TIL my grocery store's app has a 'manager's special' map for meat

I was trying to cut our weekly food bill and noticed the store's own app has a section that shows exactly which discounted meat is on clearance and where it's located in the cooler. I tried it last Tuesday and got a $12 pack of chicken thighs for $4.50 because it was close to the sell-by date. Does anyone else use their store's app for this, or is there a better trick for finding those deals?

My local store only marks that stuff down on Wednesday mornings. You found a map that actually shows the real time location in the cooler? That is a game changer they are hiding from us.

Honestly, that seems like a lot of work just to save a few bucks. I just freeze the regular stuff I buy, and @grayt46 has a point about the timing being tricky anyway. It's clever, but not exactly life changing.
