Spend Less. Eat Better. Shop Smarter. That's the whole idea. Grocery List Plus tells you what your groceries actually cost before you get to the register, and helps you plan the week around the food you already have. Build your list and watch real shelf prices from the stores near you land next to every item, so you can see at a glance where this week's trip is cheapest. Plan your meals from a library of thousands of recipes — each one with its ingredients, step-by-step instructions, full nutrition, and an estimated cost to make. Tell the meal maker what's already in your kitchen and it'll show you what you can cook tonight without another trip to the store. Keep a running picture of your household inventory so the things you always buy turn up on your list before you run out. Get food-recall alerts matched to the items you actually bought — not a generic news feed. Filter everything by how your household really eats: diets, allergens, the cuisines you love, the time you actually have on a Tuesday. Swap ingredients for healthier ones and watch the nutrition update as you go. Keep your loyalty cards in one place. Share the whole thing with the people you shop for. And all of it works in English and Spanish. Coming in fall 2026: scheduled delivery to your door, and a marketplace of local farms, butchers, and independent grocers in your metro — at honest prices, with no markup on what you pay.

The planning side goes wherever you do. Lists, recipes, meal planning, inventory, and recall alerts work anywhere in the country, and live store pricing shows up wherever we have coverage — which grows every week. Delivery and the local marketplace are a different kind of thing. Those get built neighborhood by neighborhood, because they depend on real drivers and real local vendors we've met face to face. We're starting in Charlotte, NC and Cincinnati, OH in fall 2026 and expanding metro by metro from there, as fast as we can do it properly.

Tap "Get Started" on the home page and you're in. Sign up with your email, or use Google or Apple if you'd rather skip having another password to remember. The Free tier is free forever — no credit card, no trial clock counting down. Add your ZIP code or allow location access and you'll see prices from the stores near you right away.

Yes — and it stays free. No credit card, no trial period, no bait. Free gives you a shopping list, the full recipe library with room to save six favorites, household inventory tracking, price comparison across the stores near you, and food-recall alerts tied to what you actually buy. It's ad-supported, and that's exactly how it stays free. When you want more, the paid plans open up the meal planner, sharing your lists with everyone in your household, saved loyalty cards, recipes you write yourself, smart restock suggestions that learn your rhythm, and — once it launches — included deliveries each month. If ads are the only thing bothering you, there's a one-time $5.99 that removes them for good, with no subscription attached. See Account & Subscription for exactly what each plan adds.

Grocery List Plus runs in any modern web browser — laptop, tablet, or phone — and everything syncs the second you sign in. The list you build at the kitchen table is the list in your hand at the store, already checked off by whoever got there first. Native iOS and Android apps arrive in fall 2026.

Not at all. You can build lists, browse recipes, and plan meals without telling us where you are. But location is what makes the prices real. Add a ZIP code or allow location access and you'll see what things actually cost at the stores near you, which store wins this week's trip, and recalls that matter to the items in your kitchen. When delivery and the local marketplace launch in fall 2026, your location is what connects you to both. We never share your location with advertisers. Not now, not ever.
