I believe that ecoupon is for the 24 mega roll size.

Yes, you can. I did it and it works like a charm.

yes I did and it worked fine

I like it because they do it 2 weeks. It allows me to get coupons from sources on e-bay and get them in the mail. We fill shoeboxes for Operation Christmas Child and I have been able to purchase 1,153 tubes for less than 20 cents a tube with Kroger sales. My Kroger store orders the large amount but sometimes it takes a few days to get all of it in. Always remember get a rain-check if they don't have the item. Sorry that you don't like it, but maybe this will help you to understand why some of us like it. Have a good day. Helenet

Maybe it depends on your area. Mine is available Saturday morning.

I have them scan my card first. As they ring up items, ecoupons come off. At the end, I give printable & m coupons.

hate walgreens- only for the milk
love rite aid and cvs

I was very nervous too. I've been at it for about a few months now, and it is great. Kristan has great advice, collect a few Sunday papers for a few weeks to get started on coupons if you really have none. I now buy 2 sunday papers, and have a friend that gives me hers. Otherwise, getting a subscription to All You magazine is also a great idea (it comes packed with coupons). If you will be shopping at Kroger, I like when I'm in there to walk up and down the aisles and pick up coupons that are “blinkies” (The little boxes that you grab coupons out of with a blinking red light on them in the aisles.)
I have a Kroger, Food City, Food Lion, Walmart, CVS, Walgreens all within about a 1/2 mile distance of my house. I by far prefer Kroger. I also use CVS and Walgreen's constantly as my drugstore buys.
Kroger and CVS over my 'learning period' have been great with customer service and assistance. They are willing and love to help you out. Don't be nervouse and don't be afraid to ask them questions as well, you aren't the only person walking in their store with coupons and questions. Will be glad to help you on here also. Have fun!

I know that where I live in Georgia it will be 1.99 not 1.79. I was bummed.

Mine said that too and then I realized I had to add my Kroger card. Once I did that there were 76 items available and no more problems. Hope that helps. My zip is 26505 if that helps but I didn't see a place to put my zip.

When you go to print the list, click the box beside the item you want to add (i.e. Charmin Toilet Paper). Then go to the bottom of the list, make sure you click the box that says “Include Coupon Matchups”, then it will include all of the avaliable coupons for that item (for the toilet paper it would include the 15-20 coupons listed for that item). I don't have a computer at home, so at work I click “Select All Items” then click “Include Coupon Matchups” and click print. I print 2 pages on 1 sheet to save paper, but you can print it regular size also! HTH!

I've had no problems combining ecoupons with manufacturer coupons and store coupons. In fact, I suspect that I'm getting double coupons on cellfire coupons less than $0.50. I'm not sure about that though. I'm still testing it out.

Yes. Their policy is essentially that both items are half off. You don't need to buy two, but you could use two coupons

I would too. That doesn't seem right since the store is getting paid for the coupons.

Did you see a money amount or only that it was a bonus? If you signed up for boxtops with your Kroger card that could be what you are seeing. They now credit your school when you buy certain products. I saw this on my receipt from the Campbells promotion for labels for educations when I bought the Chunky Soup last week.

you won't really know unless you either ask your store or try it and see if it works. I've never had a problem using both, but it seems some people have. happy couponing ;)

I am missing the q as well. I also was missing the Atkins $1 coupon. Huntsville, AL.

I have this problem. You're lucky cust. serv. would help. My store's cust. serv. told me to call from home.

The same thing happens to me too, frustrating!

Yes, they have for me before, plenty of times.

Do you have self check out at your store? My sisters told me that you couldn't use ecoupons & paper coupons–the cashier wouldn't let them. I never knew that because I always use the self check out & I always use ecoupons & paper coupons. You might want to give it a try.

My Kroger does not pay any attention to the ecoupons at all. They just look at the paper coupons so the ecoupons are just a bonus. Thompsons station, tn

I can understand it is frustrating as well, but….

