Before Shopping at Kroger

Before you begin shopping at Kroger you need to do a few things:
First you need a Kroger Savings Card, you can get this by going to Customer Service and requesting one. They are free to you and save you tons of money, you don't get the sales prices without it.

Next you need to register your Kroger Card with the following sites. They allow you to load coupons directly to you Kroger Card, and can be used in combination with a paper mfg q and/or a store q. Which gives you even greater savings.

Store Policies

I had friends over earlier this evening that were curious about couponing and wanted to know how to get started. Well, I think we covered the basics, but I didn’t realize how much I really knew. I guess I just thought that everyone knew how to coupon but just didn’t.

So let me start with some of the basics for my area. I shop mostly in Burleson and Crowley, but also shop in Arlington and Mansfield.

Albertson’s

*Please note that at all of these store you can combine a manufacture q with a store q to maximize savings.
For example, last week Albertson’s has a coupon for a 24 pk of soda for $3.99 with additional purchase. I was able to purchase the 24 pk of Diet Coke and use the $3.99 Albertson’s coupon along with my $1 off 24 pk of Diet Coke peelie coupon.
So I paid $2.99 for a 24 pk of Diet Coke.
