About BasketBadger
BasketBadger is a free grocery-basket comparison app. It starts with the list a household actually needs, compares that whole basket across the supermarkets it covers, and names the single store with the cheapest honest total. It does not judge a shop by one eye-catching price on milk or coffee while the rest of the basket quietly costs more.
Why BasketBadger exists
A weekly shop is rarely won or lost on one product. It is decided by the combined effect of ordinary shelf prices, pack sizes, meal deals, multibuys, loyalty prices, missing products and the cost of delivery or collection. Those details are hard to hold in your head while standing in an aisle — and they are exactly the details a computer can check carefully.
BasketBadger was built to do that checking in the open. The shopper keeps control of the list and the final choice; BasketBadger does the arithmetic and explains it.
The one-shop verdict
When you compare a basket, BasketBadger looks for the best complete answer at one store, not a theoretical saving that depends on visiting several shops. Its comparison is designed to count:
- every item on the list, matched as exactly as the available product information allows;
- promotions and loyalty prices that genuinely apply to that basket;
- items a store does not stock or that cannot be priced, named rather than silently ignored;
- delivery or pickup fees, so the fee is part of the total before a winner is named; and
- the difference between a complete basket and a cheaper-looking partial one.
The result is a verdict with a reason: one store, one total and the working behind it. If the app cannot price something, it should say so. A missing item is never dressed up as a saving. Our whole-basket comparison guide explains the method in more detail.
Honest about the limits
Grocery prices, promotions and stock change. Coverage also varies by place and retailer, and BasketBadger does not claim to cover every store or every product. The price charged by the retailer — in store or at its checkout — is the final price. BasketBadger's job is to give shoppers a clearer, better-explained comparison before they choose, and to identify gaps rather than hide them.
BasketBadger is not a supermarket. We do not sell groceries, take payment for a shopping order or deliver shopping. When a shopper continues to a retailer, that retailer's own terms apply to the purchase, delivery, substitutions and returns.
How BasketBadger is funded
BasketBadger is free to use, with no paywall and no subscription. Some outbound links to retailers are affiliate links. If a shopper buys through one, the retailer or an affiliate network may pay GETBARGAINBADGER a commission at no extra cost to the shopper.
That funding never buys a ranking. Commission is not an input to the verdict, and a retailer cannot pay for the cheapest position. The full rule is on our affiliate disclosure and in Our Promises.
