This post was written in partnership with reebee.
I read an article a while ago that estimated food prices will increase by up to 3.5% in 2019. Whoa. That works out to about $411 more per family this year, and bad news for those of us on a budget. People gotta eat though, so there are only so many options for saving money on your food budget.
To start with, we can scale back or stop eating out entirely. I’m sure I could stand to cook at home a little more, but honestly having the occasional night off from cooking helps keep me sane. Strict meal planning can also help cut your grocery bills by reducing food waste, but the third (and easiest!) way is to shop smarter and spend less on groceries to begin with.
That’s where the reebee app can help!
reebee is a super easy way to collect all the grocery store flyers in your area in one convenient place so you can compare prices and get the best deals. You can either look through individual flyers or search for specific items on your shopping list to instantly comparison shop. On average, reebee users save over $3900 per year on groceries using the latest flyers and price matching on reebee. Nice!
Everything is localized so you only see flyers for the stores you’ll actually shop at. You can either enter your postal code manually or let your phone’s GPS do it for you so your flyers move with you.
And it’s not just groceries. You can browse flyers by category – grocery, electronics, home, children, etc. – or search for specific stores. On my app, I can see all the nearby grocery stores plus my other favourite stores in the area like Best Buy, London Drugs, Canadian Tire, Rona, and IKEA.
Not only will reebee help you save your hard-earned money, you’ll save time too. If you’ve been flipping through flyers looking for deals, using this free app to price match can save an average of 36 minutes per week. That’s like an extra day per year! With all that time to spare you could spend more time with the kids or, you know, maybe even take a nap! (Ha ha, yeah right.)
The app is intuitive and simple to use. You can either browse flyers or look for individual items. Search for any item, browse all the listings, and tap the plus sign to add your preferred deal to your shopping list. Everything on your list is organized by store, and I love that each listing shows when the price expires. reebee makes it really easy to plan my shopping for the week.
One more thing I like is how online flyers reduce waste. Like a lot of families, we cancelled our local newspaper a few years ago. We rarely read it, and I didn’t like wasting all that newsprint, but I missed browsing through the flyers, especially for groceries and Boxing Day sales. With reebee, I can price match and create my shopping list in-app, all at the same time and paper-free. When I walk into Costco or Canadian Tire, there’s no need to grab a flyer at the door. It’s already on my phone!
Whether you like to kick back on Saturday morning and price match all your weekend shopping online on your computer or tablet, or you prefer comparison shopping on the go on your phone, reebee can help.
Make it your New Year’s resolution to save on your grocery bill this year! Head over to the App Store or Google Play and download the reebee app to get started.

I would use the grocery adds such as Metro and real Canadian Superstore.
I like that you can compare for good deals and would use it at grocery stores!
I read Walmart every week.
I’ll put my local grocery stores and Lowes, Home Depot and Shoppers. I’d also add Marks, Roots, Sport Chek for those special sales.
I love the shopping list feature.
I would use the Reebee app to look up Loblaws flyers every week.
I like that I can view the Walmart and Sobeys fliers before I get them in the mail.

It’s easy to navigate & super helpful. Superstore Giant tiger, Canadian tire, no frills , food basics. Thanks

The flyer I would use the most is Walmart.
I like to go through the flyers to do price match so I would use the Fresh Co.,No Frills and Food Basics.
I like that all the flyers are right there since we don’t get any at our house. I would most likely use Sobeys and Shoppers Drug mart and Rexall the most.
I like Reebee and I use it to find the cheapest price on product I buy!
I’d use this to check out the grocery store flyers.
I like how simple it is to use. Everything right in one app instead having a bunch of flyers is great.
I love Reebee and have had the app for a while now. I love that I can search flyers and sales in my area right from my phone all in one place
I would use No Frills, Walmart, Freshco, and Shoppers flyers the most.
I love using this app to check out all the deals and for price matching when I go for my big shopping trips to Walmart, Superstore and No Frills
its very similar to what I have the mini google home which I love. I use the shopping app all the time. Hey google put paper towel to my shopping list.lol
I like the compare products feature. I like to browse flyers from Superstore and Toys r Us.
I would most use the Walmart and Real Canadian Superstore flyers to compare grocery prices.
I love Reebee! Such a great way to save money. I use the flyers for Walmart, RCSS, save-on Foods, Canadian Tire and Shoppers the most.
I love Reebee! It is so helpful and I love to save. I like looking at the Real Canadian Superstore flyer, and the Walmart one.
I am most likely to use WalMart, HomeHardware, Giant Tiger, Shoppers Drug Mart flyers.
I use the Giant Tiger, Food Basics and Shopper’s Drug Mart flyers
Definitely superstore, sometimes costco, and t and t
I like the app and would use it for Superstore and Walmart the most.
I’m most likely to use the flyers for groceries – I always look at flyers before going grocery shopping.
Always use it to plan out my menu for the week by visiting the grocery flyers
I like that you can compare prices on grocery items. I will use it most for Sobeys , dominion and Walmart
I would use it for any grocery or department store I could get to! My sister and I spent a huge amount of time going through all the flyers every week!
I would use Sobeys, No Frills and Costco
I love using the Reebee app to save me money on my groceries. I especially like to check the Walmart flyers and I have been using the app for quite some time now.
I like that I can search for a product for comparison shopping
I would use the Walmart and M&M Food Market flyers.
I would use the flyers for stores like Walmart and Loblaws to compare sale prices.
I love the built in shopping list! I will look up the Save on, Superstore and Natures fare flyers often!
I like that the app allows you to search for the best prices on specific items. I think I would look at the real Canadian superstore and Walmart flyers the most.
I like that search feature the most… if we want to make spaghetti and don’t have ground beef we can search just for that and it’s amazing the difference. One store can be $2.99 and another $5.99. That lets me know that I need to buy lots of the cheaper one and throw it in the freezer!
I would use the Walmart, Shoppers and Real Canadian Superstore flyers to compare prices.
none
I love the search feature! There are certain things I buy almost weekly, and I can just type the item into the search bar to see if it is on sale. Awesome!
I like that it helps you compare prices and also saves the paper used to print flyers.
I love the app because it is super easy to view all the flyers from my favorite stores in one place.
By my count i use the app for 11 flyers on a fairly regular basis. Most often i used it for Real Canadian Superstore, Shoppers Drug Mart, and M&M Food Market.
I love this idea! It helps me focus on shopping for what I need, and seeing if it’s on sale by searching through the app. If I look through all of flyers I end up buying things I don’t need just because they are on sale.
The flyers I am most likely to use are Food Basics, No Frills, Giant Tiger and Zehrs.
I like the shopping list feature in the app.
