Kroger - Mega Sale part 2

Can you believe they're doing the mega deal again?! I went to Kroger on Saturday morning and made peace - that it was my last time - and here we go again... Click here for last week's post. It looks like most of the mega deal stuff is the same. I had heard that the price of the sponges was going up this week though - so we may have lost some of our profit!

***added $1 off 2 Swiss Miss coupon to original Mega Sale post

Here are two of my receipts from last week - just for fun

Cheerios $2
5 Nail Saver sponges @ $1 = $4

Kroger - Mega Sale

The Kroger ad this week has a ton of items which when you buy 10 (any combination) you get $5 off your order. You may buy up to 30 items that qualify and get $15 off. Here is a super easy transaction:

Buy 10 Scotch-Brite Nail Saver sponges @ $1 = $10
Buy $5 worth of additional groceries (you cannot go negative after coupons)

Print/Use 10 $1 off NailSaver coupons
Out of pocket = $0

More Mega Saver Items (buy 10, any combination). For each item, you assume that an additional $.50 is taken off each (10 items divided by $5)

  • Scotch Lint Roller mini (not trial size) $1, use $1 off roller = .50 profit (same deal as sponges)
  • Swiss Miss Hot Cocoa $1.50, buy 2 use $1 off 2 printable and .50 off 2 shortcuts coupon** = .25 each
  • Betty Crocker Box Potatoes $1.50, use .35 off paper coupon (doubled) and .35 off shortcuts coupon**= .05 profit
  • Evaporated Milk 10/$10, use .50 off 2 paper coupon = free (Pumpkin pie, right...or is that condensed milk)
  • Advil 20-24 ct $2, use $2 off Advil - - I saw this in another blog, but I couldn't find $2 Advil!
  • Bic Sensitive or Silky Smooth disposible razors $2.50, use $2 off Bic paper coupon = free
  • Dove Ice Cream Bars $2.50 = $2 after Mega Saver discount...It's not free, but boy are they yummy...buy them in a pinch if you need 10 items. Also, look for boxes that say "coupons inside" or something like that (maybe on the Snickers boxes) and you can go back for more on your next trip!!
  • Quaker Oats $1.50, .50 off paper coupon = free
  • Tylenol PM 24 ct $2.50, $2 off paper coupon = free
  • Tylenol Rapid Release $2.50, $2 off paper coupon = free
  • Deer Park 3 liter water $1, $1 off 2 paper coupon = free

**Shortcuts Coupons are loaded onto your Kroger card and are taken off automatically at the end.

I believe Jacob thinks Kroger is a part of his new bedtime routine this week...
