Kroeger Markets

Does anybody ever find Kroeger grocery stores bonused above the $5 base? The $9 grocery reimbursement is OK, and I have four local stores, but the shops, reports and driving time eats up about four hours. If I can ignore them for a while and nobody else grabs them, might they bonus them a few bucks?

There is a reason that quite a few seasoned shoppers choose not to shop for that MSC.......
However, to answer your question, yes: When the MSC gets desperate, bonuses can happen. I've had a couple of bonus of $50 and $100 from them - but it has been a couple of years...

Hard work builds character and homework is good for your soul.

Every few weeks I get an email for an offer of $30, done that day or the next. When I was shopping them more regularly, the recruiters would almost always accept the PAD I offered (I didn't ask for anything crazy unless I was driving long distances)

I do get a bonus often, but only for shops which require driving a distance. The PAD ranges from $3 to $10. There were two offered last week for $25 each half an hour away. There are three Kroger stores within ten minutes of my home but for some reason, I don't see those on the board very often.

Why ignore them and wait it out for a bonus? Start requesting at least $2 PAD for those shops. Work your way up from there. You might be surprised. I sure was.

Btw, approved PAD requests of $20 for a local store can happen.

I went ahead and requested a $4 PAD two days ago. The stores due date expired today and this morning I got a confirmation that they accepted it, extending the due date through tomorrow! I went ahead and pushed my luck by requesting another one in town for the same. We'll see...

I get bonused quite a bit if I do one about 25 miles away. I get decent bonuses. I won't accept the bonus unless it is worth my time and miles. I usually try and find other jobs over there so I can make it a route. Other then that, I do most of my shopping at our local ones anyway, so I just usually consider myself making the entire $14 as profit in my mind. I'm going to spend the $9 on groceries that week anyway.

It turns out I requested one more store with the $4 PAD and then I get a text from the scheduler asking if I'll do all three remaining in town. None of the stores are more than 5 miles from my house. I replied that I would if I could get the $4 PAD on each and she immediately agreed! Yay! The next cycle for all four stores comes up in ten days... maybe I'll ask for $6 next time.
