What is Weeknight Win?

Weeknight Win is a free grocery delivery price comparison tool. Build a basket of staples and we instantly show all-in totals — subtotal, fees, and suggested tip — at Walmart+, Instacart-Whole Foods, Instacart-Aldi, and Amazon Fresh side by side. The site also includes a free meal planner with 600+ recipes if you want to plan a week of dinners around what you're buying.

Is Weeknight Win really free?

Yes. The price comparison tool requires no signup and has no email gate. The meal planner is also free; sign-up is only required if you want to save recipes and persist your grocery list. The site is supported by an Instacart affiliate partnership when you choose to checkout there for delivery.

How accurate are the prices in the comparison tool?

Each price is anchored to a real source: BLS monthly retail food price surveys, Aldi's weekly digital ad, Whole Foods' Amazon-hosted product pages, and manually-audited Walmart prices. Each item shows a verified · X days ago badge so you know how fresh the data is. Fees and tip estimates use each service's posted fee schedule, region-adjusted via your zip.

Which grocery delivery service is cheapest?

It depends on your basket. For a typical 12-item weekly basket in NYC: Instacart-Aldi $45.30, Walmart+ $51.29, Amazon Fresh $58.87, Instacart-Whole Foods $71.54. Instacart-Aldi is usually the cheapest for standard staples; Walmart+ wins on bigger baskets ($75+) where its free-over-$35 delivery threshold kicks in. Use the tool to check your specific basket.

Do I need an account to use the price comparison tool?

No. The comparison tool works without signup. You only need an account if you want to save recipes, plan a week of meals, or persist a shopping cart across sessions.

How is this different from a meal kit like HelloFresh?

Meal kits charge $80-$200 a week to ship pre-portioned ingredients. We don't ship anything — we tell you which delivery service is cheapest for what you actually want to buy, then send your list to your service of choice. Average savings: ~$26 per weekly basket just by picking the right service.

The Denver grocery scene

Denver's grocery market is dominated by King Soopers (Kroger's Colorado brand), Safeway, and Whole Foods. Sprouts has strong Denver presence and competes effectively with Whole Foods on organic produce. Sam's Club and Costco serve bulk shoppers. Aldi has zero Denver metro stores as of 2026 — Colorado is another Aldi gap, similar to Washington state. Walmart+ covers metro Denver broadly and is the de facto cheap delivery option.

What we recommend for Denver

Walmart+ is consistently competitive in Denver. Without strong Aldi coverage, Walmart+ usually takes the cheapest spot.

Without Aldi, Walmart+ is the cheapest broadly-available delivery service in Denver. Sprouts via Instacart is the best premium-but-affordable option — typically 20-25% below Whole Foods for comparable organic items.

West Urban pricing tends to run about 8% above the US average. That regional adjustment is built into the totals above.
