From Too Good To Go! Have had mixed results previously, once I got some sourdough bread, organic lamb, organic pork and lots of veg for 4 quid! But last time it was a gone off artichoke, peaches and squashy bananas. Does anyone else use it?
One bag is from the local health food shop, and one from a local cafe. Might ask for recipe suggestions later depending on what I get.

dizzyupthegirl86 · 04/07/2022 23:13

there’s a fish and chip shop one on mine… I can’t even imagine what that would be like!

There’s a Tim hortons near me but the collection time is 23:00-23:30 or something mad!

Omg! Wish I was near one.

The Gregg's ones are good

I never want to see another Greggs sandwich again. after collecting one where I was told to pick 6 rolls or sandwiches, something off the hot counter and a cake! It cost me £2.95 so I got my monies worth.
Had a lovely one from Pret for £7

Thanks for this thread. Just picked up all this lot for £3 from
Costa. With a 22 year old dustbin just back from university, this is very welcome! And will do for lunches etc tomorrow.

Mine not quite as good as that! Having said that, still a bargain for three quid. It means not having to think about lunch for a few days!

Well my first one got cancelled so that's disappointing!

TragicMuse · 05/07/2022 19:07

I got Gregg's on Sunday and we got a sandwich and TWELVE doughnuts. Different kinds, but still, a lot of doughnuts.

The teen is happy!

I find Yo Sushi get cancelled a lot and it's never as good these days as it used to be a few years ago.

No photos but got a Starbucks one and it had
Millionaires shortbread
Panini
Fake tuna sandwich
Bacon roll
S'mores brownie
Bag of ground coffee
Cookie
Toastie
Cinnamon bun

DillonPanthersFNL · 05/07/2022 19:34

DH also got one from Tim hortons and that's insane! A whole box of donuts and a box of tim bits, his colleague got a Cinnabon one and that's brilliant

DillonPanthersFNL · 05/07/2022 19:35

Oh he got a carluccios one today that he says is hilarious because it's dried pasta, biscotti, panettone, olive oil, balsamic vinegar and a big jar of stuffed peppers

EachandEveryone · 05/07/2022 19:40

Where do you live?😀

I would stay up til midnight for a Cinnabon one, but am yet to do it for Tim hortons! More of a problem is that they don’t go on sale til 00.14 every morning and sell immediately!

Bordesleyhills · 05/07/2022 19:56

Often use it- co-op good, Greggs good, M&S mixed, Morrison’s hmm, local carvery yep it’s ok. Budgens good too. London it’s amazing! Off next weekend and we eat out of too good to go

PeppaPigIsBacon · 05/07/2022 20:00

Caffè Nero cancelled my bag again.

Managed to get a Starbucks one but wasn’t nearly as impressive as the one mentioned upthread! Got three sandwiches (two chicken and one fake tuna), a vegan pastry, and a mango pot.

Snog · 05/07/2022 22:18

Costa cancelled my bag today but not until I had arrived to pick it up. Really annoying. So far I've booked two bags (today and yesterday) and both have been cancelled. Is it worth trying again or are most bags actually cancelled?

redbigbananafeet · 05/07/2022 22:34

First M&S/BP tonight. A fancy felafel and humus salad (&6). A chicken and bacon pasta salad, a chicken and bacon Caesar wrap, a tub of fresh mango chunks and a bag of gala apples. A lovely big lunch for 2 tomorrow for £4. Pretty good I think!

DillonPanthersFNL · 05/07/2022 22:59

@Snog no! Try again! Maybe 1/20 is cancelled

dizzyupthegirl86 · 05/07/2022 23:18

I’ve only had two cancelled I think - greggs and a local cafe near me.
the latest app update tells you how many bags you’ve saved….I’m on 52 🤦🏼‍♀️
