CHP application allows comparison shopping in the supermarket of food from all branches of major chains within a radius of up to 10 kilometers. The results are sorted cheaper more expensive. At each store there are additional details such as the address of the store. In addition, if the product is sold at that store operation, then another press tell us the details of the operation (such as two-for-one, and so on).
In addition, it is possible to scan the barcode of a product using the device's camera, and displaying price stores nearby.
Why is there a need for such an application?
According to Central Bureau of Statistics, as of 2015, spending on food accounted for 16.3% of the average monthly income of the household in Israel. This section indicates the household belong to lower income decile, to the point where over 20% of monthly income of households in the five lowest deciles, Msmsmim purchase food. In other words, the household needed more economically (a young family, or a single parent, for example), the greater the share of its revenue is used to purchase food.
This is then, with the most major expense factor, which is saving it, even small savings, has the power to significantly impact the well-being of many families in Israel.
Not many people know, but the family savings on food expenditure is possible, and even easy to do. It turns out that there are differences, sometimes large, the prices of those products from different shops literally, even stores located in close proximity to each other.
The simple act of comparing prices from supermarkets, can bring substantial cost savings.
Until now, comparing prices between shops was a difficult task to perform, because consumption is exhausting legwork for passage between the physical stores. Most people shied away from that, because of lack of time and effort it takes to invest.
Now, the CHP application allows price comparisons of many products, without having to leave the house. You can compare between stores in a particular city or around the location of the user.
The app's database contains tens of thousands of products and price comparison is made between all branches of major chains.
You can type a product's barcode or name. If the search produces more than one (for example, if you type a generic term such as "Materna"), you receive a list of all the products suitable to describe, and each of them can get a list of nearby stores prices.
In addition, if the product is within reach, you can scan its barcode with the device's camera, and get the results more accurate comparison. This is especially useful if we are at the store, and debating whether to purchase a particular product. You can scan its barcode and get a list of prices at which the product is sold in other stores nearby. In this way, we will know if the price in the store we're in now, is worthwhile or not.
If a particular product sold in the operation, then the search results will appear in a button with the word "operation". Clicking on the button will open a window with details on the operation (operation cost, operation conditions, whether it is for everyone or just for a membership card, until when the offer is valid, and so on).
The app was designed and is designed so that its use simple and intuitive. The interface is somewhat reminiscent of the Google search engine. Nutritious product, and get the product price list for the various stores.
This app is for the public benefit, and therefore it is free and does not require registration or providing any personal information.
We wish you a price comparison beneficial translate into financial savings for the benefit of your family.

CHP staff.
