Apps for Saving at the Grocery Store

Ibotta is the one I use most. It took me a while to figure it out but it has had the best payout for me. It is rebates for many kinds of stores. I use it only for groceries but I hate shopping so I have no need for the other rebates. You buy something on their list, verify the UPC, then take a picture of the receipt. You get a payout at a $20 minimum. They use Paypal, too. 

The rebate on many name brand items but also on Any Brand items, like bread or eggs. They also rebate on some produce. they usually change the list slightly every week or so. I recommend look at the app at the store during your trip. or right before when you make your list. They can expire with out notice. Also do the rebate as soon as you can before they might expire. 

There are also Savings, Star, Checkout 51, and Groupon rebates. But they are mostly brand name groceries and most of it is processed food that I don't buy. 

Berrycart is one that is mostly natural and organic foods. But brands I don't buy or they are processed food that I don't buy. 

Shopkicks is one that gives you "kicks" , or points, for going into certain stores on their list and also scanning the UPC on certain products. You can redeem them for gift cards. I don't shop enough to make it worth it to me but you may find it works for you.