I have been using e-coupons religiously for over a year. However, my total savings is only about $75 total since I have been using them. I have saved that many times over with the paper coupons combined with sale. I mean, there's really no way anyone was making out like a bandit with the e-coupons because they limit us to one load per card.

With that said, this time there are awesome e-coupons, such as $3 off Charmin. The only paper I could stack with that is $1 so if I can't, not exactly a big deal. In this case, I would rather have the e-coupon and use the paper another time. Not going to stop needing toilet paper in the near future.

A lot of the time, the e-coupons are just duplicates of the paper and a lot of the time it makes the paper ones better, since they can be doubled. Some of the e-coupons are pretty pathetic, like .50/2.

When this policy goes chain wide, then I will just pick certain items I will never purchase again because I only took them home due to the extreme savings. (I posted this sentiment on another Kroger thread). I don't know who will lose out in such case–I guess the manufacturer. Because, plain and simple, these days people just can't afford all the “goodies” they formerly did. One deal that comes to mind is M&M's. I had a paper coupon for $1.50/2 as well as e-coupon. I would never have bought the candy if I only had one coupon. Most likely I would have waited for an awesome CVS candy deal.

And even if people can “afford” it, they would rather use their money elsewhere as opposed to fancy over-priced cleaners and body wash. I was thinking of doing the swiffer deal, but I would still have to buy refills in the future. So even with e-coupons and paper, I don't think I would have bought it.

This is just one trip to the store. In the future, you can plan ahead and take coupons off your card in order to get the better savings with paper, if need be.

If you really want to push the matter, use self check-out or don't unload your cart until the cashier takes your Kroger card and scans it. I had one cashier tell me to give her my paper coupons before she ever started the transaction. I ignored her. For one thing, I use the time during my groceries being checked as time to make sure I have all the right coupons and that I actually got all the items that I have coupons for. Sometimes, I don't find the item or I think the price is still too high.

Also, I buy a LOT of groceries at once, so it might be difficult for them to police whether I have a paper coupon that matches the e-coupon.

To be frank, if I get any feedback from my Kroger that we can't do it, I'm not going to. I have looked at past Kroger receipts and it's not that much of a gain for me. I have piles and piles of paper coupons taken off at the end and maybe 5 or 6 e-coupons.

Now that Wal-Mart does overage (actually at mine they always did but now it's official) I will more aggressively look to them to get my overage deals. I'm used to changing my shopping strategies in order to benefit myself. It's all a game between consumers and retailers. They will go so far to get a customer hooked and then believe that customer is not going to go anywhere else and back off the deals. That's what Kroger is doing. They are tired of giving away the farm and want some healthy profits now. (I have read in Wall Street Journal that Kroger shareholders have wanted them to raise prices for a long time).

I am prepared to shop any store if I get the deals there. I am also prepared to say a quick good-bye if they no longer have the deals. I just love capitalism.

Where are you in Alabama? I went to my Kroger in Opelika the other night and didn't have a problem stacking. I even had to go to customer service for them to re-scan all my items/coupons because there was a misunderstanding and the cashier scanned a Kroger card that wasn't mine.

I have them scan my card at the begining. Keep in mind though, it is up to your store as to whether you can stack. They are technically both manufacturer coupons. My store allows this because we have a Publix nearby that has an awesome coupon policy and they feel they need to be more competitive. HTH

At my Kroger's if you scan your card after they take your coupons they will not double or triple your coupons. The Kroger's I shop at is in Texas.

Don't go through his line. He's harmless, but it always ends up a weird experience.

Tonight at my Kroger they would not let me use ecoupons & paper coupons. Cashier & manager said if it's on my card, I couldn't use paper ones. I dd not register my Kroger card on P&G. I thought the Kroger ecoups were store & the paper/printable were mfg. I am new to couponing so this was very frustrating for me. Any tips? I feel like I spent a ton of time with small rewards. Thanks!!!

