Real examples of how you'd talk to your AI assistant with TilbudsTrolden running.

You:We're 3 people, no pork, and we shop at Netto, REMA 1000, and Meny.

The assistant saves your setup. From now on, deals from Netto, REMA, and Meny get priority, and pork recipes are excluded from meal plans.

You:Switch me to Finland. We shop at Prisma, K-Supermarket, and Lidl.

Country becomes FI, stores update, and deals now come from Finnish chains. Prices show in €/kg instead of kr/kg.

You:What's on sale at my stores this week?

You get a summary per store: expiring deals that need action, biggest savings, and highlights.

You:Find me the cheapest hakket oksekoed.

Found 6 deals for "hakket oksekød": 1. Hakket okse- eller grisekød - 99 DKK (76.15 kr/kg) @ Bilka 2. Hakket oksekød 8-12% - 36.66 DKK (91.65 kr/kg) @ Fleggaard 3. Velsmag hakket oksekød 7-10% - 45 DKK (112.50 kr/kg) @ Netto ...

You:Plan next week's dinners. No pork except Tuesday, mix of Asian and other.

You get a 7-day plan with no consecutive protein or cuisine repeats, plus a shopping list for the whole week.

Shared ingredients (like onions used in both) are aggregated. Pantry items are excluded.

Nordic grocery deals bundle products in creative ways ("Rejer, kold- eller varmroget laks"). TilbudsTrolden tells raw ingredients apart from processed products using language-specific food terminology for Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, and Finnish. Searching for "laks" as a cooking ingredient won't match roget/rokt/rokt laks or palaeg/palegg/palagg, and searching for "jauheliha" in Finland won't match savustettu makkara. Your preferred stores get priority in results.

The scoring engine uses locale-specific indicators for each country: processed meat terms (roget/rokt/rokt/savustettu), raw meat terms (fersk/fersk/farsk/tuore), non-food filters, and dietary exclusion patterns. All four languages have full coverage for pork, beef, lamb, fish, shellfish, dairy, gluten, beans, nuts, and egg exclusions.

The meal planner won't repeat the same protein or cuisine more than twice in a week, and you can restrict slow-cook recipes to specific days.

All data lives in a single JSON file:~/.tilbudstrolden.json. Override the path with theTILBUDSTROLDEN_DATAenvironment variable.

Everything lives there: household config, recipes, pantry, meal history, and spend log. Created automatically on first use. No database, no cloud service, no account required.
