## Description

PrepsFinder helps you compare prices for preparedness, long-term, and camping food across specialty retailers in one search—so you can see who has the better deal on items like chili mac, freeze-dried beef, or #10 cans.

Stores searched:
• Mountain House
• Wise Foods
• ReadyWise
• Be Prepared (Emergency Essentials)
• Augason Farms
• Valley Food Storage
• Legacy Food Storage
• Survival Frog
• The Ready Store
• Amazon
• Walmart

How to use:
1. Open PrepsFinder and type a product (for example “chili mac” or “ground beef”).
2. Review one matching offer per store when available.
3. Results are ranked by estimated unit or serving value when pack size appears in the title.
4. Tap View to open the product on the retailer’s site.
5. Search history is saved only on your device.

Notes for users and reviewers:
• Specialty brands are queried via their public search APIs; Amazon and Walmart via search pages.
• Long phrases may match shorter catalog terms automatically (e.g. “canned ground beef” → “ground beef” / “beef”).
• If a store has no match or blocks access, PrepsFinder shows that clearly instead of inventing a price.
• Prices and shipping vary; always confirm on the retailer’s checkout page.
• No PrepsFinder account. History stays in Firefox local storage and is not sent to a PrepsFinder server.
• Not affiliated with any retailer listed.

To test: search “chili mac” or “ground beef” and confirm multiple store results, unit pricing when present, and working View links.
