I've been living off loss-leader deals in food delivery apps, stuff like 95% off hotdogs with free delivery straight to my door. So many wagies out there treating me like a king because they think I'll start spending money any second now. This is what living in a post-scarcity society is about.Does this happen in your country?
What apps do you use

>>220850380>stuff like 95% off hotdogs with free delivery straight to my doorDamn. I've strongly opposed grubhub like delivery services, but I didn't know. Still want the least amount of people possible handling my food.
>>220850380I do something unimaginable to zoomers, I go grocery shopping on Saturday mornings when the grocery store opens at 08:00 and I target only "short best-before date" items. Usually 30-50% off, sometimes more. Basically all my savings on my account comes from avoiding full price stuff. Been doing it for over a decade. And as a bonus, the only people in the store that early are pensioners. Literal 65+ year old boomers moving in slow motion.
>>220853733>I target only "short best-before date" items.>Usually 30-50% off, sometimes more.Is it the same set of foods that are being cycled out or just whatever is a bargain? I mean do you routinely pick up meat and good vegetables or is that rarer?
>>220854047Basically Saturday and Sunday is the "empty out the old stock" days here in Sweden when grocery stores try to get rid of all their old stuff before it goes bad so they can restock with new stuff on Monday so it's the same stuff just cheaper. And it's pretty much everything. Veggies, meat, fish, condiments, bread..Whatever is getting close to end of date is put on sale with a big discount. Vegetables, bread and meat usually have the largest discounts. And (at least at my local store) they tag those items with red price stickers over the normal white one. And there's always a couple freezers and shelves with nothing reduced price items as well in the middle of the store.
>>220854403>nothing reduced"nothing but"
>>220854403Sounds nice although I do like fresh crisp vegetables. And fresh meat. As long as it's not wilted or rotting, I guess.
>>220854481Yeah with veggies you kinda have to give everything a good inspection but other than that it's fine. The stuff I avoid is bread. Nothing beats fresh bread.
>>220850380Ok
