Your Step-by-Step Breakdown
Weekly Digital Deals
What are Weekly Digital Deals? These are special coupons in the Kroger app or website that give you a sale price when you clip them. They can be used up to five times in one transaction. These are Kroger STORE coupons, meaning you can combine them with manufacturer coupons and rebates for even more savings. These are the best deals of the week.
Important: Not all digital coupons are store coupons. If a digital coupon is a manufacturer coupon, you cannot stack another manufacturer coupon with it.
$0.99: Finish Ultimate Quantum Dish Pods 11ct
- 🟢 Clip the Weekly Digital Coupon in the Kroger app to get the $3.99 sale price (this is a store coupon)
- 🏷️ Print the $3 manufacturer coupon from coupons.com
- Hand the printed coupon to the cashier at checkout

New to Kroger Couponing?
- Download the Kroger app and create a Kroger Plus account. Digital coupons, Mega Event prices, and weekly digital deals all require a Kroger Plus card. Clip your coupons before you shop.
- Learn the difference between store and manufacturer coupons. Store coupons (like weekly digital deals) can stack with manufacturer coupons. Manufacturer coupons cannot stack with other manufacturer coupons. This matters when combining printable coupons with digital ones.
- Download Ibotta and activate offers before you shop. Ibotta is the MVP of Kroger couponing. Search for items, add the offers, and scan your receipt after checkout. Always check for bonus stacks.
- Download Fetch Rewards and scan every receipt. Fetch gives you points on thousands of products -- no offer activation needed. Points convert to gift cards.
- Download Shopkick and earn kicks for scanning barcodes in-store and uploading receipts. Kicks convert to gift cards. The Nutella and Halo Top moneymakers both rely on Shopkick.
- Understand the Mega Event. You need to buy 5 or more participating items in one transaction to unlock Mega Event prices. Mix and match from the Mega Event section. Check our How to Use the Kroger App guide for a full breakdown.
Tips for This Week's Kroger Run
- Buy 5+ Mega Event items in one transaction. You will NOT get the Mega Event prices unless you hit the 5-item threshold. Use the no-coupon steals (croutons, raisins, pasta sauce, Craisins) as filler if you need more items.
- Print your coupons before you leave. The Finish dish pods and Pringles deals both use printable coupons. Print them at home or at the library before your shopping trip.
- Activate Ibotta and Shopkick offers before checkout. Both apps require you to activate or add offers before purchasing. If you forget, you might miss the rebate.
- Scan your receipt on Fetch every time. Even if there is no specific Fetch offer for these items, Fetch finds hidden points on thousands of products automatically.
- Stack the moneymakers with your filler items. The Nutella, Halo Top, and Horizon Creamer moneymakers actually pay you to buy them. Use that profit to offset the cost of your filler items.
- Check your Ibotta for bonus offers. Bonuses like "spend $X get $Y back" or "submit X rebates get $5 back" can add serious value to a stacked Kroger run.

Pro Tips for This Week
- Kroger's Mega Event is still running. If you have not taken advantage yet, this is a great week to start. The moneymakers alone make it worth a trip.
- Nutella Ice Cream keeps showing up. This is the second week in a row with a Nutella Ice Cream deal at Kroger. If you missed last week's $0.13 deal, this week's moneymaker is even better.
- Ibotta rebates add up fast. This breakdown alone has 8 different Ibotta rebates. If you are close to a bonus threshold, one Kroger trip could push you over.
- Printable coupons are underrated. A lot of couponers skip printable coupons, but the Finish dish pods deal goes from $3.99 to $0.99 because of a simple printed coupon. Do not sleep on coupons.com and Kellanova coupons.
