Groceries

How does groceries price tracking work?

Every week, aubaine.ca reads the flyers of Quebec's major merchants and extracts every product with its price. These readings accumulate week after week: for each product you see today's price and its history — a price logbook that never stops. 533 products are currently tracked in this section.

What is it for?

Knowing whether a "special" really is one. A displayed discount means nothing without a reference point; with the history you see at a glance whether this week's price is genuinely lower than usual. It's the tool to decide when to buy and where.

A tool that improves every week

The more weeks go by, the deeper the history gets and the more reliable the comparisons become: discount cycles, floor prices, seasons. The database grows on its own, every Thursday with the new flyers.

Why come back often?

Because prices change every week. What you pay full price for today may hit its floor price next Thursday — and the best deals go fast. A quick look before writing your grocery list means you always buy at the right time.
