Krogering Experience



Alright this is what I got at Kroger last night. I had to do two separate orders because I bought 40 things on the buy 10 items get $5 back deal. Something else, understand that I did ALL my grocery shopping for the week. I am going to give you my item number total, my total out of pocket, and I am going to break down the 40 things that I bought and the coupons I used. I will also try to tell you some of the items on the sale that I didn't do that you might want to try. Just to give you a heads up the Kroger I went to didn't have any of the Evaporated milk so I don't know if I would plan on buying that. Here we go:

Some items I didn't do:

Duncan Hines icing it was $1.34 or $1.48 cake mix was .99, you have coupon for .75 off the two.

Glade scented oil candles, I don't think the big ones was on the 10 items sale but they have them marked down to $5.34 you should have a bogo coupon plus $2 coupons so could do this:

2 x $5.34 - bogo - $2 = $3.34 for 2

Right now this is really all I can remember. If something else comes to me I will be sure to add it. I hope this helps you guys with your shopping trips this week. Let me know if I have been a help.

  1. I haven't shopped yet - q's totally unorganized! I did run to kroger to peek this morning as I dropped DH off at work.

    Did your store still have the $2.00 glade blinkies? Mine doesn't! I *wish* I had went in earlier this week and just stood there for an hour pulling some out! :(

    Great deals! Thanks for the breakdowns. Did your store have any of the scotchbrite rollers or nailsaver sponges? I think those were free/overage with coupons.

    Also, ziploc baggies were 1.50. There was a 1.50 off of 2 coupon recently. So... 3.00/2 - 1.50 q - 1.00 sale = .50 for 2 boxes! Not free, but certainly not bad for Ziploc brand.

  2. I haven't shopped yet, but here are some items I noticed.

    (did your store still have the 2.00 glade blinkies? mine is out! i would soooo love to get some! mad at myself for not going back)

    Ziploc bags - 1.50 - recent 1.50/2 coupon makes them .25 a box after sale/q

    Scotchbrite nailsaver sponge or lint roller - 1.00 - makes it .50 overage on each one with 1.00/1 coupons

    Glade has a promo where you buy 5 or more items and get 4.00 oyno coupon. These are included in the sale, and there are recent insert q's (or the blinkies :( ) that will make this a good deal.
