HyVee ~ Question: Free Milk or Free Eggs? Help!

[mommytaylor]

I'm torn. I have 15 $1/1 Kellogg's Cereal.

I have free eggs wyb 2 kelloggs coming, but will likely not be here until after the 12th when the milk cat ends

We go through 2 gallons of Milk a month.
We go through a dozen eggs a week.

What should I do????? I'm so torn. Milk costs more, but we go through more eggs... GAH.

I think the real question is what price are your cereals now, versus what they will be after the 12th - that would be your biggest variable.

Otherwise:
Since eggs are so cheap right now - pretty much .99 everywhere, and .69 some places (Walgreens right now in my town), I'd say milk - because milk isn't below 2.00 anywhere I've seen.

I'd go with the milk too...

Well, the eggs are up to $2.00 each, so I could get 18 ct. cartons...
And that's a good point about kellogg price. I see Kellogg's going on sale at other stores in the area, and imagine HyVee might in the next few weeks.

Perhaps I should buy 5 kellogg's, get 2 more milk cats, and then save the other 10 to get free eggs? Gah! I need more kelloggs Qs
