Too Good To Go

Firstly apols if this had already been discussed, a search revealed nothing. Also sorry if its nothing new to you but I only discovered this last week.

An app that local restaurants, supermarkets and takeaways advertise food they're going to just throw away at a greatly reduced price. I think it's a great idea to cut waste and grab yourself a bargain meal. For example, one of our local carvery does a bumper bag of a roast for £3.30. You get loads more food and it's obviously more healthy than a take away.

Anyone else used it? What were your experiences?

I live in the middle of nowhere so wouldn't be much use to me but I gotta say this is a fantastic thing if it works.

Same. There's no places close to me using this service.

Ah that's a shame, you've both tried it out? In a perfect world, every local restaurant, shop and manufacturer would be registered to the app. Our local spar shop does it for one.

It has proven handy if I'm on a night shift, or say we fancy take away and I'm willing to drive out for it.

Yeah, its the fact you have to go pick the stuff up, usually at closing time, that puts me off. I don't have the time or the inclination to travel all that way for their leftovers.

Hopefully more businesses pick up on the idea and then there will be more chance of one being nearby

Oh that's good then! I've amended my original post to reflect that supermarkets take part too
