Kroger Mega Event: Readers Trips Rosemary and Sarah L.

I keep reading all your emails to my husband. I am so happy that so many of you are shopping at Kroger for the first time or trying any of these coupon deals and a mega event for the first time!

Kroger has changed the sale to a limit of 4 catalina’s per transaction. The reason that they do this is to make sure that they have the stock available for all their customers. It is pretty irritating to plan a trip and walk in a store and find the shelves empty. Now, if you can imagine being a Kroger manager and having a bunch of screaming customers as to why you have nothing stocked, when it was cleared out by 2-3 people is hard. Just something to keep in mind.
