At the heart of our app is a simple mission: to help everyday New Zealanders make smarter choices and save money on groceries. For many of us, the rising cost of living isn't just a headline-it's something we feel every week at the checkout. In fact, New Zealand's food inflation has remained high, putting extra pressure on households everywhere.
This app was born from a deep desire to bring real, practical support to whānau across Aotearoa. We believe that by making informed choices and sharing resources-like this helpful guide on how to save money on food-we can lighten the load for each other. Whether you're a student trying to stretch your budget, a parent planning meals for your tamariki, or a retiree watching every dollar-we're here for you.
We also know that food prices aren't a short-term issue. Over the last decade, staples like beef, lamb, and milk have steadily risen in cost. You can see the trend yourself in this 10-year price data from Beef + Lamb NZ.
We built this app with care, for our communities. It's more than a savings tool-it's a small act of aroha in your pocket.
Every week, Aroha would spend hours flipping between store flyers and websites, trying to plan meals that wouldn't break the bank. With three kids and only one income, the pressure was constant. Our app helped her save time and money, giving her more moments with her tamariki.
Tom didn't need anything fancy-just a simple way to find the best deals. With our app, he gets the best prices on essentials and enjoys a little luxury now and then.
Between full-time work and raising kids, grocery shopping was a source of stress. Now they plan together using the app and save more each week-bringing peace of mind to their household.
We built this app for Aroha. For Tom. For Priya and Daniel. For our kids. And for you.
