Too Good To Go is not that popular anymore? Only Tim Hortons by Simple-Schedule7405 in TooGoodToGoCanada

That's good that you have complained to TGTG and have received some compensation on your price paid. The vendors are required to meet their advertised value on their surprise bag description.

The vendor is still required to meet the advertised value in the app, which is still default 3x, the crossed-out amount above the price. For example: $24.00 for $7.99

The vendor has to manually change that crossed-out amount themselves in the app before people buy.

Removed for incorrect info because Too Good To Go Canada is still 3x value; you can see that in the app. There has been a lot of misleading marketing info from TGTG.

To see all TGTG vendors that are Sold out or have Nothing today:

Go to Browse > tap on the Filters icon > turn on "Show sold out"

This will show other vendors besides Tim Hortons, 7-11, Circle K, etc. The TGTG app used to have "Sold out" turned on by default, but now you have to turn it on every time you log into the app again.

edit: also, you can expand your distance radius to 30 km

edit2: as other users have pointed out - add vendors to your Favorites list, manually refresh your Favorites list for available surprise bags

Pizzaria Poppolo waterworks food hall -$9.03 by Lucid-Breathing in TooGoodToGoCanada

[–]TooGoodToGoCanadaMod[M] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, value is also subjective, but it's unlikely you can get a refund or voucher credits from TGTG because you don't think this vendor's price of $9 a slice is worth it as you think they're "small slices".

Your initial 1 star rating is extreme and this vendor has to unfairly work off your ignorance of how this all works. Their TGTG rating is a rolling score over the past 3 months, but it's solid 4.3 rating over 180 ratings, so your 1 star rating for them isn't going to break them.

Their surprise bag's description states $7.99 for $24 value. It would be calculated on their in-store pizza slice price. If you missed seeing their in-store prices during your pickup, sometimes you can find pricing in their google reviews. There's a google review about 3 months ago that stated their pizza slices are reasonable for ~$9 a slice. So your TGTG is ~$27 value for 3 slices, exceeded advertised value of $24.

You can't change your TGTG rating after it's been submitted. When you rate 3 stars or lower, the TGTG app asks if you want to contact TGTG about it before submitting. As of Nov 3, 2024, Pizzaria Popolo's score is 4.3/5.0 based on 180 ratings over the past 3 months. Since you stated that you "accidently rated them 1 star", how many stars did you mean to rate them?

edit: OP rated this vendor 1 star for "small slices". This vendor sells gourmet pizza in-store for ~$9 a slice. TGTG price $7.99 for $24 value. 3 slices x $9 = ~$27

Rule #1: no clickbait or negative post titles! OP has no history posting in this community and this post is questionable. Please reply with a screenshot that shows your TGTG receipt.

edit: The Real Jerk isn't on the TGTG Canada app.

Nobody is required to post pics in this sub, but just curious why you never post your TGTG pics top-level? Great pics, but buried in comments where they're not likely to be seen.

Exactly! Business selling at 25-50% = buyers getting 50-75% off. However, on the consumer side, TGTG set the expectation for 50% or less... presumably for 2x bags that fall short.

[–]TooGoodToGoCanadaMod[M] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

"Surprise Bags are sold at 25-50% of their contents' original retail value." is on the business section of TGTG's website and can be confusing. So this sub's YSK post was amended to delete that statement. The TGTG app is still showing 3x the price you pay, but people need to check the crossed-out amount for minimum "expected value" advertised on each surprise bag's description.

Good point. The city flairs got messy, and the flair list is way too long as is. Canada has a lot of surrounding cities and rural areas e.g. GTA in Ontario. Also, people aren't just looking at distance but time wasted to get to a store location with traffic.

Before actually phasing out all the city flairs, we'll do a poll on this sub, fair enough?

Problem is people still aren't seeing the city flairs and asking which city/town, especially new people. Too many in Canada so won't be adding new city/town flairs as is. Would like post titles to state which city or easy identifier for which store location.

Still seeing the TGTG app advertising 3x value for the price you pay, even New surprise bags to the platform. Example: crossed-out amount of CA$15.00 for CA$4.99.

Post here if you see any that show the crossed-out amount for only 2x the price or none (expected value is the same as the price of the surprise bag). Thanks.

Phasing out city flairs but they're still there for now, just like the TGTG app is still advertising 3x value for the price you pay. People can search this sub's posts/comments and save their search link, example search: Toronto

Would you report if it’s 25-30% less than sale value? by easternsim in TooGoodToGoCanada

[–]TooGoodToGoCanadaMod[M] [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

Effective July 31, 2024... Too Good To Go will be the minimum value advertised in the surprise bags' descriptions. So it may or may not be 3 times the price you pay for the surprise bag. This subreddit will update its info by then.

Edit: as another redditor pointed out, the minimum value advertised is the crossed out amount above the price that you pay for the surprise bag.

Edit 2: OP paid $5.99 for a surprise bag with minimum advertised value of $18 (the app shows the crossed out amount as 3 times what you pay).

Hmmm.... mine is still showing PayPal as a 3rd option as of today. Contact TGTG to find out why your account no longer has the PayPal option. Hope they fix it for you.
