September is a month of many expenses. We usually say “the January slope”, but always, if you hurry me, it is much more intense. Whether or not you buy the iPhone 16, there are inevitable expenses in September. If you come back from vacation, we will start “operation pantry”: fill our cupboards and refrigerator with food. Add to this the school fees if you have children at home.
From Applesfera we want bring our little grain of sand. And saving based on the supermarket is the key. Many times we go to the same one for convenience, but maybe in another that we also have near home there is a 3×2 offer, a second unit and even a cheaper normal price.
Tips for saving in the shopping cart
The first tip we can give you to save money is to plan at most 15 days in advance. Try to get as much out of the freezer as possible to control the amount of food at home. In this way, we will avoid food expiration and also a greater consumption of electricity by having a completely full refrigerator.
Now, and with inflation contained but very high if we look back one or two years, saving directly at the time of purchase is essential. For this, we have to be very attentive to promotions different supermarkets. And depending on where you live, you can have a large number of chains around you. I myself have, within a five-minute walk, a Mercadona, Día, Alcampo, Eroski, Bonarea, Hipercor and, about a ten-minute walk, a Carrefour.
Going from store to store to check prices from supermarket to supermarket is something very few of us dounless we are looking for something specific and at a very high price. To do this, I found an application that groups the main supermarkets in USA and we can consult the prices of a large part of their catalog.
With this application I compare the prices of different supermarkets
The application is called “SoySuper” and also has a web version. It is a very basic application. It does not have a very innovative interface, but many times we want something more direct and useful. A key step in the application is to enter the postal code to recommend us supermarkets that we have nearby. Additionally, we have several options available:
- Create a shopping cart with home delivery option
- Write our own list by hand
- Scan product barcodes to compare prices
- Search for products manually
- Select our favorite supermarket
Let’s do an example: we write “Pepsi Max” in the search engine. Then we enter the product and you can see the price in different supermarkets. Likewise with shampoo, branded milk… In general, this application is very useful for products that several supermarkets have in common. If we are we are looking for white brands, we will have to enter product by productsince “Leche Hacendado” will not be available at Carrefour.
I am great
Soysuper is a price comparison tool that allows you to create your shopping list for your usual supermarket. More than 130,000 products with photos in the palm of your hand.
At Applesfera we hope that with this application it will be a little easier for you. In particular, I have had more than one surprise in supermarkets that seemed cheaper and, after comparing prices, it turned out that this was not the case. Of course, There are other factors such as the time invested This cannot be explained with money, although it must also be taken into account, because time is the only thing we can never get back.
