The son of a merchant, he ran his business with a simple motto: “Be particular. Never sell anything you would not want yourself.” This credo served Kroger well over the next 136 years as the supermarket business evolved into a variety of formats aimed at satisfying the ever-changing needs of shoppers. The Kroger Co. is a publicly held corpora- tion (NYSE: KR). Still based in Cincinnati, Kroger operates nearly 2,800 stores under two dozen banners, ranking as one of the world’s largest retailers.

Thanks to the King Soopers and Safeway Neighborhood Reward Program, for every dollar you load onto your Neighborhood Rewards card, 5% will be contributed to GVA-N PTO and be used toward improving your children’s education. How does the program work? STEP ONE: Purchase a $5 gift card for King Soopers OR $10 Safeway gift card from the PTO. STEP TWO: At the check-out counter, BEFORE grocery scanning begins, ask the cashier to RELOAD (add value) to your card (using cash/check/credit card) for up to $500. STEP THREE: Use the loaded gift card to pay for your groceries. STEP FOUR: GVA-N receives 5% from King Soopers or Safeway for every dollar you load onto your card. STEP FIVE: Keep your gift card and continue to reload the card at each shopping trip. How much money can we make? It depends on how many families participate and reload the cards. The more families participating, the more money we can raise for GVA-N. Below is a sample break down of the amount that can be raised. # of GVA-N families: 50 100 150 200 $200/month on groceries: $6,000/year $12,000/year $18,000/year $24,000/year $100/week on groceries: $13,000/year $26,000/year $39,000/year $52,000/year How can this program be the most successful?

Cheyenne Post 6 REWARDS PROGRAM
Cheyenne Post 6 REWARDS PROGRAM How does it work? You request a Gift Card from the Team. Use the card to pay for purchases at KING SOOPERS. Once you use the initial amount on your card, or even before you use that initial amount, it can be reloaded for any amount up to $500. You simply give it to your cashier before your purchases are scanned so the reloading is paid as a separate transaction. Or take it to a Customer Service desk employee when you first enter the store (this may be better because sometimes it takes a few minutes for the reloaded amount to be available). You pay for the reload amount by cash, check or credit card. You can then use the Gift Card to pay for your purchases at any KING SOOPERS at any checkout line. You can reload the card again and again. What's the catch? Really.... NONE! There are no extra costs associated with this program. A $20 Gift Card is redeemable for $20 in KING SOOPERS merchandise. This is a way for KING SOOPERS to encourage shoppers to patronize their store, and also for them to support non-profit organizations. How does the Team earn money? Every time you purchase an initial card from the club, AND EVERY TIME YOU RELOAD IT, KING SOOPERS adds that amount to our club’s Neighborhood Reward account. Once the total in any given month reaches $5,000, the Team gets a check for 5% of the total. It's that simple. If we don't hit $5,000 in that month, the balance rolls forward to the next month & continues accumulating.
