Friday night, we loaded up the kids and took a trip to Sears. We had read on SlickDeals that Sears was having [...] I love cereal. Like most kids, the cereal aisle was my favorite aisle of the grocery store growing up. I could eat cereal for any meal of the day, or as a snack. I just love the stuff.
