Shopping on line can be easy, simple and save you lots of money. It can also take a lot of your time, frustrate you, and result in unwanted purchases. Now the same can be said for regular high street shopping, but with the vast opportunity presented by the Internet it will pay you to spend a few minutes reading this and understanding how to better optimize your Frosted Flakes shopping experience:
1. Compare - without doubt the biggest advantage that the Frosted Flakes offers shoppers today is the ability to compare thousands of Frosted Flakes at a time. This is a great thing, but not necessarily all the time! Too much can be daunting at times so take advantage of the great comparison sites and where possible let them do the hard work for you.
2. Research - if it has been said it will be on the internet. Ignorance is no longer a justifiable reason for buying the wrong thing. Take the time to research in detail everything that you could possible want to know about
3. Testimonials - don't know anybody that has bought a Frosted Flakes? Wrong! If the Frosted Flakes is good the internet will let you know. Use the Internet as a friend and get testimonials before you buy.
4. Questions - Got a question about Frosted Flakes then search the Forums, FAQ's, Blogs etc. Don't be afraid to ask .....
5. Reputation - Never heard of the company selling Frosted Flakes? Don't worry, no reason why you should know every company in the world, but you know someone that does! Use the internet to find out what people are saying about Frosted Flakes and build up a picture of their reputation for sales, returns, customer service, delivery etc.
6. Returns - still worried that even after all of the above your Frosted Flakes wont be what you want? Check out the returns policy. There is so much competition now that someone, somewhere is bound to offer the terms that you are comfortable with.
7. Feedback - happy with your Frosted Flakes then let people know, after all you are depending on others people input in your buying decision, so why not give a little back.
8. Security - check for the yellow padlock on the Frosted Flakes site before you buy, and the s after http:/ /i.e. https:// = a secure site

Frosted Flakes (North America) or
Frosties (
UK, Commonwealth of Nations and
EU countries) is a cereal similar to Corn flakes from Kellogg Company, but coated with frosted
sugar.
Names
The term "Frosted Flakes" can be used by any company making a similar product. However, the term "Frosties" is a registered trademark and so cannot be used by others, and it goes under many different names in other countries.
- "Zucaritas" in Spanish-speaking countries.
- "Sucrilhos" in Brazil.
Tony The Tiger
Tony the Tiger has been the mascot of Frosted Flakes since the cereal was first introduced in
1952 as
Sugar Frosted Flakes. The word "sugar" was dropped from the product in the 1970s. Tony is known for uttering the cereal's slogan:
"They're Grrreat!". Tony the Tiger was originally voiced by Thurl Ravenscroft, who continued to provide his voice until his death in 2005. The character is currently voiced by the former professional wrestling play-by-play announcer, Lee Marshall.
Kelloggs Frosted Flakes Products
In 2004, Kellogg's launched Cinnamon Krunchers in August continuing into November. The slogan was "They're Grrreat 'Till They're Gone."
New Sugar Reduction
In 2004, Kellogg's introduced a 1/3 Less Sugar recipe.
Taglines
This cereal has had numerous taglines, but the classic, "They're grrreat!" has always been used along with the others.
- They're more than good, They're grrreat!
- They're gonna taste great!
- Bring out the tiger in you! (1980s)
- The taste adults have grown to love. (1980s - 1990s)
- Earn your stripes!
- Put a tiger on your team!
Because of the not so specific slogan, it has been parodied many times, such as in
Family Guy
The Frosties Kid
The
Frosties Kid was an internet
meme during the spring and summer of 2006.
The
Frosties Kid advertisement was aired on

South Africa.
