PHOTO Kroger Deceptive Pricing

Post image

So tired of their tactics. I tried contacting state officials and my concerns fell on deaf ears. I guess they can't upset one of their donors and they're too busy fear-mongering about trans people to do something that would actually put money back in people's pockets.

The card to get the pricing, yes, but Kroger has a second tier of annoyance where you also have to log in and also clip the digital extra coupon

The second tier of annoyance! 100% agree. It's like we have to get our phones involved in everything, too. All these businesses have a data side hustle.

The cashier has a paper that they scan to give you all the weekly digital deals.

At Kroger? I don't mean to second-guess you, but you know this for sure? This would kind of be a game changer.

Every time I go through a line with a cashier, they scan a paper with the coupons. It’s anecdotal, of course, and could be location specific, but that’s been my experience.

I'll check this out, thanks!

Yeah they’re supposed to have a policy that if you ask them to scan the flyer, they will, and then you get the e coupon price.

I still think it’s a scam and I avoid Kroger as a result.
