Foodhero 50% Off Grocery Discount App Review, Life in canada

Estimated reading time: 6 minutes

Would you download a new mobile app that could save Canadians money on groceries if I told you about it?

Of course, you would because Canadian Budget Binder is about frugal living, and there’s nothing wrong with buying food at a last-minute reduced cost.

Did you know that we waste $29 billion yearly in Canada because of food date label confusion?

Due to this uncertainty, over $31 billion worth of food needlessly ends up in Canadian landfills.

The Foodhero App Is A Must For Canadians

I was alerted to the Foodhero app by a CBB reader who knew we conveyed grocery savings to our community.

She wanted to share her feedback on the app so I could investigate and possibly share it with all of you.

The new Foodhero grocery savings platform is a well-organized app.

When you log in to the Foodhero app, you will see the closest Sobeys grocery store to your home.

I love how all the items are categorized, not just a long list like other applications.

Foodhero also allows you to select dietary preferences regarding items you see.

The whole customer experience, from the app to pick-up, is terrific from beginning to end.

Grocery Savings For Canadians With The Foodhero App

Since this blog started, grocery savings have been a massive part of why many readers have landed on CBB.

With a list of over 300 grocery-saving blog posts for Canadians, it pleases me to share my review of the Foodhero app.

Pros: Foodhero App

• Includes a time when the Foodhero app will update
• It is a very organized app, which makes it easy to follow
• Filter to sort products by price, best deals, and expiration dates.

Cons: Foodhero App

• $1.79 service fee on every order, no matter how much you spend or save. (although it’s under a con, we must remember that the app needs to earn money to pay people to keep it running.
• Currently, I only see Sobeys sharing deals. We don’t have a Sobeys, but we do have Metro. I look forward to more of the available stores posting deals.

What Is The Foodhero App About?

FoodHero is the app that brings merchants and consumers together to sell surplus food that would otherwise end up in landfills.

FoodHero bridges the gap between these two groups with its easy-to-use marketplace-based platform.

So, the creators of the Foodhero app are the middlemen who help us and the grocery stores (merchants) save money and fight food waste.

It’s not a new business concept, as the FlashFood App is massive in Canada and the USA.

Everyone who partakes in the service and downloads the app is part of the food waste solution we desperately need in Canada.

Not only that, but groceries are beyond expensive, and Canadian families struggle to put food on the table, further putting strain on the already overwhelmed Food Banks.

How Foodhero Combats Food Waste

We help rescue food like surplus stock, items nearing their best-before dates (that are still perfectly safe), produce that isn’t “pretty” enough for the shelves, items with damaged (but still safely sealed) packaging, prepared meals that need to sell quickly and more.

FoodHero empowers food merchants to quickly and easily track and sell these perfectly safe and delicious food items by connecting them with consumers who can enjoy amazing deals on groceries and restaurant meals. – Foodhero FAQ

How Foodhero Works For Canadians

• Take advantage of daily deals
• Collect your saved food in-store

Thousands of discounted items are added every day at 10 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. (psst: did you know that most of the fresh foods on the platform are frozen, so you can eat them up to three months after your purchase?)

Where Is Foodhero Available In Canada?

Foodhero is available across Canada at the local Sobeys, Co-op, Foodland, IGA, Marche Tradition, Metro, and Metro Plus.
