Fru-Gal Column September 9

Because of the Labor Day holiday there were no coupons in last Sunday’s paper. Take the time you would spend cutting coupons by saving other ways. Many retail stores are offering coupons online, digital coupons and mobile coupons. Remember to make it a double bonus you can use paper coupons along with store coupons. Let’s start saving now.

KROGER SAVINGS:
Create a account with your Kroger Plus Card. Click on My Coupons and start loading coupons to your card. Coupons are automatically redeemed when you use your savings card at checkout. Kroger also offers printable coupons on their website.

Kroger and Shell have teamed up to fill your tank for less. Participating Shell stations will allow you to type in your KrogerPlus card account to receive your gas point rewards.
MEIJERS SAVINGS:
Register your cell phone number online to receive text messages alerting you to great offers, promotions, sales and events. Meijer is also using this program to send Mperk coupons to targeted customers. To redeem Mperks offers at your store checkout, simply press the Mperks button and enter your cell phone number. https://www2.meijer.com/mperks/Welcome.aspx
Meijer also has a program called Meijer’s Mealbox. These are store coupons that you can print online. You can use a manufacturer coupon with a Meijer’s Mealbox coupon.
TARGET SAVINGS:
· Receive exclusive offers once a month via text message on your web-enabled phone. Just bring up the coupon on your mobile phone then the cashier will scan coupon right from your phone.
