Saving at Kroger

There are tons of ways to coupon at Kroger. Here are some of the ways you can get started:

• Get Kroger coupons via the KCL app.

• Join Kroger Shopper’s Plus for digital coupons.

• Get Catalina coupons at checkout.

• Clip manufacturer coupons or bring digital manufacturer coupons. (You can only use one per item.)

• Sign up for the Kroger Cash Back Rewards program.

• Kroger gives overages on coupons, so you can actually get paid to make some purchases rather than spending money.

• Look for store coupons clipped to the shelves throughout the store.

• Get exclusive coupons for pickup or delivery orders.

You can initiate a Kroger Pickup order online or in the app. Pickup service is free for orders of $35+. Otherwise, there’s a $4.95 fee. When your order’s ready, simply head to the designated parking spots and let them know you’re ready to pick up your order.

Kroger actually offers exclusive coupons for pickup orders, so going this route can give you unique savings opportunities.

Kroger digital coupons are in-app coupons you can ‘clip’ if you have a Kroger Plus card. Here’s how to use Kroger digital coupons.

Yes, Kroger delivers. There are three options:

• Fulfilled by Instacart. This service can get you your groceries the same day. Instacart fees apply.

• Kroger Delivery. You can have your order delivered by Kroger’s directly the day after you place it or later. There is a fee of $9.95-$11.95 depending on where you live.

• Boost Membership Delivery. When you purchase a Boost membership, you’ll get free next-day delivery ($59/year) or free 2-hour delivery ($99/year.)

Regardless of which service you use to order, you’ll want to place your delivery through the Kroger app or Kroger.com. You’ll find inflated prices if you purchase through the Instacart app.

There are more than 3,200 Kroger stores across the country. When you count Kroger subsidiaries, there are more than 2,255 locations in 35 states.

• Baker’s

• Food 4 Less

• Fred Meyer

• Mariano’s

• Pay-Less Super Markets

• Smith’s Food and Drug

Kroger’s cash back rewards are offers that can be loaded to your Kroger account just like a digital coupon. First, you’ll need to sign up for a Kroger store loyalty card in-person, online, or in the Kroger app. Then, before your shopping trip, load available cash back offers for specific products onto your account. They’ll be applied to your order at checkout. You can then manage your cash back rewards in-app or on Kroger’s website.

Having a Kroger loyalty card opens up a ton of savings options, including these cash back rewards. Here are more details on how to save money at Kroger.

No, Kroger does not price match.

Usually, you’ll earn 1 fuel point for every dollar you spend at Kroger’s. You can earn up to 5 points for every dollar you spend on gift cards, depending on current promotions. You get $0.10 off per gallon for every 100 points you accrue. You can use Kroger Fuel Points at either Kroger gas stations or participating Shell gas stations.

Be careful, though. These points reset every month, so it’s a use-them-or-lose-them situation.
