I experience that a lot. But buying one or the other (in terms of the cereal \ beer) is good ~ it's better than buying both at the same time, in which case you'd be spending more money than buying whichever one you felt like that particalar night at the store. If that makes sense.
I think everyone has that 'problem' and I think it's because we assign value to different things according to the situation. When I try to save 50 cents on cereal I'm in a 'conscious-consumer' mood in a setting that provokes that mood. When I gave a €1,30 tip last night on just two beers I'm in a completely different universe, judging by different standards with other things that make me feel good about myself.
