Prices based on the Metro Atlanta sales circular. Our sales week runs from Sunday-Saturday. To find the ad for your store click here. Manufacturer's coupons .50 and under will double. You can purchase one item that is on sale BOGO for half price. Items that are priced 10/$10 can be purchased for $1 each/pound.
I feel like I am repeating myself this week. Many of this week's sale items are also on sale at Publix or have been on sale recently.
The Best of the Loss Leaders:
Tangerines 3 pound bag $1.50 WOW!
Gala, Red Delicious, or Rome Apples 3 pound bag $2.99
Kroger Sliced Bacon BOGO - no price given

These items would be a good deal even without coupons, but the coupons make the prices even better.
Kroger Frozen Vegetables: $1.00
.65/1 after .35/1 (Kroger Best Customer Savings - Printed at Register) This coupon will not double because it is a store coupon, not a manufacturer's coupon.

Holiday Meats:
Unfortunately, the meat prices did not drop this week. I would advise doing some comparison shopping before you buy. I happened to see that Aldi has the spiral sliced ham advertised for $1.49/lb as compared to $1.99/lb at Kroger.
Private Selection Frozen Turkey 14 lbs+ .79/lb
Honeysuckle Frozen Turkey 14 lbs+ .99/lb
Butterball Frozen Turkey 14 lbs+ $1.09/lb
Private Selection Bone-In Turkey Breasts $1.79
Smithfield Shank Portion Ham $1.49/lb
Smithfield Butt Portion Ham $1.59/lb
Kroger Spiral Sliced Ham $1.99/lb
Shortcuts has a coupon for $3.00 off a Private Selection Turkey Roast; however, this does not appear to be on sale this week.
Catalina Update:
Fleischmann's Yeast strips are on sale for $1.49 per package through the end of the year. This sale means that each package will profit you .41 after the coupon and catalina! You can find the details of the catalina in my original post here.
Be sure to check back early next week for new Kroger ecoupon deals! Have a great day!

Kroger Loss Leaders and Highlights Week of October 5
Prices and scenarios are based on the Metro Atlanta sales circular. Manufacturer coupons with a face value of .50 or less double. Our sales week runs from Sunday-Saturday. To find the ad for your store click here.
I try to only focus on the best deals each week. For a complete list of sales with coupon matchups from the Sunday coupon inserts visit Coupon Mom's website next week.
The Best of the Loss Leaders Without Coupons:
Milk - $3.19/gallon (Cheaper than Publix. Will Aldi still have milk at $2.49?)
Eggs - $1.33/dozen (More expensive than Publix.)
Gala Apples $1/lb - Bags of apples may be cheaper per pound so be sure to look if you plan to buy any kind of quantity
Bartlett Pears $1/lb
Tangerines 3 pound bag $2.50 - Typically anything less than $1/lb for tangerines is a very good deal.
Gwaltney Brown Sugar Bacon BOGO - no price listed
Think this should make it about $2 for a 1 lb package
Carolina Pride Full Line Sale BOGO - no prices listed
Unfortunately, there are no coupons currently to match up with these this time. However, if you use these now is the time to buy.
Tyson Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts BOGO - no price listed
If I recall correctly their normal price is somewhere between $4.50 and $5.00/lb. However, the BOGO price is definitely higher than the normal $1.99/lb sale price.
Note: The BOGO price may be indicative of a increase in the sale price in the future. Kroger tends to put meat on sale BOGO instead of their typical $1.99/lb sale price before they increase the sale price. Probably at a minimum we will see the $1.99/lb sale price less often.
The Best of the Sales with Coupons:
Grands Biscuts $1/1
See my scenarios here.
.50/2 Printable coupon here AND here.
Current .30/2 Cellfire coupon expires Monday. Be sure check if there is a new one available if you go later in the week.

Kroger Scenario Matchups for $3/15 Sale
With so many different coupons from so many different sources this is a very complex deal, but there are some great deals to be had including a few profitable items. Instead of writing a specific scenario I have focused on some of the best deals with the coupon matchups. With the exeption of the Pop Secret I have done all of the deals I have listed and can verify that they work.
You can pick any combination of 15 participating items including several that I don't have listed. You can do up to 3 deals (45 items) in one transaction. If you need more items divide your order into multiple transactions. To maximize your savings be sure that you have your Cellfire and Shortcuts coupons loaded to your Kroger card. Remember that each Kroger card can only use each e-coupon once, but you can use one tradional coupon for each product that you have.
You can only do one catalina offer for each product per transaction. Example one Nature Valley and one Fruit Rollups offer works, but two Nature Valley catalina offers (10 boxes) will not produce two catalina coupons and must be done in two transactions. For more information about the current Kroger Catalina Offers visit the Fourm at Hot Coupon World.
In the event you end up with several catalinas you should be able to use the catalina coupons at any store that accepts manufaturer coupons; however, I know some people have had difficulties with the cashiers accepting them. They are manufacturer's coupons and say this at the top of the coupon. In any event, Publix should take as a competitor's coupon, but encourage them to scan as a manufacturer's coupon.
Chart Notes:
Please note tha that there is only one Old El Paso Product Cellfire Coupon, but I was showing the option of two different products.
F/D = Face Value or Double Face Value.

Kroger Scenario for Friday, September 5
There were only a few items that I had originally planned to get this week at Kroger; however, the perfect combination of hidden deals, a $/$ coupon that is about to expire, and 2 great unadvertised Catalina offers turned even this bad sale week into a potential good deal.
Due to the South Beach Diet Catalina offer expiring, Friday is the only day this scenario is possible.
If you click on the chart below you can see my plans.
I allowed for some extra padding because I am unclear if the e-coupons will be deducted before or after the $10/$50 coupon (It does come off before physical coupons, just unsure about the Cellfire, and Shortcuts Coupons). I also allowed for a slight difference in price (especially the pizza) or if they are out of an item.
I will have a few Kiwi coupons with me as additional filler if I need them. I don't want to use them tomorrow unless if I have to because I sill have some time to use them before they expire and may need them as filler items in the future. I don't know if Cellfire will continue with $/$ coupons, but I still have a few left from LAST year's Entertainment Book (Rumor is Kroger will not be participating this year).
I my plans excluded any coupons that explicitly said Free on them, but there are several inexpensive items that can be routinely gotten for free or very cheap. The key is the higher you can build your total up with free items then the more of the $10 can be put towards the items that you need that you don't have a coupon for.
I opted to save my additional Powerade coupons to roll in a future deal instead of taking the additional savings off of my total.
According to my calculations I will save 67.5% before the Catalinas and Caregivers Rebate. If I take those into consideration (which I shouldn't until I spend it/get the check in the mail) I will have saved 84%.
I'll report back with my actual deal later.
