Pinch Savings

About Pinch Savings

Stop guessing which store has the better deal. Pinch turns your phone into a grocery price scanner: scan any barcode (or enter a PLU code for produce) and instantly see what that item costs at the stores near you.

HOW IT WORKS
- Scan a barcode or produce code to look up or add a price
- Compare prices across every store you've saved
- Build a shopping list, then let Pinch generate the cheapest possible trip, even if that means splitting it across two stores
- Check items off as you shop, skip what's out of stock, or swap in an alternative on the spot

BUILT ON REAL PRICES FROM REAL SHOPPERS
Every price in Pinch comes from someone who scanned it in-store. When two shoppers confirm the same price, it gets a verified badge, so you know it's current, not stale.

EARN AS YOU SHOP
Every scan and price submission earns points. Unlock badges, build a scanning streak, and climb the regional leaderboard. Invite friends with your referral code and earn bonus points when they join.

WEIGHED ITEMS, HANDLED
Produce and other by-weight items don't have a barcode. Pinch has you covered with PLU code lookup, so your price history stays accurate on fresh food too.

FIND YOUR STORES
Save the stores you actually shop at, or let Pinch find nearby options as you go.

Pinch is built by grocery shoppers who got tired of comparing prices in their head at the shelf. Every scan makes the app a little smarter for everyone else nearby.
