General Mills Monster Cereal Giveaway

I was thrilled to be contacted by General Mills to do another giveaway and this time for Halloween!

Fall is my favorite time of the year and Halloween is always so much fun. General Mills has released 3 Limited Edition cereals for the occasion. They are: Count Chocula, Boo Berry and Franken Berry. The Monster Cereals combine chocolaty, blueberry and strawberry flavored cereal with colorful marshmallow shapes that kids and adults enjoy.

They have each added spoonfuls of Spooky Fun to breakfasts for more than 40 years. I actually remember getting these on rare occasion as a kid. Each serving of the playful, monster-themed cereals are low in fat with no cholesterol or saturated fat. Count Chocula, Boo Berry and Franken Berry are a good source of calcium, whole grain and nine other essential vitamins and minerals.

Grab your boxes of Monster Cereals before they disappear for another year! They will be available at your local Target from September 26-October 31. You can also visit Grocery Savvy to access fun Monster Cereals photos and desktop backgrounds.

With that said, one reader will get the chance to win the following General Mills Prize Pack:
-A box of each Monster Cereal (Count Chocula, Boo Berry and Franken Berry)
-A $10 Gift Card to Target
-A trick-or-treat bag


This is the prize pack you will win!

I use to eat Franken Berry as a kid because I felt sorry for him. I felt everyone love Count Chocula, so I had to root for the underdog. But I loved it cause it was good.
