Families in Des Moines are looking for a smarter way to plan meals and stick to a grocery budget. Weekly meal planning takes the daily "what's for dinner?" stress off your plate. But most plans ignore what's on sale that week. None of them tell you what the week will cost. That's the gap Forkfull fills.

Forkfull is a budget meal planner for busy families. You set what you want to spend and pick a store in Des Moines, Iowa. Forkfull reads that store's flyer for the best deals on chicken, beef, produce, dairy and pantry staples. Then it plans a week of dinners around them. You get recipes and a cart priced in whole packages, so you know the total before you go.

Because the plan is built from what's on sale, you buy what's already marked down. Because it starts from what's in your kitchen and plans cook-once-eat-twice nights, less food goes in the bin. And the savings tracker shows what the sales saved you, week after week.

Maybe you're looking for family dinner ideas in Des Moines, or trying to stretch your grocery budget. Maybe you're meal prepping for the week ahead, or just tired of wondering what to make every night. Forkfull handles it. Set your budget and preferences once, and each week starts from your last.

New flyer data is updated every week for Des Moines and across Iowa. Bookmark this page to check back for the latest grocery deals. Or set your budget in Forkfull and let us plan the week around them.
