The problem is, comparing prices across Coles, ALDI, and Woolworths can be time-consuming. One store might have cheaper fruit and vegetables, another might have a better special on pantry items, and another could work out cheaper overall for your list.

That’s where Smart Split in WiseList can help.

Instead of manually checking supermarket prices one by one, Smart Split helps you work out when it may be cheaper to split your grocery shop across multiple stores.

If you’ve ever wondered whether shopping at more than one supermarket is actually worth it, this feature is designed to make that decision easier.

What Is Smart Split?

Smart Split is a WiseList feature that helps compare your grocery list across supported supermarkets and shows when splitting your shop could help you save money.

It looks at comparable items on your list and checks whether some products may be cheaper at:

• Coles
• ALDI
• Woolworths

If a split shop works out better than buying everything from one supermarket, WiseList helps organise your grocery list into separate store-based lists.

This makes it easier to see where savings may be available without needing to compare everything yourself.

Why Grocery Price Comparison Matters

Many Australians already know that grocery prices can vary between supermarkets.

Some stores may have lower prices on fresh produce, while others may have better value on pantry staples, snacks, household items, or weekly specials.

The challenge is that most people don’t have the time to:

• check three different supermarkets
• compare item by item
• calculate the cheapest overall combination
• organise what to buy from each store

That’s why grocery comparison tools can be useful — especially for families, busy households, and shoppers trying to stay on budget.

How Smart Split Works

When you build your grocery list in WiseList, Smart Split checks comparable pricing across supermarkets.

If it finds that splitting your list could help reduce your total grocery cost, it will generate a Split by Store option.

For example:

• your milk and fruit may be cheaper at ALDI
• your cereal or pantry staples may be cheaper at Coles
• another item may work out better at Woolworths

Instead of leaving you to figure it out manually, WiseList helps break it down into a clearer shopping plan.

How to Use Smart Split in WiseList

Using Smart Split is simple.

Step 1: Update your app

Make sure you are using the latest version of WiseList.

Step 2: Open your Grocery List

Tap Grocery from the bottom menu, then tap List at the top of the screen.

Step 3: Look for the Smart Split notice

If WiseList finds a cheaper split shopping option, you will see a message that says:

“Split by store to save $xx”

This will appear below your grocery list items.

Step 4: Tap to compare your options

Tap the message to open your Smart Split results.

You’ll then be able to compare:

• the cost of shopping at one supermarket
• the cost of splitting your list across stores

Step 5: View your split shopping plan

WiseList will then show your separate store-based lists, so you can see what to buy from each supermarket.

What Does “Smart Split Total” Mean?

Smart Split Total is the estimated total cost of your grocery shop when using the split shopping option.

This gives you a quick view of how much your groceries may cost if you buy items from multiple supermarkets instead of doing the full shop in one place.

It can help you decide whether the extra stop is worth the savings.

What Does “Split Stores” Mean?

Split Stores is your store-by-store shopping breakdown.

It shows which items are best purchased from each supermarket based on available comparable pricing.

This helps make multi-store shopping easier and more organised.

Rather than scrolling through one long grocery list, you can view your shopping by store and shop more efficiently.

Benefits of Using Smart Split

1. It can help reduce your grocery bill

If some items are cheaper at different supermarkets, Smart Split can help highlight where savings may be available.

Even small weekly savings can add up over time.

2. It saves time comparing prices

Instead of switching between multiple supermarket apps or catalogues, WiseList helps bring the comparison into one place.

3. It makes split shopping easier

If you do decide to shop across more than one supermarket, Smart Split helps organise your list into store-specific checklists.

4. It can help with budgeting

Knowing your estimated total before you shop can make it easier to plan your weekly spending and stay within budget.

5. It helps you shop more intentionally

Instead of guessing which store “feels” cheaper, you can make decisions based on the grocery items on your actual list.

Why Smart Split May Not Appear

You may not always see the “Split by store to save $xx” message in WiseList.

This may happen when:

• your grocery list is currently cheapest at one store
• there are not enough comparable items in your list
• WiseList has not found a cheaper split shopping option for that particular shop

In many cases, adding more grocery items to your list may improve the comparison results.

Is It Always Worth Shopping at Multiple Supermarkets?

Not always.

While splitting your shop can sometimes reduce your total grocery cost, it may not always be the most practical option depending on:

• how far apart the supermarkets are
• how much time you have
• whether you’re doing a quick shop or a full weekly shop
• delivery or click and collect preferences

That’s why Smart Split can be useful — it gives you the information so you can decide whether the savings are worth the extra stop.

For some people, convenience may still matter more. For others, even modest weekly savings can make a real difference over time.

Who Smart Split Is Best For

Smart Split can be especially useful for:

• families managing weekly grocery budgets
• busy households
• price-conscious shoppers
• people who already shop at multiple supermarkets
• Australians looking for easier grocery comparison tools

If you regularly compare supermarket prices or try to shop specials, this feature can help make the process faster and more organised.

Shop Smarter with WiseList

Grocery shopping doesn’t need to feel like a guessing game.

If you want an easier way to compare your grocery list across Coles, ALDI, and Woolworths, Smart Split can help you see when a split shop may work out cheaper.

Instead of manually comparing prices and organising separate lists yourself, WiseList helps do the heavy lifting for you.

The next time you build your grocery list, check whether Split by Store appears — you may find a smarter way to shop and save.
