Every tool you need to spend less.
Deal Dish turns this week's real grocery deals into your actual meals. Here's every feature that gets you there.
The four pillars
Four tools. One weekly loop.

The core four
What you'll use every week.
Flyer deals across 13 Loblaws-family banners
Deal Dish pulls in the Best Deals and Flyer Deals at your selected store and surfaces them in one feed — across 1,103 locations and 13 banners, refreshed every Thursday.
- Two dedicated sections: Best Deals (on-sale products) and Flyer Deals (products featured in this week’s flyer)
- Every product shows brand, category, original vs. sale price, and discount percent
- Swap stores any time to see the deal set for a different banner
In practice
Open the List tab on a Thursday morning and the new flyer’s deals are already live — no manual refresh, no app-hopping.
Recipes built from this week’s deals
Recipe apps that don’t know what’s on sale suggest meals you can’t afford. Deal Dish only surfaces recipes whose key ingredients are actually discounted at your selected store this week.
- Every recipe shows total cost, per-serving cost, and savings vs. regular prices at your store
- Cooking Mode gives you a full-screen, hands-busy view for when you’re at the stove
- Recipes refresh every Thursday when new flyers land
In practice
Peppers hit $2.49/lb this week at your store? Stuffed peppers and pepper stir-fry rise to the top of your feed — each with the deal baked into the cost.
One shopping list, built from your recipes
Select a recipe and Deal Dish auto-selects the ingredients that are currently on sale for that recipe and drops them into your list — one easy place to manage the whole week.
- Recipe → list: only the on-sale ingredients are auto-added, with pricing and sale status attached
- Add non-recipe items (snacks, household) from any product detail screen
- Unavailable items split into their own section so nothing gets lost
- Running count of checked vs. total items stays pinned at the top
In practice
Add a weeknight stir-fry to your plan, tap Add to list, and the on-sale peppers, chicken, and soy sauce land in your list with prices attached.
Barcode scanner for nutrition tracking
Keep nutrition tracking alive past week two. Scan a barcode and Deal Dish pulls the product from the Open Food Facts database and logs the macros to your day.
- Supports EAN-13, EAN-8, UPC-A, UPC-E, Code128, and Code39
- Calories, protein, carbs, and fat auto-fill from the database
- Pick the meal slot and serving, and it lands in your daily totals
- Manual entry saves custom items so the next scan of the same product is instant
In practice
Scan a yogurt barcode at the fridge — calories and macros fill in, you tap Breakfast, and it’s logged. No typing.
New · Dark mode
Plan day or night — without the eye strain.
Deal Dish now has a full dark theme. Every screen — deals, recipes, meal plan, shopping list, trackers — is redrawn for low light so you can plan tomorrow's meals from bed without the screen searing your retinas.
- Designed for late-night planning: softer contrasts, muted greens, no blown-out whites
- Respects your phone’s system setting by default, or toggle manually from Profile → Settings
- Every pricing color, deal badge, and chart is re-tuned for dark backgrounds — nothing looks off
In practice
Check next week's flyer deals at 11pm with the lights off — prices, savings, and recipe cards stay legible without the phone doubling as a bedside lamp.
And more
The supporting cast.
Everything you'd expect from a grocery-planning app — plus a few things you wouldn't.
Savings tracker
Log receipts after a shopping trip and Deal Dish tracks item-level savings. Filter totals by week, month, quarter, or year.
Meal planner
Plan breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, and pre- / post-workout slots for any date. Each planned meal carries its recipe’s nutrition forward.
Nutrition, water & weight
Four trackers in one place (Nutrition, Water, Weight, Savings). Calories and macros line up with your diet preset — Balanced, High-Protein, Keto, Vegan, and more.
Recipe book
Save recipes you want to come back to — 3 on free, unlimited on Pro — so last week’s winners stay easy to find.
Achievements
Unlock milestones as you cook, save, and hit nutrition goals. Optional, but the streaks are satisfying.
Friends & leaderboards
Add friends by code, set a public or private profile, and see how you stack up on the leaderboard — only if you want to.
