It's time to get serious about your groceries and other supplies. You likely live close to a few large chain stores, and more smaller "Dollar" outlets and convenience stores... plus you have as many for online options. But you only have time to consider the price, amount, and convenience of either "ordering delivery," or fetching it yourself while out at work or doing other errands. KitchList is here to help you. Not just another simple grocery list-minder (although you can use it as such)... add onto your needed items with brands, measurements, and the shelf and sale prices for different stores. KitchList will tell you where you will get the best price for your items, without resorting to coupons. It's easy. Add items to your list by tapping the '+' button. Tap to the left of your items in the 'List' view to checkmark them as needed; they will then appear in your 'Cart' view for easy reference. Sometimes it's not just pennies you're saving; the difference can be in dimes to dollars. Save on the things you need... have more for the stuff you want. KitchList isn't just for groceries, either! Try it to remember wanted items like clothes, or tasks you need to do ("take out the trash"), or even appliances (TVs, computers)... even while calling around for hotels/bed-and-breakfast stays. Just punch in a different measurement (like "size" for monitors, or "days" for hotel stays). Then see which place offers you the best "price per measure". Can you think of more ways to save with KitchList?
