Flipp is an app that many people use every week for price matching. Here are some of the features and tips on how to use it effectively.
Firstly, download the Flipp app and sign up for it. Enter your postal code because of the Walmart price match that is Ontario wide. Use a bigger city postal code to get more variety with the flyers that you get. Pay attention to the two “notify me when” settings. The first one is item clippings are expiring soon, which notifies you when the flyer is about to expire. The second setting is the nearest store with the clippings, which notifies you when you’re close by.
The main screen of the Flipp app is the browse section, which is located at the bottom left. Switch over to the deals section to see all the hot deals for the week. You can even change the price range to get the best sales in that price range. There are many different options, such as groceries, electronics, home and garden, apparel, and accessories.
Explore the latest flyers, search for stores A to Z, and flip through every single flyer that comes up. Spend some time looking through each of them, especially if you know good prices.
The groceries option is the main one that people use. Flip through every single flyer that comes up and circle any good deals. It will then come up in your shopping list, which is a great way to price match. Each store will be in a sub with everything that you’ve selected. If you change your mind, you can always go in and uncircle it.
There are many different ways that you can search for different flyers, not just groceries. You can search for restaurants, home and garden, pharmacy, general merchandise, electronics, baby and kids, fashion, automotive, sporting goods, pets, office, specialty, and nearby.
If you don’t have time to scroll through all of the flyers, type in a search for whatever it is you want to find. For example, blueberries, bananas, etc. Once you find the best sale, circle it, and it goes straight into your shopping list.
When price matching, you need to be able to see the store, date, product, and size of the product. There’s also a cool feature where it says “last day,” so you know that the flyer is expiring tomorrow.
Once the flyers have expired, you can send them all to the garbage. Flipp also has a feature where you can sign in with Facebook, Google, or Apple and combine your list with friends. This is helpful if you’re planning a big event or grocery shopping for other people.
Overall, Flipp has saved many people a lot of money and made price matching a lot easier. If you’re looking for tips on price matching, check out the video on how to get started. Let us know if we missed anything in the comments.
