meh, the same old **** that happens every sunday, we're going to get super slammed and run out of everything and then the customers are going to piss and moan that there's no more chocolate milk or chicken wings or bananas and eventually when the game starts everyone will go home
from the responses i am reading on here it seems like most of you are totally UNAWARE of what Kroger is planning on doing this Super Bowl Sunday! its BIG! Are you all really clueless and currently in the dark about it! its a national thing....

I thought we could only wear the shirts for 3 weeks? Ugh. I hate t-shirts with a PASSION.

OMG!!! i cant believe that all you Kroger employees are in the dark about this MAJOR HUGE Super Bowl Sunday Kickoff Event! We are lowering the prices on over 4000 items throughout the entire store company wide! And all the employees are to wear these blue tee shirts w/ logos like WE CARE... all over them for the next 3 months instead of the regular shirts. plus on the weekend we can wear blue jeans. and if any of our competitors lowers the price on an item, we are going to match it for the next 12 weeks! something like that.... but yea its HUGEMONGOUS!

Must not be too big because otherwise everyone else would have heard about it by now.

First I've heard of this. Nothing has been said/posted where I'm at.
At my store everyone wears hoodies and jackets anyway. Store is too cheap for heat. Maybe they could turn it on for the customers because they complain constantly too.
I am very excited that they are ending that double coupon nonsense, though. It's always caused us all kinds of problems with extreme couponers.
The store I'm at stopped doubling/tripling coupons almost a year ago. We still have extreme couponers that drive us, and the customers waiting in line, nuts, though. Some of them really freak out too when just one out of like thirty coupons or more isn't deemed valid for what they bought and will either demand to see a manager or will dig for that one item out of a cart full of groceries so that it can be taken off. You're still going to have to deal with certain customers that bring a binder full of coupons to the store and then hit the roof when one of their many, many and I do mean many, coupons isn't accepted.
We have a couple of professional extreme coupners; they arrive almost every week end, usually on Sundays, during our peak rush hours. They'll usually seek out a young inexperienced cashier that they can tag-team on and completely intimidate into getting their way with.
It was only supposed to be for the Cincinnati divisions. That is what our manager said at the meeting. 908 has been price matching and saying yes to customers no matter what for about 8-9 months now. I am excited about jeans and T-shirts, though.
