9-store beta: source-backed price checks across Walmart, Target, Walgreens, CVS, Publix, Kroger, Dollar General, Costco, and Winn-Dixie.

How it works

Source-backed price checks, without mystery results.

Price Scout is designed to show where a price came from, how confident the match is, and when it was checked.

The basic flow

  • Type a specific product name and ZIP code. Brand, size, count, and flavor help Scout find better matches.
  • Scout checks retailer pages and official APIs for Walmart, Target, Walgreens, CVS, Publix, Kroger, Dollar General, Costco, and Winn-Dixie.
  • Results are validated so priced results include a source link from the retailer's own domain.
  • You compare prices, open the retailer page, and confirm final price and availability before buying.

Confidence labels

A high-confidence result should be an exact or very close product match from the retailer. Medium and low confidence can mean the product name, size, count, or fulfillment details are not a perfect match.

If Price Scout cannot find a reliable source-backed price, that store is marked as unavailable instead of showing an unsourced number.

Why prices can differ

  • Prices can vary by store location, pickup, delivery, shipping, and membership status.
  • Coupons, promotions, taxes, fees, and substitutions may change the final checkout total.
  • Retailer pages can update after Price Scout checks them.
  • Online prices may not match in-store shelf prices.
