I am not sure I did documented the Challenge correctly but it was fun to try
Next time I will try not to bring the kids.

Kellogg’s coupon is $1 off of three now! Not a big deal since I have RR’s from last week, but might be good to note for someone doing the deal w/o RR’s.

Can I use 2 RR’s if I buy the Vitamins and a filler item? Will I still get the RR back?
