Hey OzBargain,

Some of you might have seen Bargeroo before. It's a grocery price comparison app I built as a solo side project because I was genuinely sick of switching between three apps every week trying to figure out where my groceries were cheapest.

Since the last post I've been heads down shipping updates based on the feedback I got, and I wanted to share what's new. I'm also offering 1 month of Bargeroo Pro completely free (no card needed, no strings) so hopefully this counts as a proper deal this time around.

What's new:

  • Price History Charts - you can now see how a product's price has moved over 1 month, 3 months, or all-time across all three stores. So when
    Coles says something is "half price," you can actually check if that's legit or if it was just marked up last week.
  • Local Availability Checking - pop in your postcode and see which stores near you actually have a product in stock before you bother driving
    there. I haven't seen any other grocery app in Australia do this.

  • Location-based deals - specials are now filtered to your state, so you're not seeing deals that don't apply to where you live.

    What it does (if you missed the first post):

  • Real-time price comparison across Coles, Woolworths, and Aldi (37,000+ products)

  • Smart shopping list that auto-groups by store and shows how much you'll save
  • Find cheaper replacements across all three stores
  • Half-price & specials browser with store and category filters

  • Price drop alerts on your favourites

    The deal - Bargeroo Pro, 1 month free:

    Pro gives you unlimited availability checks, zero ads, and priority access. First month is free, no credit card needed. If you don't subscribe
    after that, you keep using the free version with all the features above (just with ads and a daily limit on availability checks).

    Get your free trial here: https://bargeroo.com.au/free-trial

    Available on iOS and Android

    This is a passion project and I'm putting everything I've got into it. Any feedback, feature requests, or just a kind word - it all means a lot.
    Cheers.

    could the supermarkets come after me for this?

    For what reason would they come after you for this app? Craig from Shopping Trolley has been doing it for a while, and he's still alive: https://shppngtrlly.com.au
    His website lists all the specials for Coles, Woolworths, Amazon and others.

      It's "illegal" to scrape websites.

      Haven't looked to much into how this service might be doing it, and I certainly couldn't give a (profanity) about the rule, but if a company wants to they can pull that crap

      The app is completely free. There's an optional Pro subscription ($2.99/mo or $24.99/yr) if you want to remove ads and get unlimited stock checks, but everything else works without paying anything.

      • olderman on 06/04/2026 - 09:13

        How do you show/store images for products?
        Search for “Twinings”, you get many products with 1/2 price tag image displayed, while the actual current price is the full price.
        What’s also confusing: you open the product details (let’s say same Twinings teas) and the green store prices bar shows something quite messy like “Woolworths Best Price Half Price $13.50” which is not true again.

        • Associatedjans-johnson @ Bargeroo on 06/04/2026 - 11:21
          -4

          Price could vary with the location. I am trying to make the app more location specific but if you want to verify the price you can try checking for availability and it'll show you the prices for stores near you.

            @jans-johnson: Weird response. I set my preferred stores, search for a product, get the results showing 1/2 price on the images of products, while it’s actually a full price at the moment. There could be stores across Australia where same product is now discounted — why would I care if I defined my nearby stores?

    I’ve had this exact business idea in mind for a long time, so I’m thrilled to see someone has finally built it. Great work! Interestingly, your service didn't appear during my initial Google research.

    ​In an ideal version of the app, I’d love the ability to add all items to a single trolley and have the system distribute them across the cheapest supermarkets for click and collect. Since I have three major retailers nearby, I’d be more than happy to visit multiple locations to reduce my total spend.

    • Lucille Bluth on 06/04/2026 - 09:10

      I’ve had this exact business idea in mind for a long time

      In an ideal version of the app, I’d love the ability to add all items to a single trolley and have the system distribute them across the cheapest supermarkets for click and collect

      This app posted two days ago for a competing app for Coles and Woolies pushes items to their respective carts, can use it as a shopping list when heading instore.

    • ryanwe on 06/04/2026 - 13:45

    Need to watch an ad for 25 seconds to check the availability of a product. Do you think anyone will use this?

    • Associatedjans-johnson @ Bargeroo on 06/04/2026 - 09:13
      -1

      That feature actually cost me money to implement. My profit from the ads is close to zero. Have no other option other than putting ads for that one. I hope people use it. cause no other price comparison app has that feature. :). (ps: you can check availabity of products in bulk with one ad if you're checking it from the shopping list page :) )

      • Techefy on 06/04/2026 - 20:51

        Cool makes sense, boy cannot do everything for charity.

