beep..beep..beep......this just in- I have checked 2 Walgreens and 3 Target store and sadly...no Chocula. BUT, I asked an employee at the 3rd Target and he said that they would be getting the monster cereals soon!

Oh, and I checked a Walmart and all they had was Cookie Crispies with a Wolf on the box?? I don't know what that's about!
But I'm holding up pretty well, and when I finally am reunited with my Chocula....it will be all the sweeter.

Yea walgreens has em for 3 dollars a box right now.

I picked up a box of Count Chocula at Target this weekend. BUT...I dug into it and have had it for breakfast three times already, so I don't think I'll be using this box to make treats! I haven't had this cereal in years...forgot how good it is!

I'm so gonna make that this weekend!!!! Great Idea, Thanks For Posting!

Moonshadow- I can hardly stand the wait! Chocula has that crisp cocoa taste that no other cereal posesses....and the Count is on the front of the box looking all handsome!

I must travel to the Alabama border this weekend and see if they have any. I'm afraid that the longer I can't find it, the more crazed I'll be when I happen upon it! I'll fill up the cart and hoard it! hahahaha!!!

Charpie, I don't wanna read some news report about "Crazed woman assaults other customers over Count Chocula" or something like that!! Keep it together, woman!!

I understand......I have also envisioned myself throwing a brick through a store window at night, because I saw my Chocula inside and the store was closed.....shiver..
I know it's out there and I have patience. But there's a chance that you may read a news report of a woman hospitalized with Chocula poisoning after I binge on it!
My husband likes Frankenberry, but I find it too sweet. I usually only eat a couple bites and go back to my precious. Frankenberry is adorable, but that pink color hurts my eyes after 15 minutes.

I freakin' love those monster cereals. It's been years, though. I had a box of Boo-Berry a couple years back, what an experience. A ghost blue cereal! Its mascot is a GHOST! It is just too freakin' cool.

Finally tried the Franken Treats !! Man those things are pretty damn good !! I would of never thought of making them without this thread.

You guys can still get Frankenberry and Count Chocula? I haven't seen them in stores for years. Hey, BooBerry, either.

S.P.

Same here, though I haven't tried Wally-world (Walmart). There seems to be an irrational bias against monster-themed cereals in there parts!!

I finally found my monster cereals tonight at SuperTarget! It is 22 miles from my house, but it was worth the drive. I grabbed a box and ran up the stairs and poured myself a Vintage 2011- bowl of happiness! It was everything I imagined it would be....crispy and cocoa infused, and loaded with marshmallow sweeties. I can now move on with my life. Sure, another bowl would be delicious- but it is not necessary. I am satisfied with my Chocula experience. I bought 2 of each box, so I can serve it to my out of town guests after my Halloween party. And I plan on making cereal bars with my grandson.

I think we'll make the Frankenberry Bars- they look appealing!

I am glad common sense prevailed and there was no mayhem at the SuperTarget.
