Automated Kroger Stock and Price Alerts

Every morning, WebRun opens Kroger, checks your saved reorder list for stock and price changes, logs a dated row per item to a Google Sheet in Drive, and posts your office team a Slack alert on anything needing a substitution before the next pickup slot.

In short

How do I track stock and price changes on a recurring Kroger order?

WebRun checks your saved Kroger reorder list every morning for stock and price changes, logs a dated status per item to a Drive tracker, and posts your office team a Slack alert on anything needing a substitution. This keeps recurring office or kitchen restocking from stalling on a surprise out-of-stock item.

  • Substitutions get caught before the pickup slot instead of at checkout
  • Office team opens Slack to a ready substitution list every morning
  • Price jumps over 10 percent are flagged instead of missed

Questions, answered

Will it place the Kroger order for me?

No. WebRun checks stock and price and flags what needs attention. Placing or changing the pickup order is left for your team to do in Kroger directly.

How does it decide an item needs attention?

It flags anything showing as out of stock, on backorder, or priced more than 10 percent above the last logged check, so small normal price moves do not trigger noise.

Can I change what is on the reorder list?

Yes. WebRun reads whatever list is saved in Kroger, so updating the list there updates what gets checked automatically.

Put this on autopilot.
