Ratings and reviews

It WAS great and the concept is great. I had several orders and went to order something today for $3.10 and they want a $1.79 per order service fee. My store never has more than 10 items and often only one or two I'm interested in, so if I have to pay $1.79 extra for an item then there is often no savings. So much for your no food waste altruism. I think I'll stick to Flash Foods.

Great idea, executed pretty well! I use it for burgers and steaks. I kinda wish there was a search function to show all the places a certain cut of meat is available. Having said that, the 'Meat & Poultry' selector does the trick. When it first came out, there was a bit of a learning curve for the consumer and the staff. Now, it's pretty seemless.

I have used this app to save on meats 3 times now with my local co-op. The notices were easy to set up. The app itself is easy to navigate. I had no problems setting up favourite stores. Once I had my payment entered, the timer for buying was no problem. All in all, great product that consistently saves me money!
