Kmart Cereal Deal Update

08/17/2009 By Charlene 13 Comments

This post may contain affiliate links, please see my disclosure policy.

I told you about the great cereal deal this week at Kmart HERE. Buy 4 boxes of selected items for $9 and get a $5 gift card back via mail in rebate.

I did this deal myself and can confirm the participating cereals:

**Rice Krispies
**Corn Flakes
**Corn Pops
**Raisin Bran
**Apple Jacks
**Fruit Loops
**Honey Smacks
and Cereal Straws

So the Raisin Bran and the Rice Krispies are the best deals. If you got the Vocalpoint mailer with $1 off coupons you will pay $1 total after four coupons and doubles- and you will get a $5 gift card back.
.
.
If you missed that mailer the next best deal would be:

4 boxes of Raisin Bran $10.00
Print (2) $1.50/2 coupons HERE (the coupons say Frosted Mini Wheats but the find print reads Raisin Bran also- Thanks Sheila!)
After doubles you will pay $3 and you will get a rebate form for a $5 gift card back.

    What kind of gift card do they send you? A K-Mart one?

    Yes Elizabeth it is a Kmart one. I was hoping for a rebate check but no such luck. There will be another doubles event at the end of this month and I am sure we will see more in September so the gift card may come in handy ๐Ÿ™‚

    Hello Charlene-
    I live in Antelope and visit your blog many times a day and find it very useful…Today I did the Kelloggs deal at Kmart and got 2 cocoa krispies, 1 frosted flakes and 1 honey smacks and the $5 mail in rebate form did not print at the bottom of my receipt, what should I do?

    The rebate form will only print if you have 15 dollars or more AFTER coupons, according to the customer service at my KMART.

    Hi Heidi! The Cocoa Krispies are not part of the deal. I just mailed the form off so I don't have it but I am almost certain it was just Rice Krispies. I would return the 4 boxes and ask to exchange the Cocoa for something that is part of the deal. I don't think this promotion was advertised very clearly. I think I saw Cocoa Krispies on the list but only for cereal straws.

    Rachelle, I am 100% sure that is not true because I only paid $11 on my trip and I have seen several others pay substantially less and get the form. You can call Kmart customer service 1-866-562-7848 and ask what to do. I did this the last time my catalina didn't print and the manager of my store called me back within minutes and had cash sitting at the register for me to pick up.

    What if you came in just to buy the cereal and didn't use coupons- you'd still only pay $9 so that just doesn't make sense.

    Hi Heidi,
    Only the cereals Charlene listed are part of the rebate, cocoa krispies and frosted flakes are not included, you can take them back and get cereals listed to submit the rebate.

    I bought 2 boxes of raisin bran and 2 boxes of frosted mini wheats and was overcharged for the mini wheats, they charged me 3.99 a box, all were on the end cap saying 4 for 9 and had the little sign about the money back. And the form did not print for me. I have to go back and get it fixed but am going back to double more anyway, lol. I am going to do the rice crispies deal with my vocal point coupons! This is such an awesome deal!

    Nicole the Mini Wheats aren't included. The darn thing is confusing because so many varieties are 4/$9 but according to the form I got only the flavors I listed are actually getting the $5 gift card.

    Thanks everyone for clarifying for me, I really appreciate it. It's almost not worth all the hassle of dealing with customer service.

    Charlene, I just read your recent post about how you had to fight with customer service for your money…was that the Rocklin store? It seems like both the Rocklin store and the Citrus Heights store on Auburn Blvd. are getting more and more annoyed with us couponers and they argue over everything…

    Hi Heidi, Yes Rocklin. My store is just awful no matter what. They have high school kids that are perfectly pleasant and the older cashiers are just horrible no matter what I am buying. I might try Auburn next go as it is no fun to score deals in Rocklin anymore.

    I see my mistake, one of my boxes was a frosted flakes ๐Ÿ™ Oh well, it was still free since I got 4/9, had four dollars in coupons and used a 5 dollar off kmart coupon. and I do really like frosted flakes.

    I did this deal and got the rebate form, but the address to send it all to is scratched on my receipt. Can anyone tell me the whole address to send everything to? I would really appreciate it! ๐Ÿ™‚
