Kroger 1/21/08

I went coupon shopping at Kroger last night. I am going to list the deals I got.



* Buy 10 items get $5 off deal #1

~ 7 Green Giant Steamers - $1.59 each minus .50 coupon doubled = .59

~ 2 Tropicana Orange Juice - $2.99 each minus $1/2 coupon = $2.49 ea.

~ 1 Ken's Spray Salad Dressing - $1.99 minus $.50 doubled = .99



Total: about $10.20 minus $5 Deal = $5.20 out-of-pocket



* Buy 10 items get $5 off Deal #2

~ 2 Ken's Salad Dressing - $1.99 ea. minus $1/2 coupon = $1.49 each

~ 2 Fiber One Bars - $2.69 ea. minus $.50 coupon doubled = $1.69 ea.

~ 6 Kraft Cheese - $1.99 each minus .75 Blinkie coupon = $1.24 each



Total: $13.90 minus $5 Deal = $8.90 out-of-pocket

I would have saved an additional .75 cents on one of the Fiber One bars but my P&G eSaver coupon did not show up on my Kroger card in time. Oh, well.

*Note: I also had trouble using the Kraft cheese blinkie coupons I got while there. The computer would only take 2. And the cashier didn't want to give it to me. I pointed out that the coupon said it was for all Kraft 2% Milk Cheeses including shredded, sliced, cubes, etc. And that I was careful to follow what the coupon said. She relented, and gave it to me. I don't know what the problem was. There was nothing that said "Limit 2" or anything. The coupon did show only the bagged shredded cheese on front, but SAID it was for ALL types of cheese. I had 2 Shredded and the rest were Kraft American slices. I wouldn't usually "fight" for my coupons, but I really feel justified in standing my ground on that one. I followed all the rules! LOL! (I wasn't mean to her or anything. I just told her why I thought she should allow it).

At Kroger.com, you can sign up for Proctor and Gamble eSaver coupons that are loaded onto your card and will work in addition to regular coupons. You can also load Kroger coupons on there. If you use your phone number (Alternate ID) to sign up, which I had to since I have lost my Kroger card, be prepared that it will take 24 hours for them to show up on your card. I didn't know this, and didn't get 2 of my coupons (Crest ProHealth toothpaste, which would have been FREE and Gillette Shaving Gel, which would have been .89 cents)

That's it for now!
