The "Provisions" iPhone App – Now Available!

by Kelly on January 27, 2010

Glad you stopped by! Looking for something? Checkout my Categories and Resources page.

I am so excited to finally share with you my new iPhone Application that is out!  It is called the Provisions App and it is FREE.  Just search for “Provisions” in the App store and you will find it, look for the icon above.  You can get it through the App store on iTunes or at this link.

“Is that the best price? Should I get it now?”
These are questions savvy shoppers ask when making purchases. The answer is easy with the Provisions App! New from Faithful Provisions, the Provisions App tells you the best price on your everyday grocery purchases. By providing you with the best possible buying prices on your grocery purchases, you will save more money than ever before! If the price on the item you want matches the price on the price list, or close to it, you’ll know you better “get it now”!

How does it work?
You’re at the grocery store and wondering if $1.99/lb is a good price for ground beef. Just look it up on the Provisions App and see what the best price is for ground beef. Take control of your spending! Don’t be fooled by grocery store hype! Having the best prices at your fingertips allows you to be an educated and empowered shopper, in control of your money!

The Provisions App was created by the founder of FaithfulProvisions.com and Randa Solutions. The list of products and retailers is regularly updated by the staff of FaithfulProvisions.com web site, in order to reflect the best possible pricing and variety of products. The list is quickly downloaded when you run the App or, if no network is available, the most recent downloaded list is used.

This looks great! How do we know before purchasing if our local stores are included? The downloads have regional pricing? While this looks exciting I think I’m not understanding the “how” very clearly? :)

Super Jenn – The prices are average sale prices and will vary a little by region, but will give you a ball park to shoot for when purchasing items at the grocery store. There are two stores, Aldi and Costco, I included because they have great “everyday low prices” and items I don’t see go on sale often. Great places to get staple items. But, all other pricing is applicable to any store. I hope this helps!

I WOULD LOVE this information!!!!!!
Thank you for all that you are doing to encourage us to be good stewards of what God has given us!

Great idea! Would love to see it for Android phones (G1, Droid, Hero, MyTouch, Nexus One).

18 Sammy January 28, 2010 at 1:34 pm

Sounds cool! I have an iTouch not an iPhone will it still come up with the list even if we don’t have WiFi in the store?

Reply

19 Kelly January 28, 2010 at 2:15 pm

Sammy – I have an iTouch and when I click on Apps, it just takes me to the store if I am near a WiFi connection. I didn’t think it would. Then you find it that way. Let me know if that works for you!

I don’t have a cell phone really, just one of those pay-as-you-go phones but I just make myself up a price book in a little notebook that fits nicely into my purse and then I know all the best prices on the stores in my area (we don’t have Publix and several others but we do have Kroger and an
Aldi). The prices change some but I just keep my little notebook updated with the things we eat. Easy and free!

This is great! I only have an iTouch, which my kids got me for Christmas, and it just wouldn’t update, but I could get at all the info that was already there, offline. Thanks so much, I’ve been meaning to get around to making a pricebook.

Will you do one for Blackberry too! It looks awesome, but I don't have an IPhone.

Reply

26 Whitney February 12, 2010 at 5:08 pm

Hey Kelly. iTouch user here and I wanted to see if you'd consider adding to the app an option that we can add our favorite stores on our own (like Trader Joe's!). So, I can move my price book to the iTouch for when I go shopping.

Reply

27 Kelly February 14, 2010 at 3:09 pm

Whitney – That is a great suggestion, I will put that on in the queu for future upgrades! Thanks so much!

kelly,
i've been using the iphone app and it's been helpful….what i can't seem to find is a listing for potatoes…..i saw that there were some cheap ones at Aldi but i rarely make it out there and wanted to know what a good price in general for them would be…thanks

Thank you! I’ll definitely put this to good use!

I have an iPhone and when I just downloaded this app, it keeps saying “could not connect to the server to update the list. It won’t connect for some reason. I even tried deleting it and downloading again but it’s still not working. Any suggestions?

Reply

34 Kelly July 9, 2010 at 9:43 am

Jennifer, There is an issue with the app right now, they are working on it as we speak! I’ll post an update once it is fixed. Thanks for your patience!

Reply

35 Kelly July 9, 2010 at 10:54 am

Jennifer – Okay, the servers have been reset and you should be able to connect now. Let me know if you have any issues.
