Acme might call it their StockUpSale but I call it their staples sale. This week I’m hitting up Acme to load up on cereal, snacks and frozen veggies. This week I can afford to fill my overflow freezer and pantry shelves with things I know we’re going to eat. Cheerios is an all time favorite in our home so that’s always on our list. What a treat to be able to score them for less than $2 a box.
Golden Grahams is also just $1.88. This is what we call snacking cereal. It’s a great substitute for traditional cookies or buttery popcorn while watching a movie. Even better is making really easy Golden Grahams S’mores Treats.
Ingredients
• 3 tablespoons butter
• 6 cups/1 bag mini marshmallows
• 6 cups Golden Grahams
• 1 cup chocolate chips
• pinch of salt (optional)
• cooking spray
Instructions
Prepare a large baking dish with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
In a large non-stick pot over medium heat melt butter and add marshmallow & till melted. Remove from heat and add cereal and salt and mix till well blended. Stir in chocolate chips.
Place a sandwich baggie over your hand and spray the bag with cooking spray. Press cereal mixture into prepared baking pan. Set aside to cool. Slice into squares and enjoy.
This type of treat bar can be made just almost any of the General Mills cereals on sale at Acme. Get your shopping list written and don’t miss the great deals found at all Albertsons’ stores starting 10/11 through 10/17. Always check your local stores for details or changes in inventory or sale dates.
