Questions and answers

Aanbiedingenweek puts every offer from this week's and next week's shop folders in the Netherlands in one list — not only groceries but drugstore, household and discount-store deals too. You can search it in English or Dutch, filter by shop and category, keep a watch list of the products you buy and see what a product cost in earlier weeks.

It is free, has no adverts and needs no account. See the current offers.

Seventeen shops:

• Albert Heijn (the AH Bonus folder), Jumbo, Lidl, Dirk, ALDI and PLUS — supermarkets
• Kruidvat — drugstore
• Action, HEMA, Xenos, Zeeman and Wibra — household and discount stores
• Bol.com — online shop
• Yasam, Bazaar, Istanbul Supermarkt and Basismarkt — halal supermarkets

Every morning, around 07:30 Amsterdam time. The time of the last update is at the top of the offers page. A shop week runs from Monday to Sunday.

For Albert Heijn, Jumbo, Lidl, Dirk, ALDI, PLUS, Kruidvat, Action, HEMA, Xenos, Zeeman, Wibra and Bol.com they come from the shops' own weekly folders, as published on allefolders.nl. For the halal shops they come from the offers each shop posts on its public Facebook page: the text of the post and the prices printed on the flyer pictures.

A price read from a picture is only shown when two separate readings of it agree. Otherwise the offer says price not read and you can open it to look at the flyer yourself. The Sources page shows when each shop was last checked.

Yes. Shops change offers, a folder can differ per region, and a price read from a flyer picture can be misread — those are marked OCR. Always check the price at the shop before you buy.

Found a mistake? Open the product and press Report a wrong price, or use the contact form.

No. Only offers in the public folder that everyone gets are included — not personal discounts, loyalty-card deals or coupons that only show in a shop's own app.

No. It is an independent, free overview. The shops' names belong to their owners, and nothing here is paid for by a shop.

The page shows everything you can still buy this week and what is coming next week, so you can plan your shopping. The dates are on every offer. Offers that have ended leave the list; a product's page still shows them for two weeks.

Yes. Every product has its Dutch name from the folder and an English translation, and the search looks in both — kaas and cheese find the same products. It also looks in the shop and category names. To read the whole site in Dutch, press NL at the top of any page.

The Halal meat shops only switch shows only the offers from Yasam, Bazaar, Istanbul Supermarkt and Basismarkt, which sell halal meat. Their offers also carry a green Halal label. Show halal shop offers.

The label is about the shop, not a certificate for each product — ask the shop if you need to be sure.

Yes. Tap any offer to open its page: it shows a chart and a table of that product's offers at that shop, including those that ended in the last two weeks, and similar products from other shops.

The folders do not always give them. Many offers come without a category, Action's folder has no old prices or percentages, and deals like 1+1 gratis or 2e halve prijs are often only in the product picture.

Tap the ★ on any offer to add the product to your watch list. The My items view then shows whether it is on offer right now, or its last offer. The Similar view finds the same kind of product at other shops and brands — so watching one cheese finds cheese offers everywhere. You can also type words to watch, such as coffee.

Your watch list is kept in this browser only — we never see it. To move it, open Watch list, press Export file (or Copy JSON), and on the other device use Import file (or Paste JSON).

• Android (Chrome): open the offers page, then tap Install app at the top, or the ⋮ menu → Install app / Add to Home screen.
• iPhone and iPad (Safari): tap the Share button → Add to Home Screen.
• Computer (Chrome or Edge): click Install app at the top of the page, or the install icon at the right of the address bar.

It then opens in its own window with its own icon, and long-pressing the icon goes straight to your watch list.

Partly. Once installed or opened before, the app shows the offers and photos it last loaded, so you can look at your list in a shop with no signal. New offers need a connection.

No and no. Aanbiedingenweek is free, has no adverts and no sign-up.
