Kroger will not issue a rain check if an item is on sale with a digital coupon loaded to my card, and the coupon expires before I plan to return to the store. Instead, the customer service desk clerk just informs me that the coupon won’t expire until the end of the week, so I can still come back and buy the product when it’s back in stock before then. It really frosts me, and I just look at the clerk and state emphatically. “I travel 30 miles round trip. I’m not coming back to town this week, and certainly not driving 30 miles for one item.”
