This week's question comes From L in Johnson City TN:
How do you coupon at Kroger's?
Kroger doubles manufacturer coupons up to $.50.
The Kroger new sale starts each Sunday. Many weeks Kroger will have special incentives – i.e. Buy ten Proctor and Gamble items and get $5 off. It is VERY important that you watch to get exactly the correct number of items or you will lose the $5 (for example) off – a huge loss! Most of these offers will allow three offers per transaction, so you can actually purchase 30 items and get $15 off, and your goal is to match those items all with coupons for an even greater savings!
Be on the lookout for Kroger coupons. Kroger DOES NOT take competitor coupons or do price matching, however they do offer their own coupons. Be sure to register your card online to receive monthly mailers from Kroger. The more you shop Kroger, the more frequently you’ll be sent coupons.
Kroger offers CellFire and Shortcuts coupons. Go to shortcuts.com and cellfire.com to register your Kroger card. Once you register you will be offered coupons that you can load directly to your card. You can “stack” these coupons with manufacturer coupons, to get even better deals. However each coupon only loads ONE to your account, so if you buy 5 packs of Cottonelle, you will only save on one of those packages.
Kroger frequently offers “Buy . . . Save . . . ” deals. This is one you really have to plan for. Usually at least a few times a month, Kroger offers deals on specific products such as “Buy 8 items, Save $4″. These can make for some amazing savings, but it’s very important that you plan your trip wisely so that you get exactly eight of each deal (otherwise the price on the deal is usually too high!) One tip I’ve heard is to take your reusable grocery sacks and place eight items in each one so that you’re not constantly counting (or you can be like me and keep counting 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8 as you run through Kroger!)
Kroger offers loads of Catalina deals
Catalina:
They are coupons that print out at the register after your sale is complete. It
is a separate machine that is just for printing out coupons or dollars off.
Sometimes abbreviated as “CAT”, Catalina coupon machines located at register
dispense long receipt-like coupons that may be used on a future purchase.
Catalina’s, refer to the coupons themselves which may be manufacturer or store
coupons. Some Catalina coupons are advertised and some are generated based on
consumer behavior.
To
find out what Catalina's or sometimes called "Your Bucks" are in your
stores/area, go here:
My favorite "times" are at Kroger's 10 for 10 sales when you find a 50 cent coupon that doubles, manager specials that I have coupon's for!!! Be on the LOOK out for that awesome sticker!!
