Posted by admin on Friday, July 15th, 2011 at 2:15 pm

PLEASE NOTE: Kroger stores are divided into 18 regions. Coupon policies vary by region and Weekly Sales Ad and sales cycles are different as well.
Click here to see the regional divisions.

While you can find a Kroger Corporate policy here on accepting internet printed coupons here, coupons policies vary region and some stores have their own.

*Kroger doubles paper coupons up to $.60 (check with your local Kroger to see if this is the case – some stores even triple coupons in the lower $.30′s and below.)
*Make sure you scan your Kroger card for low prices.

*Kroger will double/triple 3 identical coupons per transaction.  Also note that an ecoupon and a paper/printable coupon may not be used on the same product at the same time. Your ecoupon will come off automatically at checkout, so plan accordingly.

 DOWNLOAD COUPONS TO YOUR KROGER CARD OR IPHONE
To take full advantage of Kroger’s deals you MUST have a Kroger Plus card.  Be sure and visit www.kroger.com and register to your card and put in your current address and sign-up for their newsletter here. Their monthly newsletter will be mailed to your home and has FABULOUS Exclusive Kroger coupons. I receive coupons for free products often.
Click here to download Kroger e-coupons to your card or phone. Please note these coupons are Manufacturer coupons and they cannot be stacked with paper coupons. They also will not double! You can only download coupons to one address (even if your spouse has a different numbered card, it is linked to your address) You can only download up to 150 coupons to your card, just visit Cellfire, Shortcuts, SoftCoin & Upromise.
Basic things to know
The only real Kroger store coupon are the coupons for Kroger Store brand items.
Even though you may receive a coupon with the Kroger logo on it, that does not make it a Kroger Store coupon, look at the top of coupon by the date and notice it will say Manufacturer coupon, therefore you cannot stack this coupon.

    Unless it states otherwise if a product is 2 for $3.00 you do not have to buy 2
10 
KrKroger often has Mega Events, during this special sale you MUST BUY 10 items (etc.) to save $5.00 at the end.   Unless stated you can use a buy one get one free (BOGO) coupon on an item that is on sale for BOGO and get both products free without buying any of that product.

Scan Right Policy: IF an item scans up higher than the price marked on the shelf you can get that item for FREE (this does not apply to “clearance/saving’s aisle” products. 
Manager’s Specials/Clearance Section: Every Kroger store has a section where they have mark down items (these are not under the scan right policy). You can find some AMAZING DEALS on products and paired with a coupon, get them for free. The reason these items are marked down is due to shelf space, if they aren’t selling, the clearance them out. Meats, dairy products etc that are nearing their expiration date can be found in each department.
