing them on your home printer. Here are a couple of links to coupons that work:

Betty Crocker
Box Tops
Pillsbury

I've done this promo several times because I had lots of coupons for these cereals. I've gotten about 16 boxes of different ones because I have three children and cereal is a welcome commodity in my house. You should stock up on as many as you feel you can afford and that your family will need in the coming months.

Here's an example of one of the times I did the promo. I bought:


2 Honey Nut Chex for $1.97 each (EVIC weekend special price)
1 Rice Chex for $2.50
1 Corn Chex for $2.50
Total:  8.94
Promo at the Register Comes off= -$2.
Total Now: $6.94

Total Now: $4.94
Another Coupon for $1 off 2 boxes, which doubles to $2 off
Total Now: $2.94
EVIC Digital Coupon for $.74 off a box of Chex
Total Now: 2.20 before tax


Total for Four Boxes of Chex: $.55 Each!


Here's another example of when I did the promo with Honey Nut Cheerios, Lucky Charms, and Cinnamon Toast Crunch. I bought:


2 Honey Nut Cheerios at $2.50 each
1 Cinnamon Toast Crunch at $2.50 each
1 Lucky Charms at $2.50 each
Total: 10.00
Promo at the Register Comes off= -$2.

So, I hope you see how this promo can really add up and even if you don't have coupons, I think that $2.00 per box is still a pretty good price!
