Kroger Kicks Off Gift Card Promotion on Black Friday

CINCINNATI — Kroger stores will begin a holiday gift card offer on Black Friday worth $10 off for every $100 customers purchase in participating gift cards for a two-week period.

Shoppers will receive $10 off their purchase automatically by using their loyalty card at checkout.

Beginning Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, through Sunday, December 13, 2009, this special offer will be available in all Kroger stores and other stores the company operates under the following names: City Market, Dillons, Jay C, Food 4 Less, Fred Meyer, Fry's, King Soopers, QFC, Ralphs and Smith's.

Participating retailers are: Applebee's, Bass Pro Shops, Bath & Body Works, Best Buy, iTunes, Sears and Spa Finder.

Customers can mix and match gift cards from participating retailers to reach the $100 amount and then receive $10 off their total purchase. The maximum savings per household on the special gift card sale is $50.

Gift cards for Kroger stores are not included. Food 4 Less customers do not need a loyalty card to take advantage of this program, Kroger announced in a press statement last week.
