The secret combo for healthier, cheaper grocery hauls
When it comes to grocery shopping, most of us are juggling two big priorities: saving money and eating healthier. What if we told you there’s a smarter way to do both without doubling your time or effort?
Enter: Yuka and Gofer. Two powerful apps. One seriously optimized grocery experience.
Whether you’re a label-reading health nut, a busy mom, or just trying to make your grocery dollars stretch further, combining Yuka’s nutrition scoring with Gofer’s price-slaying power gives you the best of both worlds.
What Is Yuka?
Yuka is a free app that helps you decode food and cosmetic labels. Just scan a product’s barcode and Yuka will score it on a scale of 0 to 100, factoring in:
- Nutritional quality
- Additives
- Organic status
The app then suggests healthier alternatives if the item doesn’t rank well. It’s like having a nutritionist in your pocket.
What Is Gofer?
Gofer.run is a Canadian grocery comparison app that finds the best store combinations for your grocery list, so you get what you want, for less.
Instead of just showing deals, Gofer looks at your entire list and compares prices across local stores to help you save up to 25% or more on each trip. It’s the app that answers: Where should I go to get all this for the least money?
Why Use Them Together?
Using Yuka alone helps you buy smarter. Using Gofer alone helps you spend smarter.
But together? You get:
- Cleaner groceries with fewer additives
- Healthier meals based on informed choices
- Lower prices on the exact products you want
- Zero stress in planning your weekly haul
Imagine this:
- Scan your usual breakfast cereal in Yuka → It ranks 42/100.
- Yuka suggests a better one → It ranks 85/100.
- You add the new one to your Gofer list → Gofer finds which store has it cheapest this week.
- Done. You’re healthier and richer already.
Real Life Example
Lunchbox swap:
- Old choice: Juice box (Yuka score: 25)
- New choice: Unsweetened juice (Yuka score: 83)
- Gofer price comparison: $0.89 cheaper at No Frills vs. Metro
Multiply this across your list and you’re not just eating better—you’re spending better too.
