I love freebies. I sign up to win books online. I print coupons and aim to get super bargains. It’s awesome when I get a product for free. I sign up for samples all the time. Today I received a sample for shampoo and conditioner plus three cereals with coupons. Always makes me happy when something comes in the mail that isn’t a bill. Who doesn’t love that?

So one of the places I’ve signed up which is with General Mills who from time to time send out goodies to try in the hopes you’ll tell friends and basically love the product and tell all you know about it.

Well I received the other day a bag of Nature Valley Granola Nut Clusters along with a ton of coupons.
They come is Roasted Almonds, Roasted Cashews, Honey Roasted Peanut and the one I received Nut Lovers.
I took these out of the bag in the hopes to try. While out a friend came over who proceeded to devour the entire bag. I happen to be out grocery shopping when this happened and what should I have with me but a $1 coupon for said yummy product. Being on sale buy 4 mix and match with other items it was $1.50 I needed one other item anyway so I got it and for 50 cents I wasn’t going to leave it. Not to mention that if I’m going to try the product the way I signed up and agreed to do well then for the greater good I need many, many samples. Really *cough* really. For the greater good.

Yeah, yeah ok I just wanted to scarf it all down but they are yummy and I really do want to be the good little reviewer with these and books so my blog will have actual content. Not just endless rambling and random thoughts of mine.

The best part the coupons General Mills sent is for $1.60 and with the current sale these tasty treats will be free. Yep free my favorite word. So I’ll be heading out to the grocery store and stocking up as I found some awesome coupons online in addition. With my grocery store fun yesterday saving 70% I’m quite proud of myself. The upcoming buy I have planned should be even more fun.

The great site I joined pssst.generalmills.com will be getting quite the review from me on the Nut Cluster goodies once they ask me for it. My family loves the Nature Valley granola bars as is, I think we have a new fav.
