FREE cream cheese--maybe?

This week the mega sale and a Kraft promotion have collided at Kroger to make for 5 blocks of FREE cream cheese--maybe. Here's the scoop.

Through August 15, if you buy 5 select Kraft products, you will get $5 off your next shopping trip. You're limited to one per transaction, I believe. This week the mega sale makes Philadelphia cream cheese only $.99; buy 5, and you should get a $5 catalina, making them all FREE. Unfortunately, it's not working quite that easily.

Today at Kroger I put items into two transactions to qualify for two of these Kraft rewards and the 10 item mega sale. The first group with five blocks of cheddar cheese worked no problem. The second transaction with five cream cheese gave me the mega savings but not the catalina for $5. Apparently Coupon Katie had the same experience. Thankfully Customer Service gave each of us $5 for the confusion; however, with three kids in the cart, I would have rather skipped the hassle.

Several customers across the Southeast have been complaining of it not printing in the comment section of Southern Savers. One solution could be to buy 4 cream cheese and 1 block cheese; maybe then it would print. This worked for one customer. So if you're heading to Kroger this week, that would be my suggestion. If not, head to Customer Service.

For coupons on cream cheese, you may be able to go here for $1/1. I already printed and used mine two weeks ago. Coupon Katie found blinkies for $1/2 on Kraft block cheese in her store. For more printables on sour cream and select cheese, go here. Happy saving!
