Too Good To Go

The Too Good To Go app is a free platform that connects users with local food businesses, such as restaurants, bakeries, and grocery stores, to sell their surplus food at a reduced price through “Surprise Bags”. Users browse for available bags, reserve and pay for them in the app, and then pick them up during a specified time window, usually after closing hours. This system helps both consumers save money and businesses reduce food waste. Download the app and find local participating businesses and restaurants. Users can get a variety of food items at a significant discount, often at a third of the original price.

It is highly rated for allowing users to easily check their EBT balance, view transaction history, and lock their card for security. The app also provides access to deals, discounts, job listings, and information about other benefits.
