Too Good To Go – Review

What is 'Too Good To Go'?

Too Good To Go is an app that encourages shops & restaurants to sell their surplus food for a small amount of money instead of what they would usually do (chuck it in the bin). Food on the app is usually 1/3 of the real cost.

How does it work & When is the best time to buy a bag?

Too Good To Go works by teaming up with shops & restautrants to list their surplus bags on the app for people to purchase and collect at a certain time. As someone who has been using the app for over around two years, I first noticed that the next days lot would appear around 15 minutes after the collection time finished. However, in a recent update they changed it so that it tells you when tomorrow’s lot will be put on if you missed an opportunity to get a bag you wanted today.

Is it value for money?

Most definitely! Too Good To Go Magic Bags are usually quite cheap and no matter what you get it’s usually worth more than what you paid. I’ve used this app for nealy two years and saved nearly 70 Magic Bags, I’ve saved £££ in the long run. Acorrding to app I’ve saved over £450. Recently, I bought a £4.59 filled sub bag from Subway and it came with two footlongs (one filled with chicken and the other filled with ham and pepperoni) and three cookies and I’d say that what I got was worth more than what I paid but the value and what you get all comes down to what they have left at the end of the day and how much of it they have. I reckon that’s what makes the app very fun to use, the fact that it is a surprise and will always be different! Sometimes, I must say though I do get annoyed if I get vegan stuff from Gregg’s for example but nevermind, beggars can’t be choosers, I just enjoy the mystery, which is why you can argue that the app can be addictive!

Overall Verdict

If you want to help the planet and save money whilst getting a mystery and some good food then I absolutely recommend you try the app out! It’s a great idea and I think that the idea for the app is genius.
