When youre out shopping, you may look at a store and think, "Now how much was that item at the other place?" You guess, and try to do some math to figure out how much youre saving. How do you easily do price comparison?

Thats a thing of the past. With Simple Pricebook, you simply enter the price and it will show you comparisons in a simple manner. No "unit prices". You dont care if this item costs 7.3¢/oz and this one is 9.2¢/oz. Sure, that tells you whats cheaper, but how much are you really saving? If youre buying 10 oz, then you have a savings of 19¢. If youre buying 5 lbs, you have a savings of $1.52.

Simple Pricebook will take all of your comparisons and put them in perspective of the quantity youre looking at. So if Im looking at 2 liters of soda, it will compare against that 12 12-fl oz cans in a "2 liter" manner. It will tell me the total price of the comparison and the difference. The difference is color-coded. Green means its cheaper and red means its more expensive.

Want to just see the prices of items? Just enter the item name with no other information.

Want to see a certain quantity of an item? Just enter the item and a quantity and a comparison will be shown for you in terms of that quantity.

To delete a price, simply swipe it to the left in the results and confirm the deletion.

The clear button helps you clear out data quickly. The first time you click on it, it will clear price and quantity, the second time it will clear the item and units. So if youre entering multiple entries of the same item (e.g. Strawberries), youll click it once in between. When you move to the next item, click twice.

Simple Pricebook uses data you enter. While this means that you wont get prices automatically from all the surrounding stores, it does mean that your data stays private to you. No one is mining your data to sell you things, and only stuff thats relevant to you (because you bought it in the past) will appear as suggestions.
