Teachers stocking up for the upcoming school year are getting a little extra help from Kroger.

The grocery chain is offering free bags of school supplies to metro Atlanta teachers for two days in July. At each event, a valid teacher’s ID gets educators an empty bag that they can fill with the school supplies of their choice.
