Item in question:

Kroger has a reward program (Plus Card) where you get discounted prices on certain items based upon the weekly ad, but no matter what, you earn points for items you purchased ($1 on groceries = 1 point, while 1 prescription fill = 50 points). For every 100 points accumulated, you receive $0.10 off per gallon of gas! Not too shabby of a reward with gas prices being ridiculous at almost $4.00/gal! There are very few items we purchase at Kroger, but when we do, it's in massive quantities. 

Previously, the gas discounted limited you to $0.10 off per transaction, therefore, if you earned 400 points, you were entitled to $0.10 off a gas fill four times, not $0.40 off your next fill. Bummer. Now, Kroger has a new feature to their reward program which got us super excited! You can now stack the points for an even larger discount on gas, up to $1.00 off per gallon! Oh yeaaaa! Our recent cost per gallon?

What exciting news have you gotten recently?

Moped please?

Fortunately for me, I live close to a light rail station (15 minutes drive from the casa) and ride DART to work (45 minutes). Which means I only need to get gas once a week - weee!! Any who, I had to run some errands for the shop yesterday since the hubby was tied up running other errands. While pulling out of the park and ride lot, this lovely sign promptly notified me that gas is absolutely redonk.

Really??

The thing about buying supplies at a retail store versus from a wholesale/vendor is this:

100 coupons for $3.00 off your next transaction

Anybody want me to pick up some groceries for them?? =D
