12-Pack: Proper Good Overnight Oats Kit (Apple Cinnamon)
- Best by August 2025 (we only got these at this price because the brand did a redesign; they’re usually $5.97 a pop at Walmart)

- Can it make a margarita: No, but the jar is glass and reusable so you can fill it with marg when you’re done with the oats
T-oat-ally Simple
The problem with breakfast is not that you don’t want to eat it. No, we’d imagine that a lot of you who skip breakfast (and aren’t on some sort of intermittent-fasting-style diet) do so because you don’t want to make it.
This is because you have two options in terms of when you can make breakfast, and they both suck.
Option 1: you can get up a little early to prepare breakfast in the morning, but the drawbacks are obvious. You can’t sleep in or linger in bed, for example. And then there’s your general morning energy level. If you get up with time to spare before throwing some pants on and heading to work, you want to take it easy. Sit at the table with your coffee and a book, maybe. Or listen to some early morning NPR while you nibble. You don’t want to be doing a Carmy Berzatto impression while making an omelet before the sun has fully risen.
Option 2: You prepare something the night before. But here, you hit the same problem. Those hours after dinner and before bed are for winding down, not putting in some elbow grease so you have sustenance to start the next day.
So, instead, you just skip breakfast altogether. Or eat a granola bar. Or scarf down an unsatisfying bowl of cereal.
But today’s sale presents a different option: you can prepare a delicious jar of chilled overnight oats before bed, and it takes roughly one minute. All you do is dump the oat mix into the provided jar, pour some milk in to cover, shake, and shove it in the fridge. Then, it’ll be chilled and ready for you to enjoy the next morning! In other words, minimal impingement on your wind-down night time or ease-into-the-day morning time.
Oh, and we know what you’re thinking. It might not be the perfect season for chilled breakfasts. And considering we like to get right up snug with best-by dates, you probably won’t want to eat this stuff in the spring or summer, right?
WRONG!
The best-by date on this stuff is in August of 2025. We only got it for this cheap because the brand did a redesign. (Surprise, surprise: we have the old one.) Usually, each jar of these runs for close to $6 at Walmart. Today, you get 12 times that for just about 4 times the price.
And did we mention the jars are glass so you can reuse them? Hell, at $30 for a 12-pack (that’s $2.50 each) we might as well market this as a jar sale with bonus oats!
What we’re saying is: you should buy some of these so you can enjoy a satisfying (and satisfyingly effortless) breakfast.
