Scrimp: Budget Meal Planner

A week of dinners for $60, with the grocery list, in ten seconds. Tell Scrimp how many people eat, what you can spend and how you like to eat. It plans seven dinners that fit the budget, writes the grocery list by aisle with an estimated total, and plans around what is already in your pantry. REAL FOOD, REAL PRICES • 120 costed recipes from $0.81 a plate: Tex-Mex, Italian, Greek, Korean, Indian, Thai, Southern, pantry classics. • Every recipe scales to your table. Every ingredient has a price, so the week has a number before you shop. • Budget bar for the week. Swap any dinner for one that keeps you under. • Variety built in: no cuisine or protein three nights running. THE GROCERY RECEIPT • Grouped by aisle, package-rounded, tick items off as you shop. • Staples you probably have (oil, spices, flour) are listed separately so they don't pad the total. • Share the list as text. PANTRY MODE • Add what you own and the planner leans on it. Nothing goes to waste, and the basket gets cheaper. SMART, AND PRIVATE • With Apple Intelligence, write "two veggie nights, no mushrooms, kids eat with us, weeknights under 40 minutes" and Scrimp sets itself up. It also writes a short note on why the week fits and lunch ideas from the leftovers. • All of it runs on your iPhone. No account, no analytics, no network. Your plans never leave the device. • Works without Apple Intelligence too, with toggles instead of free text. ONE PRICE • Free download with three free plans. • Scrimp Unlimited is a one-time purchase for unlimited weeks, pantry mode and swaps. No subscription, ever. Prices are US national averages for standard package sizes, updated with each release. Your store will differ; treat totals as a close estimate.
