I love Lidl's ready oats. Its a bit like readybrek so its really quick to make and it fills me up. Plus its cheap and its good for you!0

I went to Netto other day and they had Minimum flakes on offer at 65p . When they went through they were 49p so next day went and bought 6 cos they are nice. Low fat taste like fitness which is 4 times the price and they dont go soggy.0

Oh and I forgot got some Asda Hawaiian Crunch 68p in yellow packet thats really nice not may raisins to pick out cos I don't like them either. Full of banana chips and pineapple and papaya. yum yum0

Tesco's have a Value Mulesli in a box which is quite good. But the price varies like crazy. In the last 6 months it's up and down between 44p and £1.08p. I think it's around the 50p mark now.0

Lidl's or Asda's own Weetabix for me:heartpulsOnce a Flylady, always a Flylady:heartpuls0

I personally love cereal ..great start to the day too!!
I also think that if you buy the big branded names you do get better quality and tastes. I enjoy eating "start" which ive not had for a while which you can get from leading supermarkets. They have a unique taste and contain lots of iron so healthy aswell.
Another idea would be to add fruit like apple slices or bannana sliced into some cereals for extra flavour .
Or you could try weetabix covered in fruit flavoured yogurt - not one of my faves but adds some difference instead of using milk all the time .Ebay Bag A Day Challenge 2012- :staradmin

Maybe this doesn't count as cereal but porridge is great!
Buy a bag or porridge oats, a bag of bran, raisins (although maybe not for you if you don't like them) and then some fruit for the top. I usually pick blueberries but these are expensive atm.
Half a cup of porridge, sprinkle of bran, cup of milk, half cup of water .... microwave for 3.5 mins. Perfect everytime and really cheap!
Also I have Tesco's 'Special Flakes' which are like 'Special K' but must admit they aren't as nice as the branded ones (although my boyfriend says he can't tell the difference).
Favourite ever cereal is Crunchy Nut Bites mmmmmmmmmmm but REALLY expensive .... I refuse to pay close to £3 for a small box0 -
Tesco Finest porridge oats. I used to only eat Scott's, but these are as nice and much cheaper! Also Tesco Value fruit and fibre, or their no-added sugar Swiss muesli.C'est le ton qui fait la chanson0

Branflakes with some raisins on them, or dorset cereals (the one in the dark blue box) mixed with yoghurt.The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt.Bertrand Russell0
