Aktionsfinder is offline: the alternative for your weekly shop
Since 31 May 2026, aktionsfinder.at has been offline. Instead of flyers, the site now says (in German): "Aktionsfinder is out of operation from 31 May 2026 until further notice due to a revision." It gives no date for a return. If you used Aktionsfinder to find this week's deals, you need another way now. The short answer: look up the deals for the items on your list, not every flyer. That is what mitbringen does for Hofer, Lidl, Spar and Billa.
mitbringen compares your list across Hofer, Lidl, Spar and Billa. You still read the unit-price tag on the shelf.
What happened to Aktionsfinder
- Offline since 31 May 2026. The website shows a maintenance page; the operator's stated reason is a "revision" (Überarbeitung).
- No end date. "Until further notice" means it is open whether and when Aktionsfinder comes back. The page does not say it has been shut down for good.
- Who is behind it: Österreichische Post took a majority stake (60%) in Aktionsfinder GmbH in 2015. The maintenance page's imprint links to post.at.
Which alternative fits you?
It depends on what you used Aktionsfinder for.
- You like paging through flyers, including electronics, drugstore or furniture retailers: then you want another flyer viewer, such as Marktguru or wogibtswas. mitbringen is not that.
- You want to know where the things on your shopping list are cheap this week: you no longer need to page through a flyer for that. That is mitbringen's job.
How mitbringen replaces Aktionsfinder for the weekly shop
mitbringen is a shopping list for Vienna that lays this week's flyer deals over your list.
- Write your list: milk, coffee, butter — just like on paper.
- See the deals: for each item, mitbringen shows where it is on offer right now — at Hofer, Lidl, Spar, Billa and Billa Plus.
- Plan the shop: you decide whether a second store is worth it or you stick with one.
The difference from a flyer viewer: you don't search for the deal and hope it's on your list. You start with the list and see the deals that match it. What that looks like in detail: Aktionsfinder Austria: this week's deals for your list.

What mitbringen can't do
To be honest, so you don't switch for the wrong reason:
- No flyer to page through. You see prices for your items, not flyer pages.
- Grocery chains only. Hofer, Lidl, Spar, Billa and Billa Plus. No dm, no Bipa, no electronics or furniture flyers.
- Built for Vienna. The deals come from the chains' current flyers; stores and prices are for Vienna.
A deal is not the same as cheap
A "-25%" in a flyer is not yet a good price. For different pack sizes, compare the unit price (€/kg, €/l): Compare unit prices. And if you want to know which chain is cheaper on average for the whole basket: Cheapest supermarket: Hofer, Lidl, Spar or Billa.
Frequently asked questions
Does Aktionsfinder still exist?
Not at the moment. According to its own maintenance page, aktionsfinder.at has been "out of operation until further notice due to a revision" since 31 May 2026. The page gives no date for a return.
What is a good Aktionsfinder alternative for grocery shopping?
If you mainly want to know where the items on your shopping list are on offer this week, mitbringen is an alternative. It lays the flyer deals from Hofer, Lidl, Spar, Billa and Billa Plus over your list instead of making you page through every flyer.
Does mitbringen show flyers to page through?
No. mitbringen is not a flyer viewer. It shows this week's deals for the items on your list. If you want to page through whole flyers, you need a flyer viewer for that.
Which supermarkets does mitbringen cover?
Hofer, Lidl, Spar, Billa and Billa Plus in Vienna. Drugstores like dm and Bipa and non-food retailers are not included.
