Special Note: The Grand Opening Affair for the new Kroger Marketplace at 130 Pavillion in Newport, Kentucky starts on Thursday December 10th with freebies each day beginning at 7:00 a.m. Mark your calendars as there are some good freebies to receive. So you have to get up a little early, but it could definitely be worth it. Let's see.....if you tumble out of bed early on Thursday, December 10th, run over to Kroger's (you can put your makeup on later) and be in the first 300 customers (I'll wave at ya), you get a $10 Kroger Gift Card. I'm going to run over there Thursday and get 2 of the Coke 12 pks for $1.99 ea. and get get my gift card. Then I'm going to walk to my car and put the cokes in the trunk and walk back in and get 10 Packs of Angel Soft tissue paper and a candy bar with my $10 Gift Card. WOO HOO! That is definitely worth getting up a little early for. The Angel Soft normals sells for $1.26 to $1.46 per 4-pk and the cokes are $3.49 and up right now. So I would be getting about $20.75 worth of product for about $4.23. That's a 80% savings and the tissue paper is an item I needed to stock up on. You can bet I'll be there.

Kroger Coupon Matchups 10/26/2009

MEGA EVENT RUNNING AGAIN 11/2/2009

The Mega Event is running again this week with a few changes. I will update again tomorrow after I do another walk through at lunch time. I have updated the original post and added new coupons in where they apply. The newest items have been added at the end.

10 Item MEGA EVENT
Buy 10 participating items and get $5 off instantly at the register.

Lean Cuisine Entrée - $1.99

Cheez-It Crackers - $1.49
- Use $1.50/2 MFC from 10/4/09 Red Plum - Final Cost = $.74/ea. (Mega Event = $.24/ea.)

Chex Mix - $1.99 (7-8.8 oz.) - $1.99
- $.50/1 Printable - Final Cost = $.99 (Mega Event = $.49/ea.)
- $.50/1 Printable - Final Cost = $.99 (Mega Event = $.49)

Edy's Ice Cream - $2.99 (48 oz.)
- Use $2/2 from Nestle Home Mailer - Final Cost = $1.99/ea. (Mega Event = $1.49)
- Use $1/1 MFC from 8/23/09 Smart Source - Final Cost = $1.99 (Mega Event = $1.49)

Kraft Cheese - (Select Varieties) - $2.99
- Use $1/2 Printable - Final Cost = $2.49 (Mega Event = $1.99)
Note: This product is not worth buying for this event. You will be able to get the cheese cheaper when the event is over and the coupon is good until 11/24/2009. I'd save my coupons

Keebler Fudge Shoppe Cookies - $1.49
- Use $1.50/2 Printable - Final Cost = $.99 (Mega Event - $.49)

Nabisco Chips Ahoy Cookies - $2.49
- Use $1/2 MFC from Nabisco Home Mailer - Final Cost = $1.99 (Mega Event = $1.49)

Swiss Miss $.99
Note: I couldn't find a coupon out there but the Mega Event makes this $.49 which is not a bad price.

Del Monte Tomatoes - $.99 (Mega Event = $.49)
Note: There are a ton of coupons on E-Bay for $1 off 5. I purchased 15 for $1.60. To figure it up correctly, divide the $1.60 by 15 and you get $.106. The scenario is this: 10 cans of tomatoes = $9.90 - $2 MFC - $5 Instant Rebate + $.106 + $.106 = $3.11 or $.31/can. Much better deal. If you don't need 15 coupons like I don't, then be generous and give some away at the store or to your friends and family. Better yet, split the cost with them and recoup some of your money spent.

My Kroger Mega Sale Shopping Event

After doing the matchups last night, needless to say it was waaaaaaaay to late to go to Krogers and cash in on the Mega Event. So I trucked off this evening at 7:30 p.m. to see what I could come up with. Tell me how you did. I love hearing how people save money using coupons.

I made 4 trips and here is what I purchased.

3 Boxes of Trix Cereal

9 Boxes of Hamburger Helper (I found four flavors on sale for $.80)

2 Glade Soy Base Candles

2 Carmex Products

4 Musketeers Candy Bars

1 Betty Crocker Frosting

1 Carefree Femine Product

2 John Morrell Lunchmeats

1 Bagel-Fuls

6 Pillsbury Crescent Rolls

10 Pillsbury Grands Biscuits

6 Pillsbury Grands Cinnamon Rolls

6 Pillsbury Grands Danish Rolls

1 Betty Crocker Frosting

1 Betty Crocker Pouch Cookie Mix

Total Cost Before Sales, Mega Event and Coupons: $109.15

Total After Sales, Mega Event and Coupons: $29.18

Percentage Savings: 74%

I had to do some fancy footwork with the coupons because Krogers in Latonia has changed their policy again. You can't purchase any more than 5 of the same product at one time. Makes it a bit of a challenge when you have several $1/2 coupons. They used to double printable coupons that said "Do Not Double". Not anymore so don't even try.

I had a very nice conversation with the Manager and Service Manager regarding the changes they have made. It seems some couponers are not following the Golden Coupon Rules. They apparently have had numerous customers come in with 30 coupons of the same product at one time and wipe out the shelves, which left nothing for the rest of the customers. They are not certain what is going to be on the trucks when they come in so they cannot guarantee they are going to get more of the sale product in for the rest of the customers. In an attempt to be fair to all of their customers, they put the policy into place. I'm glad they did. I realize the economy stinks right now (not the word I really wanted to use), but we are all in this together and it's just not nice when a store has a great deal on something for one or two people to come in and wipe out the shelves.

We preach stocking up. I'm all for it and have my very own stockpile. Tonight when I went to purchase all of the Pillsbury items (I have a fundraising breakfast coming up), I checked first to make certain they either had plenty on the shelves or more in the back, which they did. Next time you have the urge to buy 20 boxes of cereal at the great price of $.50 each, think of the mom who has two children to feed and only $30 a week to spend. Then put 15 of those boxes back. Check with the Manager and see before you go haywire stocking up on a great deal. Whether it's the Couponer's Rule or the Golden Rule, we're all in this economic nightmare together. Whew....I'm off my soap box now.