I did the same thing at my store!! Awesome deal!! I make a lot of “homemade hotpockets” for my picky eater and this stuff is wonderful for those!!

The computer will ask at the end of the order if you have any coupons (select yes). Bring them to the cashier at the self-check out and they will scan them for you. Hope this helps.

No. These are the same coupons. You can download them from the kroger site or the P&G site. You can also download load cellfire and shortcuts from their sites or the kroger site…you can then print the individual list from each site, but they will all come up on the kroger site as they are all put on your kroger card.

Griffin, GA too! :( The Kroger here is less than friendly and rude about coupons!

I've never been able to use both kroger e coupons and PG ecoupons for the same item. As far as I know it only takes off 1 ecoupon per item. If you have 2 ecoupons, then you would have to buy that item twice. And most Kroger's stack the ecoupons and print coupons…. which make for really good deals!!!!!

Hi, I would love to have a few of the huggies snug and dry and pampers wipes. My addy is kwizinkaddy@hotmail.com

Allison, which Kroger? I am thinking about heading to Carolina Forest to try out couponing… I have been sticking to Lowes Foods and BiLo but there are a few things at Kroger I was interested in…. I was going to try ECoupon with Paper… do they take them at your MB store?

Columbia city, indiana just started enforcing the rules, too. It's been on the kroger website for how many months/years and now all of a sudden they start enforcing it? I like to know what a store's policy is before I shop there, but kroger is really getting hard to deal with. I spent 3 weeks trying to talk to a manager last year to find out what that store's policy was and I knew from the first two sentences that I wasn't going get any answers. I just nodded my head and said “thanks.”

Yesterday, a manager was called over to explain the “new” policy to me and I was quick to say “your not the manager, what happened to ms. X?” She told me she was the manager for the last 3 weeks and wanted to know how she could help me. I promtly told her I was glad the old one was gone and happy to see someone who was willing to talk to the customers. The new manager kept finishing my sentences for me and said for me to come to CS the next time I was in so she could let me know what corp said after she calls them. (we'll see if she is just blowing smoke when I go back)

**All I want is the option to take the ecoupon off and use the paper one I brought to the store with me.

The cashier (a by the book cashier that I always try to get to ring me up) was trying to come up with senarios on how to get around the ecoupons, but the manager kept shooting them down. (she was right) You can't get the sale price without the card. You can't get your points (for gas or phones) without the card. You can't swipe the card last because it takes off the paper coupons to add the ecoupons. (that was a new to me, but I saw it with my own eyes) Honestly, I really don't think I will be shopping there very much until they get things settled. Two years ago they stopped trippling to .50 if the coupon said “do not double.” I stopped shopping there. A couple of months later I needed something for dinner. I ended up using a coupon and it trippled to my surprise. I then started shopping there again. So, hopefully this mess will clear itself up and I can start shopping there again. If not, let's see how fast kroger falls down the list of grocery stores like walmart has lost it's grip to target. (headline news today)

The Kro in Huntsville, AL accepts Both.
The E coupons come off when the order is totaled, then they deduct the paper ones (I use the Self Checkouts as much as possible so there's less scrutny-and I'm NOT trying to 'get away with' something, just less hassle).
:-) My advice is to try the self-checkouts if they have them with 10-15 items. I also am picky about how my groceries are bagged-at self checkouts I do it so I'm happy.

I respectfully disagree with respect to the Kroger I shop at.

We don't have Publix and the Kroger employees and managers are all very kind to me and are as excited about my coupons as I am.

Granted, there is variability among stores in a chain. I have heard terrible stories about all chains. For instance, Wal-green's. But my Walgreen stores are staffed with nice people who love it when I pay them a few cents for my order.

Good luck!

Where did you get the coupon for starkist tuna?

Yes, my cashier informed me, too. He said what triggered the software change was too many cash register receipts going into the negative. So, once again, people do themselves in.

I'm not particularly devastated, but I mean really, money has to be spent every once in a while and if people had just used the overage on something else, there wouldn't have been a red flag.
