Put prices on your grocery list and see the total before checkout
Short answer: give each item on your list a quantity and a price, and the app adds up an estimated total. You decide what to leave out before it goes in the cart, not at the till.
Why a list needs prices
"Doesn't have pricing" is one of the most common complaints about shopping list apps. With grocery prices climbing, a list should tell you not just what to buy but roughly what it'll cost.
How to see the total in Cartnote
- Add what you need to a folder in one go, separated by commas.
- Tap an item and enter a quantity and a price. Add a note for the brand or size if it matters.
- The folder shows an estimated total, and it updates as you change quantities.
- Over budget? Cut an item or reduce a quantity before you shop.
Keeping it quick
Prices don't have to be exact. Rough figures from your last receipt give a total that's good enough. Items you've bought before come back as chips you can tap to re-add, so the staples get faster every week.
Keep different lists for different stores and each folder gets its own total, so you can see where the money actually goes.
Shopping and to-dos in one place
Plenty of people keep errands next to the shopping. Cartnote's to-dos get due-time reminders, a monthly calendar and an 8 AM briefing, and the home-screen widget shows what's still left to buy.
