About this app

Least helps you instantly see which major retailer offers the lowest overall price for your full shopping basket — not just individual items. Whether you’re shopping for groceries, tech, or household essentials, Least does the math for you, ensuring you always get the best deal without hopping from site to site.

🛒 Why Least?

Retail prices in South Africa change constantly — making it difficult to know if you’re truly saving. Least solves that by comparing complete baskets across stores like Shoprite, Checkers, Pick n Pay, Woolworths, Makro, Game, and more, giving you real-time visibility of who’s most affordable overall.

No more screenshots, spreadsheets, or endless tabs — just clear, verified comparisons designed for everyday South Africans.

💡 Core Features

Total Basket Comparison: See which retailer offers the cheapest total for all the items in your cart, not just single products.

Smart Tabs: Switch between “Comparable Baskets” (items available in all stores) and “All Availability” (showing all stores that stock each product).

Live Price Tracking: Updated store feeds ensure you always see the latest prices and promotions.

Favorites & Lists: Save frequently bought items or entire lists for quick re-use next month.

Influencer Lists: Browse curated shopping lists and meal prep ideas created by trusted local creators.

Receipt Uploads (Coming Soon): Verify in-store pricing and help improve price accuracy through community-driven data.

Smart Insights: View store-by-store breakdowns of your savings, monthly spend trends, and inflation comparisons.

Lightweight & Mobile-Optimized: Designed for smooth, fast browsing on any device, whether you’re at home or in-store.

🤝 Built for South African Shoppers

Least understands the local context — from price inflation and promotions to product substitutions and online delivery fees.
Our algorithms adapt to South African retailer structures, ensuring that every price shown reflects real in-store or online pricing where possible.

🔒 Privacy & Transparency

Your privacy matters. Least does not track or sell your data to advertisers or third parties.
Any analytics collected are used purely to improve app performance, search accuracy, and feature reliability — never for advertising or profiling.

No App Tracking Transparency prompt is required because Least does not link your data across other apps or services.

🌍 A Smarter Way to Save

Perfect for families, students, and budget-conscious shoppers.

Great for tracking price changes and understanding inflation trends.

Empowering local communities to shop sustainably and save collectively.

💬 Example Use Case

You’re planning a weekly grocery run. Add your 10 staple items — milk, bread, eggs, detergent, cereal, and more — and Least instantly shows:

“Shoprite: R352.40 | Pick n Pay: R374.90 | Woolworths: R417.10”

In one tap, you see which store gives you the biggest overall savings — and can even save your basket for future comparisons.

🏆 Why It’s Different

Unlike typical price apps that only show one product at a time, Least compares total shopping experiences — helping you make smarter, holistic choices that reflect real-world spending.

Our goal is simple: help South Africans spend less, live better, and stay informed in an ever-changing market.
