I'm always afraid to over do it. They were $6.24 there. I probably won't try again because I think a lot of it depends on the cashier. I don't use these razors, but it will make a great donation!Lindanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7190015557376477173.post-81637452307858999492010-02-03T18:52:10.419-05:002010-02-03T18:52:10.419-05:00Uh, the bic razors are on sale for 5.79 at our sto...Uh, the bic razors are on sale for 5.79 at our store in cincinnati.amynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7190015557376477173.post-14063798007382355282010-02-03T15:22:24.660-05:002010-02-03T15:22:24.660-05:00Great comment, Jeremy!

All we need to do now is sit you down with Kroger management for a little negotiation...Bargains to Bountyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09151207861710376233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7190015557376477173.post-36591207583635779552010-02-03T15:11:44.067-05:002010-02-03T15:11:44.067-05:00The problem is with the word Free...
Managers see...The problem is with the word Free...<br /><br />Managers seem to have problems with the word free. They really don't like thinking that their stores is giving away product for nothing. The deal for Kroger is on two items. The coupon from Bic is on two items. This coupon applies to this deal.<br /><br />Lets replace the word free with the actual amounts.<br /><br />Krogers deal is actually B1 get $7.99 off on the second razor set. Essentially, 2 for $7.99. The Bic Coupon is B1 get $6.99 off the second razor set. Essentially, 2 for $6.99 (if the store is charging $6.99 a blister pack).<br /><br />The problem is that stores charge different amounts of money and Bic wants to pay for only what is getting charged to the customer. This is why Walgreens jacked the price of the $5.99 razors to $6.99 last week. Their marketing people knew the VALUE of the coupon.<br /><br />It appears that Kroger and their store managers don't understand that the coupon has VALUE. $6.99 to be exact. Therefore, lets do the math without the word free...<br /><br />One at $7.99<br />Second at $7.99 minus Kroger special of $7.99<br />2 items for $7.99<br /><br />Bic Coupon is on two items. We purchased two items. Unfortunately the Bic coupon's max VALUE is $6.99. Therefore, we should get $6.99 off the two items which would look like this...<br /><br />One at $7.99 minus Bic Coupon of $6.99.<br />Second at $7.99 minus Kroger special of $7.99<br /><br />Final Math<br />Customer pays $1.00 plus tax on $7.99<br />Kroger receives $7.99 ($1.00 from us and $6.99 from Bic) plus tax on $7.99.<br /><br />These stores managers from Kroger (and other stores that don't understand the math) need to understand that All Coupons have value (Free means up to a certain max VALUE) that is not subtracting from their revenue.Jeremyhttp://www.yahoo.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7190015557376477173.post-86844933277068921172010-02-02T22:43:30.017-05:002010-02-02T22:43:30.017-05:00My husband is a store manager for Kroger and I ask...My husband is a store manager for Kroger and I asked him if this was legitimate and he said no.<br />You have to actually buy one to use the coupon.
