Harris Teeter: I'm confused by mini-wheats E-vic special

[GardenGnome]

Ok, so I just got an e-mail that little bites mini-wheats is on E-vic for 2.24. I'm confused because it's already on sale for 1.74 at my store- why would I pay more as an E-vic customer?? Or do BOGO E-vics work like I've heard of occasionally and one little bites would be $2.24 and the other would be free?? I'm soo confused....

[uummm]

I saw that too...maybe they are half price of the $2.24...I guess until someone gets them we won't know for sure. I won't be getting them. The chocolate ones didn't go over well and they have dropped the Honey Nut in lou of the little bites Original flavor which have HFCS in them (yet some the other flavors do not). I had them check at CS to make sure and the warehouse doesn't carry the Honey Nut anymore.

The limit is 2 on my E-vic - so if they ring up 2.24 + free, you could get 4 maybe?
Best case:
4.48 (2 boxes at 2.24 + 2 free)
3.49 (2 boxes regular BOGO)
3.19 one of the 3 sweet types
=11.16
-3.00 (two 1.50/1 IPs)
-1.00 (one 1.00/2 insert - since you can only use 2 IPs)
-2.10 (one .70/1 blinkie)
=5.06 for 7 boxes cereal and 3 gallons of milk.

Just thinking out loud....

The Mini-Wheat Little Bites are listed in my EL as BOGO - 1.74 just like the others.

There is a $2/2 coupon coming out this weekend on the Little Bites that might work with this deal, reducing the OOP to .57. I don't have it right here in front of me - hopefully someone will check it out and let us know!

I did the deal today with the mini-wheats. E-vic $2.29 (BOGO) and 1 more for $1.69. Used 1 coupon for $3 off 2 and 1 coupon for $1 off 1. OOP $0.98 and got a cat for free milk. I did a transaction with 7 boxes earlier in the week so we are swimming in mini-wheats. Will probably donate most if not all of them. I really wanted to get the cat for the free milk since we drink organic and getting $4.19 off of each gallon (thus paying $0.80) is a super value!

I think I LOVE you Uummm! I really wanted to buy mini-wheats this week but was annoyed that they have HFCS in them. After reading your post I checked out the ingredient list on EL and it seems that only "original" frosted mini-wheats has HFCS in it. Yay, I thought it was all of them!! And yes, I noticed they got rid of Honey nut...I was thinking why??? Seems like all cereal is going to chocolate now :sad:

Just so ya know, they didn't get rid of honey nut. It was the only flavor left at my HT .
