Giveaway ~ Post Honey Bunches of Oats!

My family loves cereal!  So much so, that I usually have at least 10-20 boxes in my stockpile.  I buy it on sale/with coupons when it's cheap so we always have plenty on hand for easy breakfasts, snacks and sometimes even for dinner!

So you know I was really excited when I was asked if I'd like to try Honey Bunches of Oats AND give away coupons for FREE boxes ~  of course!!  My kids were ecstatic when the package arrived - they LOVE Honey Bunches of Oats! It was immediately opened for an afterschool snack! They loved that Post has added even more granola bunches into each box.  This is a snack I feel good about letting my kids enjoy with skim milk.

Here is what I've learned about this (yummy!) cereal: 

It's a combination of four nutritious grains - Wheat, Oat, Corn and Rice
There are crispy flakes AND crunchy granola bunches in every box
Each serving has 10 grams Whole Grain
6 grams sugar (3 grams less than Honey Nut Cheerios)
Heart Healthy choice with 0 g Trans Fat, 0 g Saturated Fat and 0 mg Cholesterol
Provides 9 essential vitamins and minerals

We've been enjoying Honey Bunches of Oats for years, and will continue to do so.  How about you?  Does your family like this yummy cereal?   Would you like to be one of my winners?  Two lucky readers will each receive coupons for two free boxes of Honey Bunches of Oats, up to $4.49 value each!  Click on the read more link to enter via Rafflecopter!
