A sample of the markdowns Penny Meals found, checked October 22, 2026. Prices change during the week and differ by store. The app shows the current list for your own stores.

How Kroger markdowns work

Kroger and its regional stores (Ralphs, Fry’s, King Soopers, Mariano’s, Harris Teeter, Smith’s, QFC, and others) run a weekly ad that usually starts on Wednesday. Many sale prices need a free loyalty card, and digital coupons stack on top.

The real clearance is the yellow Manager’s Special sticker on meat, bakery, and deli items close to their date. Those are set in the store each morning and are not in the ad.

Shop early in the day for Manager’s Specials, and load digital coupons before you go, since they only apply to the card that clipped them.

How Penny Meals finds them

Penny Meals reads sale and regular prices from Kroger’s own product data for the store nearest you, then adds manufacturer coupons that apply. Open the app, enter your ZIP, and the nearest Kroger shows up next to the other stores around you, so you can see where each item is cheapest this week.
