Kroger Reusable Bag Design Contest (Giveaway)

tricia — Wed, 28 Apr 2010 02:00:23 +0000

2009 Winner from Columbus, Ohio

You may remember back to last year when I told you about the 2009 Kroger Reusable Bag Contest. Well, they are doing it again this year. I was excited that at a recent Kroger event I attended I got one of the 2009 Grand Prize Winning Bags. Isn’t it cute? Don’t you wish you were the one that designed it? I do.

I liked the one I did last year but I used the OAMM logo so I couldn’t officially enter it in the contest. I designed one this year and didn’t use the logo. (Too bad, I can’t find my design so you can link to it. You can imagine that it was mind blowing though, right?)

You can also design your own for the chance for your bag to be chosen for the contest. There are great prizes up for grab:

The top 10 designs will be chosen by an expert panel and the grand prize winner will receive $1,000 and will have their bag design sold in stores. Four finalists will receive $250 Kroger gift cards and five runners-up will receive $100 Kroger gift cards. Every Shopper’s Card holder who submits a design will receive a credit for a free reusable shopping bag.

Who couldn’t use a $250 or $1,000 gift card to Kroger? If you have a lot of friends who can vote you are in business! You will get a coupon for a free reusable bag at Kroger just for entering. And even if you don’t care about the contest, you can at least purchase your own bag design through Cafe Press this year. How cool is that?

(This contest is CLOSED. The winner was Trisha Lynn #7)

Kroger provided me with a gift card so that I could purchase my reusable bag and I have a $25 gift card for Cafe Press so that you could purchase yours as well. Here is how you can enter to win:

1. Leave me a link to the Kroger bag that you designed.

Additional ways to enter:

2. Tweet or Facebook this contest – use @onceamonthmom & @krogerdeals and a link to this post. And don’t forget to leave a comment below stating you have done so.

3. Subscribe to the Once A Month Mom blog via RSS or email. Let me know that you have done so. Of course, if you are already subscriber make sure you leave that too.

This giveaway ends Saturday, May 1st at midnight (EST). Winner will be chosen by random using random.org.

Meijer & Kroger Sales – On Your Own!

tricia — Sun, 29 Nov 2009 12:00:08 +0000

I was going to do one last week of the grocery sales breakdowns before taking the rest of December off (you know, because I am about to have a baby). However, as I went to do the sale breakdowns for the weekend I realized that I would have to do a breakdown for November and December but the December menu doesn’t come out for a few more days. SO – I decided to start my “leave of absence” from the grocery store sales breakdowns starting now.

Sorry. There is just too much happening. I will return to doing these weekly breakdowns in January when things have settled down a bit around here.

In the meantime, for more great sales items in the Cincinnati/Dayton for Meijer please visit Mommy Snacks or if you are in the Columbus area check out Marcy at Stretching a Buck. In the Indianapolis area check out Briana at Bargain Briana. In the Metro Detroit area visit Jolyn at Macomb Money $avers.
