Who wants free cereal? Check out this giveaway!

Do you love cereal? Do you go through a lot of it at your house? Do you want to win a free box?

At my house, we love cereal. And when I say "we," I mean everyone but me. I maybe eat one bowl a year... maybe even less. But the rest of my family eats a lot of cereal.

I actually really like to give my kids cereal, because it's pretty good for them. We try not to buy a lot of the REALLY sugary stuff. And if you avoid sugar overload, there's all kinds of good stuff in cereal. It's low in fat. There's no cholesterol. It's fortified with vitamins and minerals. And these days, most cereals are made with whole-grains. (For a big long list of all reasons cereal is good for your kids, you can check out http://www.generalmills.com/corporate/health_wellness/pdfs/Benefits_of_Cereal.pdf.)

Another reason I love cereal (not to eat, but to give to my kids) is that it's easy. Pour some cereal and milk in a bowl and voila! Meal is ready in 30 seconds or less! In my book, that's a good thing. =)

So anyway, all of that is leading up to the fact that General Mills was generous enough to send me coupons to give away to my blog readers!

To enter the giveaway, leave me a comment telling me your favorite General Mills cereal. You could win a coupon for one FREE (up to $6.00) box of any General Mills cereal!

And now the details and legal stuff:

Hey I love cereal too. It makes a great breakfast and the best snack before bed. I think my favorite non-sugary cereals are the chex. All of them. I love corn chex the best but I also really like wheat and rice too. mmmm

The kids eat a lot of cereal too... Logan loves Honey Nut Cheerios. :)

Eric could live on cereal if we let him. The favorite General Mills Cereal in our house is Honey Nut Cheerios also. It has a bit of a sweet taste, and honey is better for you than sugar.

Captain Crunch!

Or one of those muesli granola type whose name escapes me at the moment :-)

I never know which cereal is from which company, but we like shredded wheat type cereals and Cheerios are always a big hit.

I'm pretty sure that our favorite cereal is from general mills...Reeses Puffs all the way. Hands down my favorite. But, if for some reason I am wrong and it isn't general mills, then cookie crisp is our second favorite!

My boys love Lucky Charms --- and I love eating a handful dry as I pour it in their bowls.

My favorite cereal is Cocoa Puffs. It is one of those cereals I don't have often. I am excited to try the new Chocolate Cheerios - I'm sure they aren't as healthy as Cheerios, but they have to be healthier than Cocoa Puffs, right?
