I will be the first person to say how much I HATE grocery shopping! Even going to the grocery store can feel like an all-day ordeal. I have much better things to do than deal with the packed parking lots, the crowded aisles, and the long wait time in line. I get stuck on aisles that I didn't even need and waste time and money. What I do now instead is Kroger's online grocery pickup! You build a shopping cart online, choose a date and time, and park at a designated spot at the store. All of your groceries are brought out to you meaning you never step foot in the store!
Kroger's pick-up feature has saved me so much time and money! Now I build my list with whatever I actually need instead of being distracted in the store. Plus, there's so many more coupons for pickup orders than in-store. I stretch my Kroger points to the absolute max each month to make sure I'm getting the best deal possible. I've included some examples of pickup and delivery only coupons below. Right now, you can get a free home delivery with a $75 order. Your first 3 Kroger pickup orders are also free! It's also best to shop Thursday-Saturday this summer to get DOUBLE fuel points.
The first step you need to take is to set up a Kroger card. This will also help you save on gas each month. You can download the app here: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/kroger-co/id403901186. After setting up an account on the app, scroll through the digital coupons and save the ones you think you'll use. (You'll notice many of them are pickup only coupons.) You can even view the qualifying products right from the coupons to make sure you're buying the correct product to get the discount. I like to build my list based on what discounts are available week to week. I will rarely buy anything full price.
Kroger even has a new cash back feature that you should check before submitting your order. You can either cash this out through your Kroger orders or PayPal.
Every time you pick up your groceries, you'll get an email asking you to take a survey on your experience. When you do this, you get 50 bonus points to use on gas!
Every 100 fuel points is equal to 10¢ off per gallon when you're getting gas at Kroger!
Don't forget you can check out my older blog post to download free apps that will pay you cash for your grocery purchases: https://www.makingmoneywithmattie.com/post/free-apps-that-will-pay-you?fbclid=IwAR3wH64uwVsaS0314kzb8s5alhUVrKFemKnsDQ4SwXWVWuFk_V1kc6XOBdc
