One or two, but I buy the big boxes.
We'll be on WIC soon and getting more than that- yay! I'm sure we'll eat it to have it around; I just have a hard time spending money on something that's not on the meal plan.

I buy them at Costco, so maybe one every 2 weeks? Our kids don't eat a whole lot of cereal yet

I have cereal addicts, it's not just a breakfast food you know. Mine eat it as a snack too, I buy a lot of cereal. depends on the cash flow, a good week, 6-8 boxes, which of course means I go through a lot of milk too!!

maybe a box or two a week. We used to go through more when my dh would by sugary cereals but since I forbid those the kids don't eat as much.

4-5 boxes but I use rice crispies and cornflakes for other things too. For example, Crispy Ranch Chicken is rolled in crushed up corn flakes. That's one of the few meals that the entire family loves so we make it often. And, of course, Izzy has to have her Cheerios
