Kroger Plus Shoppers Card

Congrats to commenter #10, Cheryl! She is the lucky winner of the $30 Gift Card.

Following on the heels of the awesome Kroger Super Doubles event, the Kroger Mega Savings event is now in full swing! And not just in TX and LA, but nationwide at the Kroger Co. Family of Stores.

August 16-September 2nd, the Mega Event features many brands and major savings. Here’s how it works:

Buy 10 participating items in one transaction and use your shopper card at check out to save $5 instantly. New this year, there is NO limit on the number of rewards per transaction!

To name a few of the brands you can purchase: Aquafina, Betty Crocker, Cascadian Farms, Cheerios, Chex Mix, Fiber One, Fritos, Life, Nature Valley, Sobe Life Water, Tropicana, Yoplait and MORE!

The key is to combine coupons with the mega event for the most savings. I recommend shopping early to avoid crowds. Look for the double yellow tags in the store to find the participating items.

The folks at General Mills and PepsiCo have provided me with a $30 gift card to use at Kroger during the event. I will update later this week with my savings, and I can’t wait to see how far I can stretch $30!

I also have a $30 Gift Card for one lucky reader! This card is accepted at Kroger and all affiliated Kroger Family of Stores.
