Many of the Kroger deals are the same as they were last week which is a bit of a bummer in my opinion because I was REALLY hoping for a Mega sale like they had at this time last year!

My Kroger stores double three “like” coupons with a face value up to $.50 and triple three “like” coupons with a face value up to $.39. Your market may be different. Check with your store for details!

Don’t forget to load your coupons to your Kroger card:
