Grocery IQ
The best utility apps are those that have proven themselves to be extremely functional aka time saving. Grocery IQ falls into this category by simplifying the often tedious and cumbersome task of grocery shopping.
Grocery IQ allows users to make a grocery list using its seemingly infinite database of store items. Users can enter brand, price, quantity and item location into the grocery app. If you have a partner that’s in charge of the shopping, you can even share the list via email. Our favorite features of this handy Grocery IQ app are the organization of the list by aisle and the email function. At just $1.99, we also love the price. (Editor’s Note: $1.99 is a limited time only special deal. So buy now if you want to take advantage of this deal.)
There are a couple of drawbacks. Currently Grocery IQ doesn’t have the ability to manage multiple lists. Also, it doesn’t keep track of the last time an item was purchased or allow users to customize the item’s size. Hopefully, in version 1.1 the developer will add these features.

I just actually came home from my first time using (shopping) with this app and I must say it was a pleasure to use and well worth the money.

I’ve used this application for over 2 weeks and find it powerful and at the same time very easy to use. Using the ability to reorder aisles has actually saved me time at the store. The way they handle favorites is a big time saver when building my list. I highly recommend this app and @ $1.99 how can you go wrong.

You might want to consult http://www.centsible.net/groceries.shtml for accessing prices from your local grocer. Pretty inclusive directory.

I think this app should be free. Anyone else????

I personally think 1.99 for such a well thought out app is a good price.
Its just over the price of a cup a coffee, i cant argue with that.

You “think it should be free?” You think people should not get paid for their work!
This is a great app.

It would be nice if you could create grocery lists from recipes, but other than that I like this program.
