Free Friday download gone again?
Permalink   


Customers are starting to wonder what's going on, there were a couple of weeks over the holidays where there was no Friday freebie, we assumed it was because of the holidays and all that. But there's none this week either, what's the deal? Recall? Cheapening up even more before the fiscal year ends? Something else?

I don't use the free Friday download but as far as I know our store is still using it. I hear about every week.

Our current sales plan says no free Friday download.

But, there is a 2 day digital coupon on Tyson chicken as the replacement.

I didn't hear any complaints and I'm a bit shocked at this.  They spoiled the customer with freebies for so long and this is, like someone else said, not the first time they skipped it.  But they're right, a couple good Fri/Sat deals (we also have $5 24 pack cokes, which I think is better than any freebie they might throw out there)

What's this, like the 4th time in the last two months there's been no Free Friday?

You know what I find interesting is that next week's Free Friday is the RX protein bar that was recalled (printed on everyone's receipts).

 I'll take a pass on this one LOL.  Well maybe...depends what the recall was for.

Well apparently the manufacturer of the bars got a shipment of ingredients that was contaminated with peanuts. Normally, their bars are advertised as having no peanuts in the ingredients list. So they're being recalled to try and prevent people who have peanut allergies from eating them.

 This is a classic case of lazy associates at best. They have all this stuff just sitting in the back room but they dont do their job at all. These people need to start appreciating us and VALUE US a hell of a lot more. Its small promotions like free Friday that keep us coming back to shop and spend so we help contribute to their tiny paychecks.

 you're a customer not a worker, right?  Because if you worked at kroger you would know that we can't always control what we do/don't get.  Free Friday's are a PITA when the product doesn't show up

 Oh, that's just the V.U.T. ("Value Us Troll").   Ignore him/her.   I suspect it's actually a former Kroger worker who was fired for poor job performance, and now has plenty of time on their hands to pose as a snotty, hateful customer and annoy employees here who are actually trying to use this discussion forum for productive reasons.
