Know the real price of everything.

Groceries went up, and the stores got better at making it hard to tell what anything actually costs. Different sizes, "2 for $6", buy one get one, yellow tags on things that were never cheaper. The people who save real money keep a price book: a record of what they pay for the things they buy most. Pricebook is that notebook, done properly, in one file on your computer.

FOUR TOOLS IN ONE

• Unit price calculator: up to six options side by side. Multi-packs, "3 for $10", buy one get one free, % off and coupons all turned into the true price per ounce, pound, gallon or item. The winner gets a Best buy badge, and with your usage it shows what the difference is worth in a year.
• Price book: every item with its price history at every store, a chart, and your best, typical and worst price. Log a price in five seconds. See which store is usually cheapest for each thing and what switching would save you a year.
• Is it a deal?: type the price on the tag and get a straight verdict from your own history: Stock-up price, Good price, Normal price, Pricey, or Fake sale. It shows the reasons, where it is usually cheaper, how often it goes on sale, and how many to buy to last until the next one.
• Shopping list: add what you need and it splits the list by the store where each thing is cheapest, with the trip total and what the split saves versus one store. Skip a store this week and it re-sorts. Print it for the trip.

Also

• Works with ounces, pounds, grams, kilos, fluid ounces, quarts, gallons, millilitres, litres, count and dozens
• Your own stores and categories
• Export every price as a CSV for your own spreadsheet
• Comes with a full example book (42 items, six months, four stores) so you can see it working before you start
