Looking for feedback on grocery price tool side project

Looking for feedback on grocery price tool side project

Hi everyone, I'm looking for a few people willing to test a side project grocery price comparison app I built called Cheapr. It compares prices across Costco, TJ's, Walmart, and Safeway (right now for Mountain View locations specifically). I built it because I was tired of standing in the store and googling what was a better deal, so you can use this to more easily find out. You can compare things by unit price, and search by barcode scan or text search.

The link is https://shopcheapr.vercel.app . On iPhone, you can open it in Safari, hit the share button, and add it to your home screen, and it will work like a full app. Once you're using it, there is a feedback button at the top right you can submit to if you have any issues.

Specifically I would love to hear: did it change what store you bought something at, was anything wrong/confusing, would you keep using it? You don't need to sign up or anything, I'm just curious if this is actually useful to anyone besides me. I'd be appreciative of any feedback, comments or DMs are both welcome. Thank you.

Thrive City World Cup Watch Parties - Bike Parking?

Anyone know if the Chase Center bike valet is available during the Thrive City world cup watch parties? Was hoping to ride my bike to it but not super keen on the idea of locking it on the street. Thanks!

Commute Tips

Hi there, going to be commuting from Palo Alto up to SF starting next week. I will likely be bringing my bike as I need it to get to and from the train on either side. Wanted to ask some questions of anyone who has experience doing something similar.

I'm mainly wondering if I will be able to find space on the 507 (express) train, both for me and my bike? I'm presuming that since it's an express, it will be busier than other trains. Wondering if I should consider taking an earlier one to make it less crowded?

Any advice/experiences appreciated. Thanks.
