I've been doing a bit of a pantry clear out this year and have been trying to minimise what I am buying at the shops. You're videos are keeping me inspired!
Aw, I'm really glad that they're helping you 🤗 I understand the demotivated feeling, I'm struggling with next week's meal plan, but comments like this help me too! Thank you! 🙏
I use Olio more for giving away food than getting food. It's quite handy if I have a few bits that the kids have decided they won't eat and I can give them away rather than throwing away x
As a volunteer with Olio, i would say keep an eye on it. I often end up with lots that people havent requested ao its not like you would always be taking from someone who needs it.
Oh really, I would have just assumed it would all go. I have looked on the app locally, and it often goes fairly fast. I think it's a lovely thing you're doing ☺️
@@Withinabudget often there is so much bread and veggies that there aren't collected. I haven't bought bread in about 2 years at this stage. You could always message a local volunteer and see if they have stuff that doesn't get requested.
New subbie, great video, I’m very much a use what I have and try to spend as little as possible on groceries, Olio is great, I’ve been a food waste hero since Olio was first introduced 😊
Thanks for subscribing 🙏 Absolutely, I hate waste, and if it helps reduce the grocery bill, then it is even better. That's lovely of you. It wouldn't work without people like you 🙏 I can imagine it to be a bit time-consuming 😊

That's a lovely thing to do 😊 I've never actually used the app, but I think it's such a good idea 💡 x
It's a really good app, when i first went on it years ago there weren't many people on it, now there's loads which is great x
It definitely seems good looking at it. I see people offer household items now too.
Could listen to you talk all day xx
Thank you! I'm telling my lot that because I'm sure they turn off when I start talking 😉🤣
