I never write a check for cash back over the amount of the purchase.

I think the store could have any policy they choose about writing a check for over the amount of purchase. It is a courtesy extended to the customer. They are not a bank.

You got what you wanted on sale. I don't see the problem.

The limit on "cash back" checking is $25. The bigger story here is that Kroger won't accept more than $300/month from a customer who writes checks (You can buy $300 in groceries and that's IT! $275 if you get a $25 overpay).

Cash/credit customers don't have this purchase restriction.

I don't patronage Kroger's these days anyway. They have a "discount" card that gives buyers the same prices they used to get (now they just gouge "non-member" customers) and only have "self-checkout" lines (again, no discount for making me do the work that someone was paid for). There is still a cashier who must finalize the purchase.

I prefer to go to a business that doesn't gouge some customers and get them to do the employees' job for no cost savings.
