    I've heard of Kroger, but never seen one. We don't have them here in Northern New England.

    I used to sell those. Made a commission on minutes. Not a lot, but it was a little check every month. Until the frequency got reallocated, but by then there weren't all that many users left. I still have a few in a box in the garage. Also by then AT&T had all their own stores and didn't need me any more. LOL.
