I am a little unhappy that other regions got better prices than we did with Mega sale. Contemplating emailing corporate although I doubt it will do any good.

It stinks doesn't it Jenn? I know for a fact the Delta region is one of the "poorest" areas of the country income wise, so why jack our prices up? Doesn't make any sense at all!!!

I was considering doing this too, but I figured that since the mega deal runs through 11/10 that some of these prices might drop before then
-I certainly hope they do!

BTW- after a lot of online searching I found a list of participating items that someone on another forum picked up at her Kroger in TX. I'm kind of using this to organize my coupons, so I won't miss anything. There are a lot of items on the list that have coupons expiring on 10/31-looks like I might be spending my Halloween at Kroger. :hectic1:

If anyone is interested in looking at the list-feel free to PM me - I have it saved as a google doc and it looks like its accurate according to what I've read on all of the forums.

What upsets me is that some Kroger stores triple coupons or double $1 q's, but my stores (Little Rock area) only double up to .60cents, and some accept expired q's, too. Arkansas is one of the poorest states, I would think, so we need more promotions and deals.

Your logic works for me, but what about the fact that our southern states (I'm in MS) are the fattest in the nation? Maybe they jack our prices and/or don't give us the good deals because they know we'll buy junk regardless of the price? Junk: all the boxed goods, canned goods, processed foods that normally have all the good deals/coupons in other regions.

Just a thought.

bethanyblair: I shop at that Kroger too. :)

People talk about the deals that they have seen discussed in other regions when waiting for upcoming sales... I have to admit I have gotten to the point that I never even look at the threads in the other regions because I am always disappointed with the differences. I am always surprised on Wednesday mornings because I never even browse the others!

I haven't made it to the store yet and don't know when I will at this point. Y'all just keep the chat up!

Accept expired Q's?? I'm wondering if you would mind mentioning which stores in LR allow this. I've been pretty sad lately because they've stopped accepting the IP Qs.

I glance thru the Cincinnati ad (I think it is) if I see someone talking about an upcoming mega event or other special thing, but I try not to pay too much attention to the prices - just the items. That way if I see a sale on something coming up that we use all the time I can order coupons to match it. But if I get psyched up for the prices I'm almost always disappointed. :sad:
