Ok, not sure if I can post this so here it goes!

I buy chex all the time, it is breakfast everymorning. I always pay $2.98 - $3.25 per box at Walmart. Well since today is pay day and I needed to buy a few things I found my cereal that was priced at.......... $1.66 per box! ok that is a good price, not sure why. I confirmed with 2 people that this was correct. I live in CA so not sure if it is statewide or nationwide but wanted to post. $1.66 per box! Crazy =) hehehe I bought 3 =P

I just happened to be at Walmart last night, and just happened to need some Rice Chex, and did at least a triple take when I saw the price. I thought it must be wrong. I'm in Minnesota, and it was $1.66 here, too. Brought home 6 boxes. Wanted to get more, but felt a bit greedy.

hehe maybe I will go back tomorrow =P right on, so it is nationwide price. It could be worng people, get it while you can lol jk =)

I will probably go back and get a few more just to save some money. What is the usual price in MN?

Also, look up online, printable coupons for the Rice Chex, they're available for 1.00 off 2 boxes. You can print and use as many as you want per 2 boxes.

later-sorry, I looked it up and the coupon was on last week. They have new items this week. There is a coupon for $.55 off enjoylife products though. couponsdotcom

Thanks for posting this I bought 4 boxes today, what they had left on the shelf and plan on going back tomorrow morning for more. :D Time to make yummy snacks.

... What is the usual price in MN?

Sorry so slow; it's usually somewhere between $3.15 and $3.65. $1.66 is rockin' - can't believe I actually went to another Walmart for science fair supplies for the kids and forgot to grab a few more boxes!

i just went to stock up on Rice Chex and the shelf was empty...surprise surprise! the price said $1.66 so i went to the customer service desk to inquire how long the sale is going on for. (i also asked for a raincheck but was told they don't offer them.)

silly me to think they'd be able to help me...this is Walmart we're talking about. <_< no one could tell me for sure if this is a sale price or if they just "rolled back" the price permanently. nor would they have someone go check the back to see if there was any more left. i did have the option to wait around for an hour until the night stockers came in or come back tomorrow.

the clerks seemed to think this is NOT a sale price and it'll be around for a while...we'll see when i go back in a few days!

      Well, the only thing I would conclude with would be, if you choose not to trial the gluten free diet, is to encourage you to get periodically tested, either antibody blood tests or the biopsy or both. I think it something that needs to be monitored.

      So the strange thing is I don't have any symptoms at all, except the soft stools (comes and goes) which they told me was from the Lymphocytic colitis. I had some mild positives on my antibody test and one gene was positive which is what made my doctor go ahead with the endoscopy. The reason they started any of this was finding the lymphocytic colitis this past summer after I had C Diff and she said, Well....it may be from something like Celiac.... Definitely a lot to learn through all of this and I appreciate people like you taking the time to help out a stranger like me!
    • trents
      Well, I wouldn't rule either out. And you might consider trialing a gluten free diet for a few months to see if symptoms improve. That would tell you a lot. By the way, the incidence of other bowel diseases is higher in the celiac population than it is in the general population. And even if you don't have celiac disease, you could have NCGS. Gluten is just problematic for a lot of folks for various reasons.

      Thanks for taking a look. I also just did some research and saw that increased numbers of intraepithelial lymphocytes and villous distortion can possibly be from lymphocytic colitis (which I was diagnosed with this past summer)....so fingers crossed this is what she will say it is.

      IMO, Part 3 has some abnormalties that could indicate the early stages of celiac disease but the doctor is tentatively thinking not, at least at this point.
