What I hate about Kroger (and always have) is that you have to have their stupid card in order to get the better prices. Just shows that the prices are marked up to begin with... I have the same problem with Bed Bath & Beyond and their dumb coupons!!! 4951

Don't waste your time. It's dumb.
 
I only went there because DD is on a serious orange kick right now. She likes the little oranges. HEB hasn't had them so I went to Kroger to get them. Figured I didn't need a ton of stuff so I did the rest of my shopping while I was there. I got stuff for 3 meals, plus some of our regular things (yogurts for the wee one, flour, sugar, strawberries for my dad's birthday pie, dog food, crap like that. )
 
$130!?!? And that was with a Kroger Card! What a bunch of bull corn!
 
And...I forgot to get DH'S shampoo and body wash, plus DD'S milk. So I have to go back to HEB tomorrow anyway. Gah!! 4951

The new one is just so big and spread out! if you forget something you have to walk a dang mile to go get it! I know where everything is in the one on Northpark much easier! 4951

@BooBear:
 
I did! However, the subhuman in front of me with 3 kids, 2 at one point as 1 went missing, took forever. Her heathens were hanging off the cart and she forgot to buy them the movie they wanted. So she required 2 transactions.
 
Also...what's with the seats in the carts not sitting flat?? They only go down so far and my poor kid was so uncomfortable sitting at an angle, only being supported by the metal cart rods between her legs.
 
I'm officially boycotting Kroger. *except to get those dang little oranges. BUT THAT'S ALL I'M BUYING FROM THEM!! 4951

Husband and I have notice the increase of food prices over the last couple months. Shizzle is about to hit the fan folks. Be prepared because the prices will be going up even further. I think we spend a hundred bucks every time we go into a grocery store. We don't use the Mammoth Kroger. It's overwhelming and a cluster to get in and out of. We'll stick to our WLH/Northpark haunt. I do like HEB though! 4951

I'm a faithful HEB fan. But not the Atascocita one. I don't like the set up of that one. Groceries have gone up. For me, DH, and an 18 month old...we spend about $150 a week. The wee one is still not eating everything we do...so that adds up. Hopefully as she grows older she'll eat what we eat more and I won't have to buy all this speciality stuff for her. 4951

@taramay: We have noticed that the new Kroger is more expensive than the others. It's so stupid how 3 stores within a 10mile(approx) radius of each other can each have the same items at different prices.Walmart is the same way.

Since my DH does most of the shopping & he's always looking for deal he's  been to the new one twice & I've never been. He doesn't like shopping at Kroger anyway.  It's so big the second time he went he hopped on one of the scooters. Him & another guy has races down the aisles.  (that is him) . Any competition is good competition!I would still like to check it out. 4951

I don't like the new mega Kroger; it's a zoo.  I like HEB for produce, meats, seafood and frozen food, but the store is so small that they don't have a good variety of general grocery stuff.  I go to the WLP/Northpark Kroger to get those items.  I generally hate Randall's. 4951

This is why I suffer through Walmart.... Kroger is too expensive. But groceries in general have gotten really expensive.
 
Those little oranges are the bomb, though Emoticon My 3 yr old would eat 4-5 at a time if I let her. 4951

If you have ever tried to grocery shop in another country, or even many states, you would thank your lucky stars for the amazing supermarkets here.  I love to grocery shop, and shop all the supermarkets here.  Sometimes I will drive a good distance to Whole Foods, Hubbel and Hudsons, Central Market, or some other awesome place.  No complaints from me, I consider it a privalege. 4951
