Reset BOGO Deals

Buy one, get one free sales work differently depending on your Kroger store. At some stores, you buy one at full price and the second rings up free. At others, you only have to buy ONE and it rings up at 50% off. Check the Kroger app -- if it says "Buy One, Get One Free," you need two. If it just shows a half-off price, you only need one. This matters because you cannot use a coupon on an item that rings up as free.

New to Couponing?

If this is your first time stacking deals at Kroger, here is your quick starter guide:

Download the Kroger app and create an account. All digital coupons are clipped through the app or website. Link your Kroger Plus card so coupons apply automatically at checkout.
Use the Scan feature to check coupon eligibility. When a deal only works on select varieties (like Kellogg's Cereal or Milk Bone), open the Kroger app and scan the barcode to confirm the digital coupon applies before you head to checkout.
Clip all relevant digital coupons before you shop. Go through each deal section and clip every coupon you plan to use. Digital coupons are one-time use unless noted otherwise.
Check whether your store does true BOGO or 50% off. This determines how many items you need to buy and whether coupons work on the free item.
Download Ibotta, Fetch, Swagbucks, Social Nature, and Aisle. Activate offers and request freebies before you shop.
For the 5X digital event, clip the 5X coupons before checkout. These are store coupons that stack with manufacturer coupons. You can use them up to five times in one transaction.

Tips for This Week's Kroger Run

Sargento Cheese Bake Crackers at $0.14 is the steal of the week. A $0.50 5X coupon, $2 Ibotta, and a 2,500-point Fetch kicker stack to take a $4.49 box down to pocket change.
Two freebies, two free platforms. Set up Social Nature and Aisle accounts before you shop so the Skipjack Tuna and Cleveland Kitchen offers are queued up.
Werther's 2 for free is the easiest moneymaker-adjacent deal. Two bags at $2.00 each, $4 Swagbucks rebate, both free.
Pop Tarts Lemon Blueberry Crumble clearance is still around. $0.14 per box at clearance store- do a sweep down the cereal aisle while you are there.
Stack the Milk Bone weekly digital with both Ibotta and Fetch. This is a rare three-way stack that brings a $2.99 bag of dog treats down to $1.72.
Skippy Peanut Butter is a clean pantry play. $3.29 minus a $1 5X coupon and an $0.81 Fetch kicker lands at $1.48 per jar.
Simple Mills cookies and crackers stack the same way. $1 5X coupon plus an Ibotta rebate gets you premium snacks for under $2.50 a box.
