Our mission
Smart Cart Savings exists to replace guesswork with practical guidance. We publish research driven tutorials that explain how fees work, how to combine retailer deals with in app coupons, and how to decide whether memberships like Instacart Plus make sense for your household.
Editorial standards
- We cite official help pages and terms when discussing rules and fees.
- We show examples as education, never as promises. Readers should confirm totals in their own carts.
- We keep copy readable, mobile first, and accessible for all users.
- We correct mistakes quickly and note material changes.
Team and credentials
Our editorial team has tracked grocery pricing and delivery promotions since 2017. We combine consumer advocacy with hands on testing across multiple cities. We do not sell data. We do not charge for basic guidance.
