I bought a $300 card, and I learned a few things in the process, including: 1. you can purchase up to four cards per Kroger rewards card . 2. The kroger person I spoke with said you can purchase a card of any amount. It doesn't really have to be 300, 600, or 1200. I too think the Kroger offer is worth a look, and I posted about it here:

Anyone can purchase up to 1320 in cards at the store. If you are a CC rebate user then you can purchase with that and get an extra 1+ percent on that too!

I'd rather avoid tieing the money up in a gift card and just keep doing what I would normally be doing. You can get cash back on groceries if you use certain credit cards too, so why not do that? I'll just avoid the risk. Well when the government starts handing out free money (if you pay taxes they’re giving it back) to people, companies can’t help but try to get it in their hands.

Good idea to get the Kroger gift card. We all need food and prices are obviously going up. I shopped this morning and was floored by how much bread has gone up. Just basic bread, no gourmet fancy stuff. You sure seem to like the word “basically”.
