Reading this i've got half a mind to just march on down to bed bath and beyond...possibly the container store (if necessary) and just get those tupperware style containers to keep cereal in. I have not looked into these in a long time but last i recall the pour flap thing on the lid was not particularly great. its been several years so who knows, maybe they have innovated and pour flap is better now.

Only other downside is that i'm pretty lazy as is, i'm struggling to see myself committing to taking the extra step to transfer the cereal from the original box to a secondary location but ya know what sometimes you got to be the adult.
this is where i'm at. I always felt that cereal should go directly from box to bowl with no intermediary steps. Never fully trusted those bulk bins of cereal that Food Services used at KSU. Seemed that the cereal was needlessly crushed and mangled by the time I would get it.
I hate cereal boxes.

i got another one...
people who - when discussing something that either happened a while ago, or will eventually happen in a while - look at their watch. Like in that 3 second glance at your watch did it really tell you that Memorial Day was still 4 months away? (and don't even come at me with like, apple watches or whatever, potentially showing you a whole lot of information or some crap)

This person's posts showed up in my LinkedIn feed because I follow John Deere I guess.

Pet peeve seems understated for attention whore scammers who fake things.

Allen wrenches. I have a bag thingy of like 600 different sizes of allen wrenches. I rarely need any of them, but when I do, I never seem to have the right sized one? It seems impossible that they build things and just randomly make up the size of the screw or whatever. Why make it so hard? Just make a standard screw or whatever!!!! :curse:

Question for those who use these? How do you keep old cereal from stacking up on the bottom? Do you have to completely empty it before you top it off with fresh cereal product?

SSOC raises a valid point. you fill it from the top, you pour it from the top, there is really no reason that the cereal at the bottom would ever find its way to the top unless you made a point to shake it up real good when it was about half full.

The other solution would be to get one of those hopper things like you see in hotels where you put your bowl under the hopper and then turn the little dial/knob and the cereal falls out the bottom. But "solution" is used generously because its just crumbs that fall out first. just horrible
