Kroger Promotions: Discounted Gift Card Deals (Uber, Airbnb, Starbucks)

My first rule of retail shopping is to buy store gift cards. Get your discount before you ever make it to the store. You’ll get sale prices even if there is no promotion, simply pre-purchase a gift card from a gift card exchange site.

My favorite sites to shop for Discounted Kroger gift cards are eBay, Raise.com ($5 Off Code), CardCash or CardPool ($5 Off new user sign up). With pre-purchased Kroger gift cards you have already saved up to 6% on your entire purchase.

Your second step to saving money on retail is to always sign up for loyalty programs and memberships. This will get you exclusive deals, extra savings and even special store hours or promotions.

Kroger in particular sends out store coupons that include free items and lets you earn bonus fuel points toward discounted gas prices. I regularly get coupons for free eggs, frozen vegetables and other grocery items that I already routinely buy.

As mentioned above Kroger has their own store coupons which they mail out regularly to customers who sign up for their loyalty membership. But Kroger also accepts manufacture’s coupons to stack and also lets you use local competitor coupons.

Before you head out to the store, simply check their site and scan for coupons you can print to use in-store. Be sure to check Store Coupon Policy.

It’s probably the easiest way to save, you can choose from that week’s available digital coupons and add to your card. At check out, just scan your linked Kroger Loyalty card bar code number and your coupons apply automatically.

The Kroger app also create shopping lists, browse weekly store ads, refill prescriptions in seconds and check your fuel points.

A Catalina are the coupons that print next to your receipt in grocery and drug stores. Usually they require a total purchase amount or quantity to print. These are valuable because they are like a rebate for your purchase.

They are good on your next purchase usually with a short expiration date. We learn about Catalina coupons from folks that find them in the store and report on couponing sites or forums.

When you spend $100 with your Plus Card you earn 100 points. 100 points = 10¢ off per gallon of fuel for each fill-up. This is an easy way to save on gas when spending on regular expenses like groceries anyway.

In addition, the Fuel Program allows you to receive savings of up to $1 off per gallon on fuel purchases at Kroger and 10¢ off per gallon at participating Shell Stations.

If you don’t have an American Express Blue Cash Preferred Card, I’d recommend you get one. This card gives you 6% cash back at U.S. Supermarkets up to $6,000 per year in purchases and then receive 1% after.

For example, let’s say you spend $100 a week on groceries like I do in a household of 4, that’s easily $312 of savings a year! Don’t forget that’s also almost $4 in fuel points, at years end that would net you about another $128 in added savings.
