Don’t forget, today is the last day to drop off cereal boxes to receive free breakfast sandwich coupons from Panera.  Coupons expire the end of October.  Rules are pretty simple:  unopened (duh!), unexpired and 12 oz or more; one coupon/one box/one person (make sure you go with a crowd).  I have dropped off several boxes of the new Cinnabon cereal which is only 10 oz, with no problems but always made sure that the mgr saw the weight.  I think they’re going to have to revise those guidelines next year, since the weight on cereal boxes continues to decrease to help us hold down costs.  Some people last year (this is the 3rd year) were bringing in those tiny single-serve boxes and cups; come on folks, that’s just tacky.  While your cereal is free (you are using your coupons, aren’t you?), why not get some mileage out of it.  You know Panera is getting something out of this (and don’t even say they’re doing it for the good of mankind or I’ll come over there and bitch-slap you).  Wait, if you believe that, I have some great money-making opportunities for you to work at home for $5,000/month/part time.  Honestly!  Just send me $10 cash and I’ll rush the info right out.  (and your check is in the mail…)
