General Mills and My Blog Spark

Did you know that ready-to-eat cereal eaters consume less fat, less cholesterol and more fiber than non-cereal eaters? Cereals also deliver important vitamins, minerals and other essential nutrients, making cereal a top source of key nutrients in children’s diets.

Other cereal benefits:

• Ready-to-eat cereals, including presweetened cereals, account for only 5% of sugar in children’s diets.


• Ready-to-eat cereal is the No. 1 source of whole grains in a child’s diet today.


• More frequent cereal eaters tend to have healthier body weights and lower Body Mass Index measures.

Studies also demonstrate the benefits of eating breakfast. A 1998 study showed that children who eat breakfast tend to perform better at school. Compared to children who skip breakfast, children who eat breakfast score higher on tests, are less likely to miss class or be tardy, have fewer reported discipline problems, and make fewer trips to the office.

For more information about kids and cereals, please visit Cereal Health and Wellness.

Right now if you visit here you will find a $1 off coupon for one of four General Mills cereals.

**VIP coupons, information, and online coupon link have been provided by General Mills through MYBlogSpark


Give it a try and let me know what you think? My family has tried the new reduced sugar cereal and love it!!

Mr. Potato Head Santa at Target

Today I went to my local Target ( Canton,MI) to pick up TWO Mr. Potato Head Santas and WHAT A MESS!!! First they were ALL out and I know there is a deal to get them for .99 after a printable coupon so I knew I was taking a chance but still thought there would be a few left. So I went to customer service to have them do a rain check and the man asked ME to go get the information on the product( the item number and cost) which was all the way in the back corner of the store!! But I was nice and did it anyways and when I finally got up to the front of the store with the information the man told me that he couldn't do the rain check because that was a seasonal item!!! So I guess here is my complaint for those bargain shoppers like myself please leave some for other people instead of taking them all and for Target Stores and I do love target and shop there often especially for deals and bargains please hire motivated people and people who really know what they are doing instead of asking the customer do it all especially now with Christmas around the corner and the stores are becoming more and more crowded. There is nothing worse than a horrible afternoon shopping trip!
