Mysupermarket closing - alternatives?

Hi everyone, do not despair, you can download an app called comparasaurus which compares all the major supermarkets.

Well I've just downloaded it, and whilst it's a good starting point it's no way as useful as MySupermaket because the product listing is much smaller. But much better than nowt.

Its a great opportunity for the people behind this app.  I hope they are interested enough to develop it.

Why would they continue to develop Comparasaurus when they could buy Mysupermarket?

Well it does explain why Tesco felt free to bang up the prices of 2 items (that's all I checked as they weren't cheap) so that they were 22% & 33% more than Asda.  Even the Co-op without being a special price was 25% cheaper than Tesco.  That never happens unless it is a special offer!  I wonder how many more are going to take advantage.  I bet Tesco wished they'd waited until they could blaim coronavirus rather than blaiming brexit!

Such a shame, I used it a lot.  Did anyone in here pay for the app?

Is this forum thread accurate? Just tried mysupermarket.co.uk and it still works as good as always. It is now 2nd March, the day after the site was supposed to close??

Really gutted by this. But the writing was on the wall when the app became unusable due to relentless add pop-ups.
Surely someone can make this profitable though? I'm going to miss sort by price per unit.

Has anyone seen any mention of this in any of the newspapers?
