So I just got back from Kroger! I would have made a video for you all but I had two kids with me one who is having asthma problems and I had to get out of the store in a reasonable amount of time!
Kroger started their Mega event this morning. During this Mega event, when you buy 10 participating items you get $5 automatically taken off your total when you use your Kroger card.
I bought 120 participating Mega items, so before I even used my coupons or Kroger sales prices were taken off they automatically took off $60!
My total before coupons, Kroger card and Mega event was $324.37!
After Kroger card, coupons and Mega event I paid $106.47! For all this!!
If I had not had ANY coupons, just my Kroger card I would have paid $198.74. So even if you don’t have any coupons it is still a great deal right now. But you have no excuse to not have ANY coupons, you can go HERE and see a list of ones you might need and print some!
I didn’t have a list when I went. When I walked in I grabbed a store circular and just started walking slowly down every isle. The Mega event items are marked very easily to read. If I came to a Mega event item, I just flipped through my binder to see if I had that item in coupons. I bought almost everything in 3’s because my store doubles and triples 3 of each coupon. For example the evaporated milk was on sale for $.99, but it was part of the Mega event and when I bought 10 items it dropped the price of the milk to $.49 cents, then I had $.50 off coupons so it made them FREE.
Also, much to my surprise I got back $5 in catalina’s after I checked out! $3.50 from General Mills for the fruit snacks, $1 for the Krustez pancake mix, and $.50 from Dole.
If you have any questions please leave a comment and I can help!

When we were asked to review this children’s book we were all over it! Obviously, I could supply the children part and fortunately my children love to read!
This is a darling book about two dogs Penny and Rio who have to work together with the help of another dog and mouse to figure out the mystery of the doghouse. My three older children ages 7, 9, and 12 were able to read this one their own and the 9 year old read it to the littler kids a few times. They all really enjoyed it and I loved the emphasis on working together and family in this book.
This book is written by Jennifer Swanson, you can see a trailer for the book HERE and also read a few excerpts from the book. Jennifer has won several awards for this series including 2 Mom’s choice awards! This is the second book in the series, my kids are anxious to read the first book, I have a feeling someone will be getting it for Christmas!
Penny and Rio will be available on Ripple Reader a web based audio player. Adults use it to make personalized audio recordings of children’s picture books. Children use it to listen to these custom recordings over and over. You can also ask your school to carry this book. This is a great feature for Grandparents and Parents in the Military or who are away for extended amounts of time.
Jennifer is giving one of my readers a signed copy and a personal message to your child written inside the book today! This would make a great stocking stuffer!
To enter leave a comment telling us what your favorite children’s book is…
