Extreme Couponing, Houston Frugal Living Blog
Here is the weekly ad for Kroger, this week we have a buy 10 get $5 Mega Event going. All prices listed assume you are buying 10 mega event items.
You can see my video HERE of how I shop at a Mega Event. This video was done when we could double or triple, so keep that in mind.
There are a TON of unadvertised items in this event, I have not been to the store yet to update this list, if you have been please leave a comment letting us know what you have found.

Just as angelic as she looks, this girl could easily raise a Village by herself, and all the children would grow up to be President.

Anyone want to trade some coupons? I need the kettle and silk q’s. I have everything saved that hasn’t expired.
if you go to http://www.silksoymilk.com there is a .75 cents off printable coupon (have to sign up or have a login)
Thanks. I printed them a while back and I’m waiting for a reset 🙂 I did get four today from a neighbor. Catalinas printed for .75 cents off. So yay! We go thru tons of this stuff.
I live in Spring and have two from newspaper $1 off 1/2 Gallon, and just printed the $0.75. I can stick them in the mail today if you want. We do regular milk.
Ah! Wish I would’ve read this and would’ve asked you for them today at randalls. I’ll PM you my address. Thank you thank you! Anything I can mail your way?
The $1.49 Wisk is an awesome deal! Also found some Colgate Mint Zing on sale for .86 cent. Used my .75 any colgate toothpaste q for a some .11 cent toothpaste.
Hi Nikka…is the Wisk already on clearance or did you use coupons to get it that low? I have some $2/1 Wisk coupons from a few weeks ago. Thanks for the help!
Where are you at… I have 4 silk Qs. I’ll trade for 4 life Qs.

what about the scotchbrite or ocelo sponges 3pk deal..using the pdf IP? is that a good deal?
Last month bought Scotchbrite individual sponge at Walmart. They are $0.84 each, had a $0.75 coupon for 2. They cost $0.47 each when buying 2. Doing this again this weekend.

How do you know what is going to be on sale ahead of time? How do you order coupons off the internet and get them before the sale is over? Love
your site by the way! CTR
It seems like there used to be a spot on the Kroger website that had ALL the participating items listed (in a long list format) but I can’t locate it on the site anymore. Does anyone know of such a thing?
On the first day of the sale I run in and grab the list of mega event items they display by the door. Lots of items not in the ad. You can check krogers site for other areas of the country I think Ohio for the ad that runs prior to ours. The mega events usually run 2 weeks so order coupons the day the ad cones out and you’ll have them in plenty of time!
where do you order the coupons from? newbie here…

this is the site I have saved as a back to order coupons. I haven’t ordered from them yet. Also don’t know the deliver time.
reach toothbrushes 1 ct. were 99 cents and reach floss was 49 cents with the mega events – there was a lot of reach coupons awhile back (not sure which month) – some are even moneymakers for this deal
used the 1.00 off tostitos tortilla chips coupon last sunday . buy tostitos chips and a pepsi 2 liter get a 1.00 off. i got both for 2.38
Went to Kroger today for the Mega event . . . . original tab? $220. After coupons and loyalty card? $104. THanks TIffany for the tips. You are such a great teacher : ) Keep up the great work. I so appreciate your efforts. Miss Vicki
I forgot to check this.. Hope you found your coupons, If not, let ms know. I’m in the woodlands as well. Couponmaster is a good sight. Fast service!
I have been to our local small town Kroger four times trying to snag at least one bottle of the Wisk detergent. I finally gave up and just got a rain check. Later I called the store manager and was told that some “extreme couponer” came in the morning the ad broke and got three shopping carts full. He said if he had been aware of the purchase he wouldn’t have let the person purchase them all. He has been trying to get it in all week and the warehouse is currenly out. I love to coupon. I recently lost my job and we are trying to get by on my husbands income with my unemployment checks. I just get so disgusted at people who do things like this. My goodness, how much can one family need? Clearing the shelves is just down right rude! We only have one good store in this small town that doubles coupons and runs such great deals so we all have to share. What do you do in situations like this?
I feel your pain. Really I do!
What I would do is stake out the ailse and wipe the shelf with her/him.
I think that possible if this person countinues down this path of selfishness your store will have to put a limit on these sales. Which has it’s good and bad sides. I have always been told the good apples suffer for the bad.
This printable gave me $1/1…
Aunt Jemima Frozen Entrees, Pancakes, Toast or Waffles,
$1/2 Aunt Jemima Frozen Pancakes PRINT (Facebook Coupon)
.50/1 Aunt Jemima Pancakes from Kroger Mailer (exp. 7/10 – Hurry)
I do wish 0ur Kroger would put a limit on how many items one person can buy. I just want to get one or two of each item and it seems like half the items on my list are completely gone off the shelves by Sunday evening. Greedy people disgust me.
