Let’s face it. Not everyone is caught up in the coupon craze. Knowing you’re not overspending is satisfaction enough for people like C.J. Remboldt. She doesn’t use coupons and never has, she said. But she likes saving, which is why one of the newest businesses in the grocery world has been her shopping companion of choice.

The Grocery Czar, owned by Marietta’s David McKeone, does the comparison shopping many don’t care to do themselves. The subscriber service compares prices on as many as 80 items, twice a week. The majority of the products are not the circular sale items. Four shoppers armed with the same grocery list head into Publix, Kroger, Walmart and Aldi twice a week. Then, McKeone does a side-by-side comparison on everything from laundry detergent and trash bags to skinless chicken breast and tomatoes.

The findings might look like this: The same brand of a 5-pound bag of red potatoes one week this month was $3.99 at Publix, $2.47 at Kroger, $3.77 at Walmart and $1.19 at Aldi. Sure, no one is going to run from store to store to save a few dollars, but you might choose the store you’ll do your shopping at that week based on which has the lowest prices on most of the items you need. And that store changes from week to week. With or without coupons, shoppers are saving.

“I was thinking that I was shopping at Walmart and getting the best deals,” said Remboldt of Roswell. “It was fascinating to me to see that that was not necessarily the case. The prices within grocery stores fluctuate so much that you can’t say one over the other is a better deal regularly.”
