Target: Free or Cheap General Mills Cereal

generalmillscerealI keep forgetting that Target now price matches competitors ads. Here’s a great deal idea I stumbled upon at A Full Cup. Walgreens has General Mills cereals (Cereal, 11.5 to 14 oz.) on sale for $1.99 per box. Here’s how you can get Cocoa Puffs for free:

$1.99 Cocoa Puffs price matched to Walgreens ad
$1/1 manufacturer printable coupon (hand this one first)
$1/1 target printable coupon
FREE after coupon

You can get other General Mills cereals for very cheap by using the $1/2 coupon in the 8/23 SS inserts and the assorted $0.55/1, $0.75/1 or $1/2 printable coupons available on Coupons.com, Smartsource and Betty Crocker.

Remember that you price match items at Target over at Customer Service. So you will have to bring your items, coupons and Walgreens ad over to Customer Service to complete the transaction there. Also, note that the Walgreens ad states limit of 4 cereal boxes.

If you have price matched at Target, I would love to hear your experiences.
