Several weeks ago a reader contacted us looking for a way to create fast and easy grocery lists. I was later contacted by Ed Hladkowicz VP of mygrocerydeals.com:
Our goal was to create an engine that eliminates the need for consumers to wade through the grocery flyers and circulars delivered to their doors via the weekly newspapers. We are building our business from the grassroots level and are continually adding new stores, products and nutritional information based on feedback from members. We are not perfect in having all the information that consumers want, but we are trying hard. We encourage members to ask their local grocery stores to contact us with their advertised specials so we can incorporate them into our database. We are also continually updating our nutritional information on listed products so members can check ingredient information before heading out to their favorite stores.
Ivy and I have been checking out the site.
Useful?
Yes, I love the absolutely love the nutrition library. I have friends whose children have life threatening food allergies. The library lets me check for potential allergens as I consider a recipe.
Intuitive?
The site layout is functional, with an easily accessible FAQ section.
Time saving?
Absolutely. My favorite part is where you can skim the sale flyers. You can skim by store, skim by category, or skim by brand. This is AWESOME because you can determine quickly which store has the most of what you need on sale and you can hit the correct store. You can easily add things to your grocery list on the site, which then you can print out and take to the store with you.
Money saving?
Signing up for the site is free, which is awesome. Being able to shop the sales is one of the biggest ways I stock my pantry and save money, so yes, it’s absolutely money saving. Add to that the ability to print out coupons and they have a letter (PDF) you can print to the retailer if they won’t accept the online coupons.
The Home-Ec 101 recommendation:
This is a great money and time saver. We highly recommend checking out MyGroceryDeals.com.

This has got to be the most useful website I have used for comparison shopping. Mygrocerydeals.com now has picture previews of their featured items for each store and you can choose by category too. Im all over the “wine and spirits” category haha. I really like the tally that adds up what you have spent and what you have saved on the quick list. Awesome site!
