100% Q: What are the odds that Kroger (KR) will not honor their giftcards?

Kroger is offering a special of 10% off giftcards of over $300.00. My cheap instinct is to buy a year's worth of groceries in giftcard form, yielding an effective IRR of 20% The only real risk I see is that if Kroger goes bankrupt, they won't honor their giftcards - just like Sharper Image did recently. What is the odds of this occuring, and what ways can I use to mitigate that risk?

A:I was just hired on for a part-time position...they're going strong.

100% Q: Kroger "California Spices" for meat. What is in it or other pork chop seasoning ideas?

At the kroger I go to they rub a california season on my meat. Does anyone know what is in it or could give me an alternative idea for a seasoning. It is a hot flavor to it. They only use spices in it. I have no idea what the combo is. Please help!

A:I work there, hang on I'll call and find out. BRB O-k, I'll have to call back later to find out, they are getting slammed right now due to the comming holiday. I don't want to steal my customers service people away right now. I will get a list of ingredients for you ASAP. Or if you would like, you can call your local store's meat dept. A clerk there might be able to help you. This might be a faster route. Happy Holidays! Sorry it took so long. The ingredients are: salt, dehydrated bell pepper, garlic, black pepper, onion, sugar, celery and parsley.
