flashfood app saves big on groceries

My local RCSS is selling fruit boxes on flash food app for $5 that weigh about 4-5 lbs. I do not buy those fruit boxes and I don't understand how they can sell them like that.

Yeah agree with Arjon those boxes look super stingy. Not worth it

I did not know that. Flash food used resell items from RCSS under RCSS roof so that affects their image. I don't buy from that particular location but it definitely leaves me with a bad opinion on RCSS.

To be fair, RCSS does not set prices. They transfer the food to FlashF, who then set the price.

I thought I saw a news item last week that Tim Hortons has joined the app?
Sorry, wrong app-it's for Too Good to Go:https://globalnews.ca/news/9980282/t...ood-waste-app/

The stores that participate with flash food near me have started to freeze most of the meat prior to selling on the app. Works out good for most of the tray pack items but makes it very difficult for alot of the items that are club pack to divide into more suitable sizes

The RCSS where I shop most often now freezes meat while only taking 30% off the full price. Not what I call a deal since even 50% off can be above the price I pay when the item is on sale and isn't already at it's best by date.
