I love when Kroger sends out the home mailers. We almost always get coupons for FREE items when we get the mailers. Usually it is for FREE Bic razors, something I will never need for the rest of my life. This month it was for lettuce and Ruffles chips (odd combination).
Kroger items not pictured:
1 bag Ruffles $3.79 used FREE item coupon
1 head lettuce 99¢ used FREE item coupon
1 Always pads $3.69 used FREE item coupon from Being Girl that was given out at Justice
1 Minute Maid OJ $2.79

2 Pepperidge Farm cookies $3.00 each
2 Nature Valley granola bars $2.99 each used FREE item coupon I won from twitter contest
1 Quaker granola bars $3.49 used FREE item coupon they had on facebook
1 Werthers candies $1.89
1 gallon milk $1.99

DO you think you are going to make it until the end of the year with only $73.79?
I have to tell you that I just love your blog. You are inspiring!
it is getting so close, even I am scared, lol
I love reading your blog. I want to try something like this starting in January just for the heck of it. To see if I can do it. Keep it up.
I love the Kroger coupons I get, but we rarely get a free item coupon. Kroger must like you more than they like me. LOL!
I hope you'll make it. But it'll be tough unless you get some great coupon deals and rebates I imagine. $800 for the year is about $15.38 a week. At the moment you have about $9.22 ... buttt I have faith in your stockpile, bartering and frugal finds!
How do you get Kroger mailers? Did you have to register your address with your rewards card?
Katy Ann, once you have your Kroger card then you need to call the number on the back of it and tell them you want to be added to the mailing list too for coupons.
If you do it soon enough you might be able to get in on a free turkey too!
I never get Kroger coupons sent...maybe I don't spend enough there out of pocket? :)
Ellen, you might want to call Kroger...I don't spend too much out of pocket either but get them all the time
Thanks! I did call & found out that my account was not 'clicked' on getting mail. I think when I first signed up, I opted for no mail since I thought it was just 'junk mail'. Little did I know... Thanks so much.
