GrocerApp — Price upload

Controlled catalog with type facets. Defaults to Anon; log in to attribute submissions. If you know the category (e.g. leaf vegetables) but not the exact product (e.g. pak choi), pick that category and product type Unknown / not sure with a photo — the category is kept as a pointer for classification. Fully unsure? Use the top-level Unknown group. Price and place still count. Why log a price?

Recent products

Each line is a product others have priced. Click the name to select it fully. Click a facet chip (brand, pack, attribute) to filter. Ctrl+click (⌘ on Mac) toggles extra facets into a combined filter (same product type only).

Why log a price?

A photo and a price take about 15–30 seconds in the aisle. You get an immediate sense-check on whether that shelf price is any good — and every log makes local comparisons better for everyone.

No account required to contribute. Register only if you want your username on submissions and (later) badges or alerts.

What you get right away

Built or planned personal payback — the reason to open the camera mid-shop.

Cheaper nearby After you log: same or similar product for less, a few minutes away.
Is this a good price? See how your price ranks against recent logs near you (e.g. cheaper than most in 2 km).
Unit-price coach Compare £ per unit across pack sizes so a “deal” pack doesn’t fool you.
Watchlists & alerts Set “eggs under £2.50 near me” — your own logs make those alerts smarter.
Basket savings Estimate whether splitting your usual list across shops would save money.
Photo-first, no catalogue expertise needed Not sure of the exact product? Photo + price still counts; we classify later.

Rewards & recognition

Coming as the community grows — quality (photo-backed, real location) beats spam volume.

Points → premium tools Unlock alerts history, multi-store baskets, and export with contribution credits.
Partner vouchers & draws Occasional local rewards for verified logs — never paid placement of “cheapest.”
Neighbourhood goals “Cover every staple on your street” progress, badges, and optional local leaderboards.
Impact you can see “Your logs powered hundreds of local comparisons this month.”
Trusted shopper path High-quality contributors may get early features or a small verified panel role.

Why it matters beyond your trolley

Local price transparency Independents and convenience formats often missing from big comparison sites.
Evidence, not guesses Photos and provenance mean “who said what” stays clear — useful for you and for public cost-of-living work.
Fairer map of the high street When local shops win on price, that should show up.

How to log in under half a minute

Photo of the shelf edge or label (price visible if you can).
Price and currency (GBP by default).
Location — detect GPS; confirm the store if we suggest one.
Product — pick from recent items, use vision assist, or “Unknown” with the photo.
Submit — you’re done. Comparisons and “cheaper nearby” build from this.

Tip: for weekly staples, re-select a recent product — two taps plus a new price.

Privacy, briefly

We store the observation (price, place, product or photo, and technical details such as IP for abuse prevention). Prefer shelf labels, not people. Commercial uses, when they exist, are based on aggregates — not selling your personal shopping trail.
