It’s Bloggy Giveaway time again! Woo-hoo!! This time we are giving you the chance to win a $25 Kroger gift card courtesy of the NEW Kroger.com! Kroger has recently re-vamped their website and it is great! I’ve used it in the past and I really like the new features a lot, so I want to highlight a few of them for you. Since I’ve recently become a crazy couponer, I am using store websites more than ever to carefully plan my trips and deals. Kroger.com has some great tools to help with that. If you create an account in the “My Kroger” section, you can indicate your preferred store. Then you can look at the weekly ad online, and add specials from the sale paper directly to your shopping list, which Kroger.com saves for you! This feature was so convenient. I just clicked on the item in the ad that I was interested in, and a larger picture of the item and sale details appeared. Then I just clicked “add to list” and it appeared on my shopping list at the left margin of the screen! The list stayed there even when I went on to look at other items. Very cool! You can also print the list when you are done and take it right to the store with you!
Another feature I really like is the ability to print coupons! If you click on the “In Store” section, you can click on “coupons” and it will take you to Kroger-applicable coupons on Coupons.com, which you can then select and print. You can also load coupons from Procter & Gamble products such as Pampers, Tide, and Pantene directly to your Kroger Plus card online! I LOVE this feature, because these e-coupons can be combined with paper coupons in-store. Let’s say you have a P&G e-coupon on your Kroger Plus card for 50 cents off of Tide. If you have a paper coupon for Tide from the newspaper for $1 off, you can use both and get $1.50 off! Pretty cool!
Kroger.com also offers some other great convenience features perfect for busy moms. You can refill your rescriptions online, upload digital photos to the Kroger photo center, and even order flowers and have them delivered from the Kroger Floral department! Talk about a one-stop-shop!
The last feature I would like to mention is that there are lots of great recipes featured on Kroger.com that have been tested by the Kroger chefs. If you see one you like, you can just click and have all the ingredients loaded to your shopping list! You don’t have to write the ingredients down or make a separate list. Again, what a great, convenient time-saver!

This is Emily now… I just had to jump in and tell you how much I came to love Kroger.com this weekend! Like Jenny mentioned, you can go through the weekly ad and make your grocery list very easily. I also used the “add note” feature to put everything else I needed to get on there, so that my list was complete. It was great to do this at my computer because I could flip over and look for recipes or coupons or whatever.
The whole process led me to planning out my grocery list much more than I usually do… which also means I was throwing much less random crap into my cart when I was actually at the store. Since I was choosing sale items from the ad, I ended up only spending $82 and I saved $30! I also ended up with more “complete meals” than I would have if I was going off the cuff.
Kroger.com rocks!

the kroger by my house has the BEST deli sandwiches!!! they are HUGE and delicious. i buy two of them and our family of five has a great lunch on the go! a can of pringles and a bag of apples and a package of water bottles and that is how we love to get a car trip started. and honey, when they have their ten for 10 specials…. oh i’m so there…
I love my local Kroger’s double coupon policy (they double all manufacturer coupons 50 cents and under) and the fun catalinas (it’s always great to buy good food and get a coupon for $ off your next visit!). I’ve also appreciated how nice the cashiers/baggers tend to be, especially with my two children going wild.
Reasons I like Kroger:
1- my mom works there and i get to visit her while i shop
2- can you say double dollar coupons? – going on this weekend!
I love Kroger because their products are cheaper than other stores and the selection is amazing! The fliers and the Kroger Plus cards are great for discounting the gasoline, getting coupons in the mail for savings and also I always save money there!! Please pick me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i love how close it is to me!
I love shopping at kroger because they have good deals on organic stuff (at least around here!)
I love Kroger because they double coupons. Their store brand drinks are a hit with the hubby too.
I love Kroger because of their welcoming bakery. The heavenly scents just hit you as you walk in through the door. Of course I can’t resist grabbing a baked good for a treat. They are a really good place for FRESH produce unlike Walmart…
Oh the self checkout stays open longer unlike Walmart…at Walmart they sometimes only have like 3 lanes open at a time!
Kroger power!
Oh I like the 10 cents off gas and all the great discounts they offer in combo with your coupons….like getting $$ off next purchase, free turkeys, etc.
Thanks for letting me know about the new Kroger.com too! I feel like a winner already.:)
Kroger has the best sales on baby food!
Kroger’s ALWAYS has what you need/want. No waiting and no hassles.
I love the fact that they triple the coupons and my kids love the cookies and balloons each time we go in!
i love kroger’s. they have the organic bread that i like. thanks!
Can you say KROGER PLUS savings and the 10 cents off at the pump!
