Kellogs Multi-pack Cereals

only ever buy these when going on holiday, as they easy when self-catering

However, has anyone else noticed they have reduced the size of the packs. The boxes used to hold 25-30g (know this as they were also handy when dieting, as this is what most diets allow per portion), but they now hold 17g, which tbh is about 1 mouthful

i thought they were an expensive treat before, but dont think i will bother at all now

How tight are some companies gettting?

    I have been buying the Nestle PicaPacs, at £1.36 in Tesco, but each packet has a 25p off coupon, so £2 in coupons:j
    There are 2 different packs, one has cinnamon grahams, the other doesn't. 8 x 30g.
    have been buying these for quite a while now, and use the 8 different coupons each time I shop, with no problems.
    They are great for giving variety in the household, and also as yousay, for on holiday/camping.

    I just checked and the small variety pack from Kelloggs said 30g.

    However the Nestle variety pack seems a little healthier and bigger packets.

    (also, I bought mine from the local shop, so they may have older stock/different line).

    The variety packs are good for me as little bear is just discovering cereal (and how much fun it is to distribute it :rolleyes: ) but I would rather try Rice Crispies/cornflakes/shreddies than coco pops.

    I may force myself to eat the coco pops, to save little bear :rolleyes:
