Let's Go Krogering at the Cart Buster Savings NOW!
Thursday, February 24, 2011
Since I haven't been able to leave the house in two days (Princess A seems to be going through a second cycle of these bugs going around), I was starting to worry I would miss the Kroger Cart Buster Savings going on this week at Kroger.
As someone who was an extreme couponer before that was even a term, I do NOT like missing these sales where I can walk away paying next to nothing!
This morning I got 14 Banquet single serve frozen meals at 58 cents each, less 7/50 cents off/2 coupons that were doubled to $1. Total paid: $1.12.
.
Pillsbury Grands Biscuits 8 count are on sale for 99 cents. I had a 50 cent coupon off 3, doubled to $1. Total paid: $1.97.
Chef Boyardee on sale for 70 cents. I had 3 coupons for 50 cents off 3 cans, doubled to a $1. Total paid for 9 cans: $3.30.
I absolutely love Kroger's weekly specials. With double coupons and money off next purchase printed with receipts, their prices more than beat the big Superstore prices.
Not only do I stretch our grocery budget, but I can stock up on items - saving an untold number of trips to the store!

The best coupon deal I ever got was on tea. I can't remember what brand it was (this was years ago), but certain flavors were being discontinued, so it was marked down from $4.99 to $1.75 each. Then I had five coupons for $1.50 off each, making each box of tea 25 cents each. It was great!

I was able to get about $80 worth of proctor and gamble products for $20 at King Soopers, using the manufacture coupons, plus
a special deal where if you bought 10 P&G products the price on the products were reduced.

I generally wait till things go on sale to use my coupons, and when doubled, I've been able to get a lot of stuff for free or a few cents. Not like people on TV that get a whole cart full for a few bucks - I would love to be able to do that!

Free items! Sometimes even getting paid for them! I would use ecoupons and stack with store + manu coupons.
Otherwise, I average between 50-60% off on grocery trips

Just last week at Kroger I had over $100 of groceries. I had transferred a prescription and gotten a $50 credit loaded onto my loyalty card. So after that and my stack of coupons I paid $5.97 out of pocket. Loved it!!

my best deals have been getting products free (or just paying the tax if a non-food item) by matching coupons with sales. I don't spend that much time on it, but manage a few products every month - can't beat free :)

Back in the Pleisticene Era, Kroger used to offer triple coupons - usually on a Sunday. I would get all kinds of product for free. I would hoard my 35 cent and up coupons and wait for the mad dash to the store. I'd like to think I'm part of the reason they stopped doing that. LOL

Thank you for the giveaway. I love Kroger! They are usually the only ones who like taking free product coupons. That's probably the best I've done except when they accepted printed coupons and I had a slew of them from kraft. I stocked up on a lot of things for less.
None of the stores in my area double coupons :(

The free item coupons my grocery store sometimes prints out.
lunabutterfly79@yahoo.com
Our Kroger used to offer super double coupons where they would double $1 coupons and triple 50¢ coupons. I got tons of health and beauty items free this way. Sadly, they don't do this anymore, so we don't get too many coupon deals around here much.

My best coupon deal is the 10% off at Home Depot or Lowe's you can get as one of their "new movers" promotions (available at the post office or online). If you're buying a lot of stuff, the savings is big!
