A journalist has revealed the impressive contents of a Greggs Too Good To Go bag, which she purchased for just £3.15 and found to contain items worth nearly £20.
Abigail Nicholson, a content editor for Reach PLC, decided to try the app after seeing numerous social media posts showcasing generous hauls. She ordered her bag from a Greggs in Wirral, Merseyside, and collected it an hour later at 4pm.
The bag contained seven items, including a honey roast ham and egg salad sandwich (£3.90), a tuna crunch baguette (£3.90), four jam doughnuts (£3.45), a cream-filled doughnut (£1.40), a currant bun (£1.50), overnight oats (£2.90) and a bacon and cheese turnover (£2.40). The total value was £19.45.
Nicholson said she was delighted with the haul, noting that the sandwiches were fresh and tasty. She added that the experience was straightforward and that she would definitely use the service again.
Too Good To Go is an app that allows customers to buy surplus food from cafes, restaurants and shops that would otherwise be thrown away, reducing food waste.
