King Soopers Cart Buster Savings Event – good deals or not?

A big “Cart Buster Savings Event” at King Soopers – but like Andrea said, it’s just some smart marketing to make you think there are deals when there aren’t.  I’m not seeing much of anything that’s a stock up price this week at King Soopers, unfortunately.

Do check out the King Soopers e-coupon site, though, as there are quite a few of those e-coupons that match up to items on sale this week.
