Kroger Cart Buster Savings Event (+ GC Giveaway)

Published on: 1:16 AM by Unknown - 492 comments

If there’s one thing that I dread doing every week it’s going to the grocery store, not only do my children act like wild banshees when in public, I also end up playing “Let’s NOT Have a Heart Attack” when the cashier tells me my total.  If you’re like me, saving money on your grocery bill is a definite priority and there’s no better place to save money than Kroger during their Cart Buster Savings Event! 

From February 27th through March 12th, shop Kroger’s biggest-ever promotion and find the hottest prices around on more than 35 brands, across more than 60 categories from General Mills, P & G, Nestle, Pepsi and Kroger Banner Brands. During the Cart Buster Savings Event, you’ll find great savings in almost every department at the Kroger Family of Stores, which includes Kroger, Ralph’s, King Soopers, City Market, Dillons, Smith’s, Fry’s, QFC, Baker’s, Owen’s, Jay C Food Stores, Hilander, Gerbes, Food4Less, Pay Less Super Markets and Scott’s Food & Pharmacy.


Here are just a handful of the great brands participating in the event: Multigrain Cheerios, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Pillsbury, Betty Crocker, Hamburger Helper, Yoplait, Progresso, Totino’s, Green Giant, Cascadian Farm, Tide, Charmin, Bounty, Pampers, Pantene, Crest, Iams, Febreze, Old Spice, Bounce, DiGiorno’s, Nestle Toll House, Juicy Juice, Coffee-Mate, Edy’s, Stouffer’s, Lean Cuisine, Hot Pockets, Nestle Candy, Purina and many more!


Looking for even more ways to add money to your pocket? Visit Kroger.com/CartBuster to participate in their “Deal of the Day” promotion! During each day of Kroger’s Cart Buster Savings Event, be one of the first 1000 people to click on the deal link and receive a free load-to-card coupon for the featured daily item.

 

I decided to head out to Kroger this past weekend and see how much money I could save and how many great deals I could find.  I make it a habit to NOT use coupons as I find that when I do I only end up buying things that I normally would not and that makes my grocery bill bigger, so I love it when Kroger has great savings on so many brands and so many products that I already use…it makes my grocery bill shrink and my wallet (and husband) smile!  Needless to say my grocery bill on my last trip to Kroger was greatly reduced and enough money left over to buy a new handbag ( I have a bit of a problem with handbags).

    I make sure I keep my coupons with me in my purse so I always have them when I need them...too many times before I did that I lost out on savings. It really does make a difference.

    Using coupons on sale items, reduced meats and bakery bought in the reduced section of the supermarket and sometimes buying store brand or generic on items saves me money

    My favorite way to save is to buy on-sale items in the store, and store brands when I know the quality is just as good as "name" brands.
