there will not be Super Doubles.


But

there may be triple coupons up to $0.50 Thursday - Sunday. Now do not hold me to this, this is just what a little birdie told me and each area could be different but I plan to have my coupons and a shopping plan ready just in case.

Have a great day.:smile77:

Up to .50 tripled above that is normal double/face value
no limit at that store but I would assume that since the other store enforces a doubling limit they would on tripling also.

I called corporate and they said call the stores that if they are participating they will know today.

04-06-2009, 05:30:55 PM
well I just went and scoped out my local Krogers, assuming that they will be doing triples, and I'm not so exicted anymore. I found maybe one or two items that would be a good deal. Everything else is regular high price. Unless they have an add that shows some other things on sale, I don't think I will be going to do the triples. Only wishing for a super double!

Now why would they do this on THIS weekend of all times?

I was at Kroger tonight, and, I have never seen so many empty shelves. Milk, dairy, frozen foods, meat almost everywhere. Maybe they are cutting back in stock due to the economy?

Dumb question alert - does this ONLY apply to coupons $.50 and less? How would, for instance, a $.75 coupon be treated? Doubled?

Comfirming triples up to .50 at Kroger in Sunbury, Ohio... Starting Thursday 4/9...

Dumb question alert - does this ONLY apply to coupons $.50 and less? How would, for instance, a $.75 coupon be treated? Doubled?

During .50 triples a .75 coupon would be face value only.

.50 triples means coupons less than or equal to .50 will be tripled. So a .25 coupon ==> .75. A .50 coupons ==> $1.50. .55 ==> .55.

Tonight I verified at my store that Barilla Pasta is still $1.50 each. Using the .50/1 Piccolino Pasta cpns tripled makes them FREE. Same goes for the Barilla Whole Wheat Pasta is you got the .50/1 instead of the 1.00/2 cpns = FREE w/tripled cpns.

I am still waiting for my .50/1 cpns I traded for several days ago-hope they get here.

The French's Mustard is 10 for $10. If you recd the .30/1 cpns that would make them .10 OOP. Then you get the 1.00 WYB 2 Catalina making them .40 each money-makers.

I just talked to my local Kroger(Mansfield, OH) they said there will be a special 4 day sale that starts Thursday. There will be an add in the paper but not until Thursday boo no sneak peak. There will be NO limit on how many coupons can be tripled! Tripling up to .50 lucky me I have another Kroger near by that is participating who double up to .99. I'm doing lots of shopping!

smithdawn36-It's actually the Kroger on Coshocton Ave in Mt. Vernon that doubles up to .99 I am in Loudonville so its about 30 minutes to go to either Mansfield of Mt Vernon.

If they have a special ad (like a 4-day special or whatever), it should be displayed on their website along with the regular ad. My stores have 4-day sales nearly every week, and you can see the ad online as well as in print.

It would be super nice if other regions were doing this too...

I keep reading about he BC Potatoe POUCHES. I looked tongiht and all I see are the boxed version-and those aren't 1.00 but 1.99 each.

Also, can anyone post how this type of cpn turned out:

The cpn is for 50/2 and the item sells for 1.00 each. I assume it would really only DOUBLE since the register determines the price of ONE item, that being $1, and I end up paying 1.00 for two items.

I would really like to believe :) it would triple for -$1.50 and my total would be .50 for two items-what has happened to others on this issue?

Thanks!

The BC pouch potatoes should be right there in the same area. Look near the other brands of pouch potatoes. BC comes in I think three kinds. cheddar & sour cream (yum!), roasted garlic and I think butter & herb.

I didn't use a .50/2 coupon today but I do think if your 2 items are 1.00 each then during this .50 triple event the coupon should triple to 1.50. Hope it does. :biggrin:

I used a .50/4 Campbell's Chunky Soup cpn today and it tripled to 1.50...but since they are 1.65 each, it's really not the same as your question. Sorry. That's the best I can say. I'm going back tomorrow to do some real shopping (had my little guy with me today) so I'll see what happens!

Confirmed in Toledo area.
My Kroger ad says no electronic or internet printable coupons will be tripled.

Odd about the IPs since they double without problem. Anyone tried to use an IP?


I went last night and used a whole fistful of IPs. They all tripled without a problem.

I just wanted to let you all know that I did not get overage at my store. The Qs tripled up to the amount of the item, but didn't go over. IE: Betty Crocker potato pouches were $1.00. I had .40 IPs. The receipt showed the .40 coming off and then .60 was the bonus.

I also used IPs and they tripled without a problem.

I also used a $.50/2 coupon and it tripled as well.
