The ‘Too Good to Go’ app was launched back in 2016 in a bid to reduce the amount of food that goes to waste each day. The scheme has worked well and become very popular, with over 200 million meals saved from going to waste by March this year.
Having never used it before, I decided I would give it a go to see what deals I could find. After downloading the app, I started to have a look at what was on offer nearby. What is quite cool is you can change your location to suit where you are at the time, so if you’ve decided to work from home one day you can set the location to your new area.
I found that the app itself was actually pretty easy to use and navigate around, which is helpful as there are so many places to choose from. Scrolling through I wanted to find the best deal I could and it wasn’t long until I found one that was rated 4.7 out of 5 and only cost £4.95- not bad.

The best deal on the app was from Eat A Pitta in St Nicks Market, I’d never tried their food before but having always been intrigued to see what it was like. I arrived at the place during the collection time and followed the steps on the app to collect my order. The bag was pretty heavy, and looking inside I was surprised at how much I had been given, especially considering I spent less than £5.
In my bag I got a pot with 11 falafels and then three more pots all stuffed to the brim with salad, couscous, chillies and hummus - it looked delicious.
Once I got home with my food, I plated it all up and dug in. I was honestly pretty surprised at how much I liked the falafels, as I said I’d never tried them before so I was slightly apprehensive, but they were gorgeous and the salad and hummus tasted so fresh as well. I was really happy with what I got, it wasn’t too expensive and it gave me a healthy dinner.
As someone who has never used the app before, I will definitely be using it again and would highly recommend it to others. Everyone should use this app.
