Sunshiney Daze: Cheerios!

Cheerios!

If you know me you know I love bargains! I also need to be efficient and organized to get everything done that needs to be done. So, how do I combine the two? One of the ways is to buy in bulk. But this presents storage problems. Especially, for cereal. Once I open a humungo box of cereal, it will go stale faster and the box is usually pretty unwieldy.

Enter Cheerios! They have some brand-new packaging that solves these dilemmas! New 2 box Cheerios contains two boxes, that makes it easier to store, easier to pour, and I'm not left with a huge box of stale cereal.

Some other benefits include:

By reducing the amount of air in each individual bag, these enhanced containers fit 10% more cereal than before and use less packaging
While each box contains more cereal, packaging material has been reduced by over 200,000 lbs, saving 1,000 trees and taking 130 Cheerios trucks of the road, decreasing CO2 emissions

I love the new packaging! The first time I got a little vigorous and tore a little piece of my box, but after I realized I didn't need to be Hercules, they were very easy to use. I love that box is easier to pour than the other behemoth boxes. No more spills from my kids! Way to go Cheerios!

So do I have you craving some Cheerios? Well, two, count 'em two, lucky winners will each win (2) new 2 box Cheerios packaging (four boxes)! Cool, huh!
