I agree 100% that a price list is one of the best tools to helping save money on groceries. I would be lost without mine! And digital is definitely the way to go. I wrote a very detailed post on my blog about how to make a digital price list. I love having it with me whenever I see a great new price! http://quickeasycheaphealthy.com/2011/12/making-a-price-list-the-digital-version/

Definitely go digital with your price book! I use the PriceMouse iPhone app. It keeps track of prices and automatically does unit price comparisons. http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/pricemouse/id478069989?mt=8