    • Yankyviking on 17/04/2026 - 15:42

      25 seconds ad is Better than spending time on calling the stores to check the availablity! People do use youtube with ads of more than 1-2 minutes.

  • Endynos on 06/04/2026 - 09:01
    +5

    Hmmmmm love the concept from just checking it out briefly but just some quick feedback
    - 30 second ad everytime I want to check availability for an item is a bit diabolical (on the free version). Maybe have clear tokens/usages before you get hit with an ad, and perhaps shorter ones? I understand the need for ads but 30 seconds makes me give up and is way faster to go to my Coles app and see availability. This stopped me from using the app. Paid version definitely helps though.

    • If an item is unavailable, it could be nice to know where the closest in stock item is (especially when looking at those "steals"

    • Price history is nice but it only shows the past week which isn't that handy, might be a bug but I see no option to change between price history times e.g. Change to view last few months

    Hope to see more improvements, keep it up

    • Associatedjans-johnson @ Bargeroo on 06/04/2026 - 09:17

      You have an option to check the availability of items in bulk by watching a single ad from the shopping list page.

      • (If an item is unavailable, it could be nice to know where the closest in stock item is (especially when looking at those "steals") -> Yes it does do that. You only wont see any stores if its nowhere available near you.

      • I just started tracking price history for some products. You will see all in the coming weeks. But I have price history for 3 months for some other products you'll notice when you check out more products.

    • Associatedjans-johnson @ Bargeroo on 06/04/2026 - 09:20

      Yeah that’s fair. last post was more focused on the tool itself so I understand why it got moved.
      This one’s a bit different. I’ve included a specific deal and also a 1-month free offer, so thought it might be more relevant here.

    Hey great app. Can you add an option to report an incorrect price?
    I’ve noticed some products that show half price but when I go to Coles website they are full price. So I’m not sure where the data came from.

    • Jaduqimon on 06/04/2026 - 09:11

      Its vibe coded. You are asking for too much. The data is probably.onlu refreshed once a week.

      • Darkjimick on 06/04/2026 - 09:12

        Ah damn. Yea that’s understandable

      • Tanvry on 06/04/2026 - 14:30

    • scud70 on 06/04/2026 - 09:17
      +1

      Depending on how his getting his data, if it's APIs against the retailers Web platform to pick up pricing or actual scouring of the sites and items then there is a chance this data will be incorrect, there's also 3rd party aggregators of pricing data you can buy from. Online pricing can and is different to in store in some occasions, I've had a chat to woolies staff before (and I work for a company that sells into Coles and woolies).. The staff said yeh it happens and it's a pain in the ass for them as they get a lot of customers showing the online listing at a discount but in store prices are not discounted.

      • Associatedjans-johnson @ Bargeroo on 06/04/2026 - 09:23

        I'm taking the data directly from the websites and you'll see whatever on the website here.

    • Associatedjans-johnson @ Bargeroo on 06/04/2026 - 09:22

      I'll surely add that. Currently I have scraped for VIC and as far as i know the price is pretty solid for VICTORIA. The price may vary by your location. I am trying to make the app as location specific as possible. But for now you can verify the current prices in your area just by doing an availability check in your area.

      • Darkjimick on 06/04/2026 - 09:34

        Ok, Victoria must have different prices to SA for some products

        • TrivagoTeeth on 06/04/2026 - 10:06

          I would absolutely think that's the case. Even regional is/can be different

  • noodlefan on 06/04/2026 - 09:08

    The availability feature is useful, but since it doesn’t show exact stock quantities, items are sometimes not actually available in-store.

    • Associatedjans-johnson @ Bargeroo on 06/04/2026 - 09:24

      Yes. It always shows the current supermarket website data.

      • Sweet3st on 06/04/2026 - 10:49

        I find this is unreliable. I regularly check availability in my local Woolies store, then when I get there, half is not on shelf.

        I like yours way better simply because UI/UX is so much better. Wiselist looks more data heavy but is so damn cunky. Id never recc to mum or dad to download.

        fyi i think the search was better on wiselist

        This is vibe coded crap, so expect it to land in the same place. It's even showing the wrong prices because it doesn't account for differences in regional pricing, and that's some very basic knowledge you would expect someone operating in that industry to have.
