LOL... yep... I did this too.. and the kids ( or DH) had no clue.. I also used to buy a couple of boxes of " name brand " dry cereal... then again at night.. refill those boxes with the off brand version...... Kids are not in their 30's and was complaining about how expensive cereal and milk are.. and their kids will not eat off brand.... I told them the truth and they stood there with their mouths having open..... The proceed to tell me how they can't believe I lied to them like that... give me a break..... u ate didnt u?>?????? "Brand name " being better is usually a state of mind!
Love, love, love it...me too! My kids who would not shop at a certain low cost store when living at home, now tell me what great prices they get there on their food.
