There is at least one app you can really justify buying and that’s the iPhone Shopper or BlackBerry’s Smart Shopper. For a mere $1 to $3, depending on which app you buy, you could have a nifty tool that will help you track your spending on groceries. Playing on your phone just got a lot more conducive to frugal living!
With these applications, you can load your list and then check the items off as you go. As you add them to the cart, plug in the price of each item so that you can see a running total. If it looks like you’re going over budget, you may want to consider putting an item or two back or opting for a less expensive version of some foods.
If you’ve been looking for a proven way to stick to your food cost budget, downloading this app could be a big help.
