I just wanted to give everyone a heads up that I will be attending the grand opening of the Sandusky (my home town!!) Kroger Marketplace store at 226 E. Perkins Ave. on Wednesday, April 6 starting at 8 am. If you are nearby (or feel like traveling!), I would love for you to stop by for a meet and greet! I will be there bright and early along with the awesome Kroger Krazy team (Kendra and Jacqueline). It’s going to be so much fun and I can’t wait to see some of you there!
If you’ve ever been to a Kroger grand opening, you know it’s all kinds of awesome! Here’s what you can expect.
Wednesday, April 6
8 a.m. | The first 300 customers through the door at 8 a.m. on Wednesday, April 6 will receive a reusable shopping bag and Kroger gift card (ranging in value from $5 – $100).
9 a.m. | Ribbon cutting with store associates and local dignitaries.
Drawings throughout the store for a chance to win one of 15, $100 Kroger gift cards.
Product sampling throughout the store.
4-6 p.m. | A caricature artist, face painter and balloon at the store to entertain families.
Customers who visit the store on grand opening day are encouraged to share a message or photo about the store on Twitter using the #SanduskyKroger to be entered to win a $100 Kroger gift card.
Saturday, April 9
9 a.m. | The first 300 customers receive a mesh bag filled with Kroger kitchen gadgets.
Saturday, April 23
Community Giving Day: 10 percent of sales (excluding gift cards, pharmacy, fuel, beer/wine/liquor) will go to Sandusky City Schools and Perkins Local Schools.
If you ARE in fact in the Sandusky area, make sure you stop by the current store just down the street (open through Tuesday evening) for some amazing deals as they will be needing to sell as much as they can before it closes.
I didn’t get there until just before noon, so I missed you. Going back tonight to get my weekly groceries. I know it will take me quite a bit longer to navigate the new store but I Love it! Printing my coupons and looking through the Mega Event sales!
That store looks awesome! My Kroger is Kroger krappy. We have the smallest nastiest store. Wish I could come but at least 2+hrs away.Have fun!
I believe I walked right pass you this morning at the Sandusky store. I work for the company who set it up and I told the girl walking with me, OMG, that’s the girl from Kroger Krazy!
Wendy, HAHA!! That was definitely me! I was in there all morning. Say hello next time!! 🙂
Darn it! I was hoping that it was closer to West Virginia-like somewhere around Columbus. It’s almost 5 hrs from me. I would love to have met you.
Amy, start driving now!! 🙂
