Kroger shoppers have the chance to win free groceries for a year - but there's a catch

KROGER has given shoppers a chance to win free groceries for a year.

The catch is shoppers need to be present at the grand opening of a specific Kroger location on Wednesday.

The grocery chain is opening a new massive facility in Madison, Alabama, outside Huntsville.

And to celebrate with the community, they are handing out incredible prizes.

Some lucky customers can receive a free Boost membership, Kroger's paid rewards program, and a year's worth of groceries worth up to $3,000.

On top of this, all shoppers who use their Kroger Plus card at the store's connected gas station will receive a 20-cent discount on fuel from September 13 to September 17.

“We are so excited to share this new store... with the Madison community during our Grand Opening celebration this August,” Calley White, Madison Kroger store leader, told Huntsville Fox affiliate WZDX.

Kroger invested $27 million into the Alabama facility and made sure those investments reflected the community it is located in.

The Bob Jones High School Band will perform at the grand opening and a mural was commissioned by Madison artist Ann Moeller Steverson.

The 24-foot-by-8-foot mural "resembles the most joyous and most beautiful aspects of the Madison community," Kroger said in a press release.

"Madison’s iconic downtown clock and the variety of butterflies that fly through the city and state."

White said the mural is "dedicated to finding joy in our city."

The massive 58,000-square-foot Kroger will house a Starbucks, pharmacy, sushi bar, cheese shop, and food hall inside.

More than 160 jobs were created from the construction of the store.
