Ben and I have a fettish.... a cereal fettish. It started with Ben when he was single. He would always have 10 or so boxes at his apt. I caught the fever after we were married. Now...we just can't stand missing out on a cereal sale. We don't just buy any box of cereal. Every box we have ever boughten has been for a dollar or less. We've gotten for as little as 50 cents a box on a really good sale with coupons! This week Smiths is having a Kelloggs sale (which never happens!). We bought 37 boxes! (we were running low...notice all the holes on our cereal shelf) Grand total is 117 boxes...this number is not counting the 15 or so we have in a box under the crib! We are kicking ourselves for not keeping track of how boxes we have gone through since we've been married. I might also mention that I have never seen Ben as happy as when we are cereal shopping. The best time was when Albertsons was having a sale and we ended up getting 27 boxes of cereal and 4 cans of spaghettios for $23! He was like a little kid at Christmas time!
