I saw my absolute very first coupon for a cereal that I hadn’t eaten in 40+ years. And, much too my surprise, my Hannaford grocery store has it!

Yum! Anybody else out there love Wheatena? Much better than non-instant oatmeal. Easier and quicker to fix, too.

Last year I bought a box, it just caught my eye, hadn’t seen it in years, yadda yadda. The very next day there was a coupon in the newspaper supplement. :smack: Not complaining over a dollar, but what are the odds? (I still prefer Maypo but that doesn’t taste like it did in the olden days.)
