UPDATE: Kellogg's Corn Flake Crumbs for as low as $1.26 per box (a third of the supermarket price)


UPDATE #2:  I want to stress again that I am obviously NOT a posek and you always need to check these things out with your local rabbi.  It's been brought to my attention that these corn flake  crumbs contain malt flavoring, which is a form of chametz; however, according to the Star-K, it is not considered "chametz gamur" that many people have the custom of getting rid of (as opposed to selling).  Please see the Star-K chart over here.  I should have chosen my words more carefully and responsibly, but my original point still stands. These are chametz, but not chametz gamur, so chances are you will not have to throw these out before Pesach. Please do your own due diligence in looking into this.

UPDATE:  I guess I should have posted this yesterday, but it didn't occur to me until today <forehead thunk>.  Some of you have expressed a great deal of interest in this deal, but hesitated getting a dozen boxes of corn flake crumbs only 3 months away from Pesach. 

Please be aware that corn flake crumbs are not chametz!  They are kitnios, which means that (assuming you're Ashkenazic) you need to put them away for Pesach, but you do not need to sell them, or if you don't sell chametz gamur as is customary for some of us, you don't need to get rid of them!  Treat this item halachically as if it were a can of corn.  

Naturally, I'm not an Orthodox rabbi, (nor do I play one on TV,) so please check with your local morah d'asra for halachic assistance in this matter.

Amazon has got a great Subscribe & Save deal on a 12-pack of Kellogg's Corn Flake Crumbs 21 oz. boxes:
This single box of Corn Flake Crumbs goes for $3.64 at Walmart.  Toby G. who sent me this deal, said this item goes for $3.29 in Brooklyn and $3.99 in Dallas. So getting this at a 60% to 70% discount of the supermarket price is very, very sweet indeed. 

Corn flake crumbs are one of my favorite things to use for breading chicken with (second only to Panko).

If you are struggling to reach that five-delivery goal so that you can increase your discount, don't sweat it, as I continuously post Subscribe & Save deals under $5.00 (usually more like under $3.00) that will help you reach that goal.

If you're unfamiliar with Subscribe & Save deals, or would just like a few tips on how best to use the Subscribe & Save program, read my shpiel on Subscribe & Save strategies here.

Remember that you don't need to be a member of Amazon Prime to get free shipping on ANY Amazon Subscribe & Save deal...shipping is free for anyone.
