| Of course I compare prices, I have a tight budget and would never meet it if I didn't compare prices. This price comparison chart has helped me greatly because I shop at 3 of the 4 stores, now I can quickly see which store offers the cheapest prices. If I'm rushed for time, I'll just go to the one store with the most deals on my shopping list. When I have lots of time on my hands, I don't mind taking the time to go to the different stores to get the best prices. |

| I can't believe it! The prices are right on! I would suggest price chopper because it seems the cheapest and more likely to get your approval. I saw this add on the news and went to the website. I have just one thing to say..........AMAZING! |

| I am a first time visitor and have not quite figured my way around. However, the concept may prove very for me. |
Admincommented on Jul 18 2008 12:05PM |
| Hi Carolyn, The layout is simple, there are 7 options located at the top, each one can assist you in grocery shopping. If you have any questions, please feel free to leave one here or contact us. |

| When I saw this on City TV I couldn't wait to have a look. I have access to nearly all the stores just on my daily travels so it will work for me. Plus I like your price book feature. Good Job!!!! |

| What about Sobeys, Dominions, Superstore in the Quick Compare section? |
Diagoracommented on Jul 28 2008 7:38PM |
| I agree Thumb, what about the other stores? |
admincommented on Jul 28 2008 7:56PM |
| Thanks for everybody's input and support. We'll be adding a new grocery store to our existing list of participating stores in the near future. Stay tuned! |

| This comparison chart is second only to sliced bread. A wonderful tool. |
JoJo999commented on Aug 31 2008 1:33PM |
| What about other items not on saleI was looking to price compare sugar for example but could not. It would be a great idea to have a search product area and have the price returned. Thanks |
Admincommented on Sep 16 2008 7:19PM |
| Hi JoJo99, Great suggestion, let me point you to where this feature is located: http://www.grocerysavings.ca/groceryPriceBookHistory.asp or you can locate this option "Price Book" at the top navigation bar. You can search for a grocery's price history. Let me know how it works out. |

| this site sucks |
Admincommented on Oct 2 2008 8:56PM |
| Thank you for your comment. I do understand that this site may not serve everybody. However any suggestions that you may have that will help us better serve you in the future are welcome. |
Bevcommented on Oct 31 2008 1:27PM |
| I love this site, but is there one for British Columbia? |
Joycecommented on Nov 6 2008 6:47AM |
| Your answer to JoJo999's question is OK if you want to know what you MISSED but is there no place you can find current prices. For instance I want to buy a large quantity of Juice Boxes for a conference and would like to compare prices. Is this available anywhere? |
Admincommented on Nov 10 2008 4:28PM |
| Hi Bev, Thanks for the kind words. For the time being, some parts of the website are for Ontario only such as the flyer deals, price comparison and price history. The flyers and coupons are applicable to all of Canada, so these section could be of use to you. |
Admincommented on Nov 13 2008 9:50AM |
| Hi Joyce, Thank you for pointing out what I had missed on JoJo999's comment. There is no definite list of prices for groceries that are not on-sale. But there is an online price book that works by having consumers, like you, report local grocery prices so that everyone can compare prices and see where the cheapest prices can be found. If we all contribute just a little, we can all benefit greatly from this price book. Find out more or start contributing to the grocery price book. You can also select the "Online Price Book" option on the top navigation. |

| Do participating stores pay to be on the site? Thanks. |

| I live in Australia, it's amazing how similar the prices are here, even with the currency conversion |
Khrystahcommented on Aug 19 2009 4:24AM |
| What a FANTASTIC site! I was doing a survey for a pet food company regarding flyers and this site (along with 3 others) was mentioned in the survey. I will definitely be visiting here first before I go grocery shopping from now on! :) |

| Make sure in any store you compare the size (contents) Bread in Walmart is $1.47 for 520g.and No Frills is a $1.47 for 675g. both W Wheat. A lot of stores now are making smaller pkg. for same price. |
V Krishnan - Price Boolkcommented on Nov 2 2009 6:33AM |
| Istead of asking product name a combo box can be provided which will be very useful. |
wendy pringlecommented on Nov 14 2009 3:16AM |
| i think this is great. occasionally the paper isn't delivered or missing a flyer or two. saves time on scouring every flyer if you have a few certain items in mind |
weerwildecommented on Dec 23 2009 11:26AM |
| It's great. I have been having a problem with my paperboy and not getting my grocery flyers. This is great help because the comparisons are already done for you. |
Bobcommented on Jan 13 2010 10:45AM |
| You'd probably waste more money on gas driving to 3-4 different stores in one day then you'd save by buying food thats like $0.30 cheeper... Just saying |
