Tell Us Your Parish
Pick your home parish (or share your location) so BuyersMarket shows the stores you can actually get to and estimates distance and drive time.
Your location is only used to work out which stores and trips make sense for you. You can change your parish any time in Settings.
Make Your First Search
Search for something you buy every week, or browse one of the 14 shopper categories.
Type a product name, like "brown sugar" or "rice"
Open a product to see its price at each store, with the A-B-C rating
Tap Add to Shopping List to save it for your next trip
🎯 Reading the rating
A (Grab It!) is one of the best prices around, B (Fair Price) is fine if you need it, and C (Hold Off) means you can do better. Learn how ratings work.
Find the Best Store for Your List
Add a few items to a list, then tap Find Best Store. BuyersMarket totals your whole list at each store you can reach.
🏪 Best store
Which store has your whole list for the lowest total.
🗺️ Split trip
If no one store has everything, the fewest stores that do.
🚗 Is this trip worth it?
Counts gas and drive time, so a far-away saving doesn't fool you.
🔥 Today's deals
Real price drops at the stores you can reach.
🎉 You're All Set!
That's the basics. Check the ratings before you shop and let BuyersMarket pick the store.
⚠️ Common Mistakes to Avoid
Ignoring B-Ratings
B doesn't mean bad! If you need an item now, a B is a fair price. Don't wait forever for an A if you're running out.
Not Checking Before Your Weekly Shop
Prices change every day. A quick look at your list before you leave home catches the A-rated deals.
Chasing One Cheap Item Across Town
A cheaper price far away can cost more once you count gas and time. Check "Is this trip worth it?" first.
