Have you received your COVID-19 vaccine from Kroger? If so, you could win $1 million or free groceries for a year.

Starting the week of June 1, Kroger will be distributing five $1 million payouts and 50 chances to win free groceries for a year, according to a news release.

“The faster we reach community immunity, the sooner we can all get back to enjoying backyard barbecues, live music, and gathering for special occasions,” said Kroger chairman and CEO Rodney McMullen.

Kroger has distributed more than 4.6 million COVID-19 vaccines — and that number continues to grow.

Kroger will announce next week official rules and eligibility. The grocery chain did not clarify how eligible people will be entered to win.

Like what Ohio is doing with its Vax-A-Million program, this program is in collaboration with the president’s push to have at least 70 percent of U.S. adults vaccinated with their first dose by July 10.
