Is that grocery “sale” actually a deal?
Lowtein checks this week's grocery prices — meat, fish, dairy, produce and pantry staples — against an independent benchmark: the government's published average where one exists, and every price's own week-by-week history. So you can see what's genuinely below the typical price, not just what's wearing a “sale” sticker. Canada · US · Australia · UK. Free, no login.

Why Lowtein
- Every price is graded against an independent benchmark — Statistics Canada in Canada, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics in the U.S., and a cross-retailer comparison in Australia and the UK — never a store's own “sale” claim.
- We track every price week over week — so the site can tell you when something is below its usual price, or the lowest we've tracked in months: a real stock-up moment.
- Every price links back to the retailer, so you can verify any deal yourself.
- No account, no list to fill out — it loads straight to your city's deals.
