The coupons are a welcomed treat inside of each of these specially marked boxes. How awesome to pay $3 for a box of cereal and get $5 in coupons inside! This deal is much better than any toy that they could put inside the box.

Chocolate Cheerios Cereal Bars
Ingredients
1/2 stick of butter
5 cups of Jet-Puffed JUMBO SwirlMallows Chocolate and Vanilla
