Tax on coupons?


I found a great deal at Kroger! If you buy 3 boxes of Kellogg's cereal, you get a free gallon of milk. The deal is limited to two per visit. I had a lot of Kellogg's cereal coupons, so I estimated my total would be around $12.00 for 6 boxes of cereal and 2 gallons of milk. Not bad.
I had never shopped at Kroger before, so I went there and got my store card. Shopped for my items and was pleased.... Until the cashier rang up the items. Did you know that Kroger charges a tax on coupons? I have never heard of this. I was very pleased with my total of $11.75, so in the grand scheme of things the .21 that I had to pay was nothing to squabble over. But still....Tax on coupons???
