Kroger Extends Gas Discounts
05/22/2008 16:14:15
CINCINNATI, Ohio (AP) -- The nation's largest traditional grocery chain says it has expanded its gas discount program across its regions.
Most of the regional fuel discount programs in the Kroger Co.'s chain give regular shoppers 10 cents off per gallon at company gas stations for every $100 they spend in a Kroger store. But the programs weren't carried over between regions, so a vacationing shopper at a Kroger-owned Ralphs store in California didn't previously get the spending credit for the discount back home in Cincinnati.
Kroger said customers have been asking that the program be made chainwide.
Shoppers using Kroger's branded credit card can earn 15-cents-per-gallon discounts.
The expanded program doesn't include a handful of markets, such as in Columbus, Ohio, and Michigan, that offer extra discounts for competitive reasons.
