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 the coupon. They can be used up to 5 times in one transaction.

BOGO Deals
How Kroger BOGO Works: Buy One, Get One Free sales work differently at some Kroger stores. At some locations, you buy one at full price and the second is free. At other stores, you only need to buy ONE item and it rings up at 50% off. Check your Kroger app -- if it says "Buy One, Get One Free," you need 2. If it just shows the half-off price, you only need 1. This matters because you cannot use a coupon on an item that rings up free.
$0.74 Each: Annie Chun's Noodle Bowls (Buy 2)
BOGO Price: $3.99 | Final Price: $0.74 each ($1.48 for both)
- Buy 2 bowls (BOGO)
- 🟠 Submit the $1 Ibotta rebate on each bowl (x2)
- 🟠 Get the $0.50 Ibotta Bonus when you buy 2
The BOGO cuts the price in half, then two Ibotta rebates plus a buy-2 bonus knock it down to seventy-four cents each. Three layers of savings on one item.
$1.24 Each: Lily's Toaster Grills 2ct (Buy 2)
BOGO Price: $4.49 | Final Price: $1.24 each ($2.49 for both)
- Buy 2 packs (BOGO)
- 🟠 Submit the $1 Ibotta rebate on each pack (x2) > Half-Price Store Tip: If your Kroger does the half-price version of BOGO (instead of true buy-one-get-one-free), you can buy 1, 3, or even 5 packs and still get each one for $1.24. Check your Kroger app to see which type your store uses.
Mega Event Deals
Kroger Mega Event: To get the prices marked with an asterisk (*), you need to buy 5 or more participating Mega Event items. You can mix and match -- you do not have to buy 5 of the same thing, just any 5 or more from the participating list. If you buy fewer than 5, you will pay $1 more per item. Check the Kroger app for the full list.
FREE + $3.02 Moneymaker: Horizon Coffee Creamer (Buy 2)

- 🟢 Clip the $6 off 2 Horizon Coffee Creamer digital coupon in the Kroger app
- 🟠 Submit the $4 Ibotta rebate on each creamer (x2)
The digital coupon knocks $6 off two creamers, then Ibotta gives you $8 back. That is $14 in savings on $10.98 worth of creamer. You make $3.02 and walk away with two free coffee creamers. The best deal this week.

Tips for This Week's Kroger Run
- BeFrugal is absolutely stacked this week. Four of the best deals in this breakdown (Werther's, St Pierre, Ocean Spray, and Combat) all use BeFrugal. Combined, that is over $30 in BeFrugal rebate value.
- The Horizon Coffee Creamer moneymaker is back. Same deal as last week. If the rebate reset in your Ibotta, grab it again. $3.02 moneymaker on two creamers.
- Weekly Digital Deals stack with rebate apps. The Stacy's Pita Chips and L'Oreal deals both combine a Weekly Digital Deal coupon with an Ibotta rebate. Clip the weekly coupon in the Kroger app and then submit the Ibotta rebate after checkout for double savings.
- Mix and match your Mega Event cart. You need 5 or more participating items. This breakdown has 13 Mega Event deals to choose from. Pick any 5 or more and you unlock the sale price on all of them.
- Check if reset deals are back in your apps. The Mott's, Pringles, and General Mills Treat Bars deals are resets from previous weeks. Open your apps and check if the rebates or coupons have reappeared.
- Print the Pringles coupon before you go. The Pringles deal uses a printable manufacturer coupon from the Kellanova website. No app needed, just a printer.
- Scan every receipt on Fetch. Even if there is no specific Fetch offer listed for an item, Fetch finds hidden points on thousands of products automatically.

Pro Tips for This Week
- BeFrugal cannot be combined with Ibotta. Per BeFrugal's terms of use, you cannot submit the same item to both apps. Choose the one with the better rebate for each item.
- Weekly Digital Deals can be used 5 times. If you love the butter, water, or cheese deals, you can buy up to 5 of each at the digital deal price in one trip.
- The Annie Chun's Ibotta bonus is easy money. You get $1 back on each bowl plus a $0.50 bonus just for buying 2. That is $2.50 in Ibotta cash on a BOGO that already cuts the price in half.
- Mega Event items count toward your 5-item minimum together. The Horizon creamers, Betty Crocker, Pillsbury, Goldfish, Ragu, and everything else in the Mega section all count. You do not need 5 of the same item.
