Kroger Chain Stores: Have a Coupon Problem or random Question? Ask it here!

[cintinative]

Okay so I went to Kroger's yesterday with my Plus card loaded with a $3.00 off two Huggies coupon from Cellfire. I had apparently previously loaded on a $1.50/1 coupon for Huggies on Cellfire and a $1.00/1 coupon from Shortcuts. I was thinking that since I was buying 2 packages it would automatically use the Cellfire $3.00/2 coupon. Wrong. It took off $1.50/1 cellfire and $1.00/1 shortcuts. I am not sure I understand at all how this works. Is it totally random?? I am thinking I need to not load these types of coupons on until I am sure I am loading the best one on the card. I thought the more recent would overwrite the older but I was wrong I guess.

You'll find the Kroger experts over on the Kroger forum under "grocery stores". I'll bet someone there knows exactly how this works.

OK i dont know if this has been asked, but I hope someone can help me out. I just loaded coupons on my kroger card from the p&g website.. now heres were i get confussed... Say i got purchase Gain thats on sale right now for 4.99 I have this weeks coupon for .50 off and double that. does the coupon on my kroger card get used to???? and if so is it doubled??? so i quess what i am wondering is if i buy something on sale can i use a paper coupon and the card coupon i loaded on my card....thanks a bunch

Yes, you can always use a paper coupon on items that are on sale. You can use a paper coupon and the loadable coupon will come off also, wether it be from P&G, shortcuts or Cellfire. Not sure if 2 loadable coupons will come off at the same time tho, but yes they can be combined.

Oh Snap... OK I think I did something wrong but i cant figure it out. My boyfriend and I both have our own kroger cards. So i loaded his and mine up with coupons. I had it figured to a T of what we were getting and the price. I go to cash out and none of my coupons from p&g, shortcuts or cellfire were removed off my bill. I was so dissappointed :( Then i look over and see the smile on his face and he tells me that he purchased more than me and all his coupons that were loaded were taken off his bill.....I went back to the sites to make sure I loaded them correctly and all was good....What did I do wrong :( Good news hes excited about couponing now he sees how much he can save....Me not so happy

Thats a bummer for you but good for your BF. I don't have an answer for you other than is it possible you didn't buy the correct item or size? I signed up for cellfire just a week or so ago and I've purchased fiber one bars a few times on the mega sale and it didn't come off. This reminded me to check and it shows ready to use:shrug7: so I don't know whats going on either.

Yup we both bought the same items, and had the same stuff on our cards. I quess Ill try it again. Needless to say hes still rubbing it in my face. Ha Ha

We have a local store that is owned by Kroger and it's called Jay-C. They are doing the Mega Event too.

Now the ad says buy 10 and get $5 off...how is buying 10 and getting $5 off making these items super cheap?

I mean they are higher priced than Walmart and even with the sale and coupon Walmart will be cheaper. So am I just missing something or is there a way to make this work for me? Thanks for any advice. And if this needs to be moved I understand. And sorry if it's already been asked.

Do they have the same Ad as Kroger?

[jillibean_1978]

nope it's completely different. They do have Kroger items on sale there. Most of the items that are on sale seem to be Kroger brand.
