Save Recipes to Springpad and Save on Your Grocery Bill
With the latest update to Springpad we introduced local deals on recipe ingredients, giving you another reason to save recipes to Springpad.
Here’s how it works:
- Save a recipe to Springpad (use the Springpad Clipper to spring a recipe from any website)
- Open the recipe on the web app at Springpad.com
- Scroll down to the section below the ingredients and directions
- Find a list of sales at your local grocery store for the items on your ingredient list
It’s that easy! Learn more about using Springpad for Recipes.
Pro Tip: We’ll also show you deals on any checklist that you create from a recipe. When viewing a recipe on the web app, just scroll down and choose “Add ingredients to shopping list”, to create a checklist from any recipe!

Ashley says: I have attempted to find this information on multiple recipes, but the only information below the ingredients and directions is wine pairing suggestions. Any suggestions?

Hi Ashley, Are the recipes manually entered or did you clip them from a recipe site? Does this feature work on any recipes you save?
Gary says: Thank you I noticed and it may be helpful.
Two suggestions.
1. Include notifications of when items on sale. Would be best and probably more difficult when those items on sale exceed a certain percentage of all items in the recipe.
2. Include not only sale items, but local availability of items. I often find it difficult to easily find many specialty items (especially healthy and/or seasonal items) locally.
Gary says: Thank you – I like it.
A few suggestions:
1. Notifications when items come on sale for the recipes. The only way I find out at a later time a recipe includes items on sale is to go through all my recipes. This is my largest notebook.
2. Show item availability locally. If an item is specialty, healthy or seasonal in some case I have to call each store in my area to see if they carry it, then they take forever at the larger stores to check. Very difficult to find them online. This should be a good marketing method for stores. Good examples just this week include; broccoli rabe, baby bok choy, mirin, fresh sage, fresh ginger, smoked paprika, and in general many fresh herbs, cannellini beans.
3. May seem more difficult, but actually should be only an hour work with any good Data Analyst, is to include alerts for when a high percentage of all ingredients are on sale and/or available in an area.
Again, a great idea and good implementation.
