Thanks to Lori
at Trying to Save Alot for pointing out this great Nature Valley deal at Kroger. I stopped in at a different Kroger [haven't been here in quite some time] after my trip to Walgreens as it happens to be next door. Oh, and I hate trying to get out of that Walgreens due to the light being right there and my needing to make a left turn. I must say, this Kroger is a very nice store. My regular store is great, too.

I had to go to Walgreens today as my $8.00 in RR were expiring. Two weeks is just not enough time for me. Truth be told, if they took longer to expire it would take longer to motivate me to go and I still would be rushing to try to roll them before they expire. {sigh}

My favorite resource for having all the Walgreens, CVS, Kroger, Target, etc. deals handy is Mommy Snacks. Andrea has this awesome embedded print link in each of her “snack” posts making it super simple to have all the best deals ready and with you.
