Cofounder of Honey here. Thanks for hunting it @jtriest.
We built Milk because we spend a lot of money on groceries and it sucks to know that we're leaving money on the table by not using coupons. Happy to answer any questions.

@ketau@jtriest Vons & Ralph's in the screenshots - LA locals?
This is fantastic. Forgive my ignorance, but how are you guys able to get access to users' rewards card accounts and add these coupons? I wasn't aware rewards card providers allowed 3rd parties to do that.
@gemusan If you're ever in NY I'd be glad to! I assumed there was some sort of public API I wasn't aware of, but there's clearly more going on than that :)
@chrismessina We're much too lazy to scan receipts so we made sure the savings process is drop dead simple. The grocery coupons are "clipped" to your store rewards card and the savings are automatically applied at the register during checkout.
@JeremyZ123 Milk supports ~20,000 retail locations right now, with another 20,000 coming soon. We're adding new stores weekly so the list will change but here's the latest from this morning:
- Baker's
- Carrs-Safeway
- City Market
- Dillons
- Fred Meyer
- Fry's
- Gerbes
- JayC
- King Soopers
- Kroger
- Owen's
- Pavillions
- Pay Less
- QFC
- Ralphs
- Randalls
- Safeway
- Smith's
- Tom Thumb
- Vons
Coming soon:
- Dollar General
- Publix
- Walgreens
- Righted
- Food Lion
@danlev@JeremyZ123 We have a bunch of supported stores pending approval by Apple for the new update. So the best way to keep an accurate list is in the app. We'll add the list to the website when it doesn't change quite as often.
This is awesome (if it works as advertised). I've been a long-time user of Honey's Chrome extension, which automatically searches for and applies coupons to various only merchants like GoDaddy, Newegg, etc.
What do retailers think of this, @gemusan / @ketau?
@rrhoover@ketau Thx. We're going to make sure it works as advertised!
Milk makes grocery coupons so easy that we're introducing this consumer behavior to a whole new (much bigger) demographic. More people using coupons = more revenue and loyalty for grocery stores = more opportunity for CPGs to shape consumer behavior.
