Groceries

Kroger is the largest dedicated U.S. supermarket operator, running about 2,700 stores under Kroger and a stack of regional banners (Ralphs, Fred Meyer, Smith's, King Soopers, Harris Teeter, Fry's, and others). All code as groceries at the register and most do online shopping via the Kroger app/site. Any standard supermarket-bonus card earns here. Kroger's own fuel-points program layers on top of card cashback.
