YOU CAN SAVE MONEY USING KROGER CLICKLIST

Over the last few years I have noticed a movement towards retailers around the United States, introducing their versions of curbside grocery services. Curbside grocery services have been introduced as a way to save us time, and to ease the difficulty of grocery shopping. The idea may seem silly to some of us who really consider grocery shopping to be just another chore or may actually even enjoy it. For those of us who feel that way it is neither complicated due to time constraints, children in tow or difficulty due to physical limitations or age. But consider this concept as well, is it possible that grocery shopping may be costing you more because you are simply in the store surrounded by advertising? It is actually possible that these grocery curbside services may save you money if you have trouble sticking to your budget when grocery shopping.

Make a grocery list

Making a list and sticking to it is very important to saving money at the grocery store. Just because you make the list it does not mean you will buy only what is on the list this takes a commitment on your part. Sticking to a list becomes harder if you visit the grocery store and allow yourself to browse up and down the aisles because advertising is designed to lure us in. Companies pay good money to have advertising that will entice customers and it usually works on most of us. Think about the last time you went to the grocery store, did you make a list of things you needed and do you stick to that list? For me sticking to a grocery list and my budget have often been challenging and I do find the more time I spend at the store strolling up and down aisles the more I will buy. Most grocery curbside services have a small fee of $5 just for using it, but ones like Kroger ClickList also allow you to use coupons as well.

Use Coupons

Most of these curbside grocery services allow coupons and some like Kroger offer specific coupons for only customers using this service for added savings. Kroger has specific coupons designed just for ClickList customers and these are usually very easy to find by just simply searching for ClickList only coupons in the app. The more you do not buy on impulse shopping at the store and the more coupons you use the smaller your grocery costs will be. This can really save you money if you use it right, but it takes willpower and a little bit of extra work. If you think you are someone who this might benefit I challenge you to give it a try, and let me know how it saves you money. Try some of the same tricks that you would normally use to save on groceries such as Kroger coupons loaded to your shopper card and they will even accept printed coupons at most retailers which you would present when you pick up the items. Don't forget to pick up your weekly Kroger free Friday Download either which I update here on my site weekly. Make sure you check it out and add that each Friday to your coupons, you will usually have a few weeks to redeem this coupon after that.
