It's definitely helpful for my low-income family, but not enough to make a noticeable difference. At least where I am, there is very rarely much available on flashfood. I did fill my freezer with bread today from it though.

Looking into it a bit more, the ability to choose what to get definitely makes it seem more useful. I hope more stuff becomes available for you.

Too Good To Go has always been more or less a blind bag of whatever was expiring that day equal to approx 3X the value you pay (though some places give way more). We did use it for a local bakery specializing in breads, and that was awesome and easier to plan around.
