Costa vs Greggs… The Costa bag contains a lot and good variety - definitely worth the money no doubt 👏 Wow! 4 x sausage rolls fair play Greggs and other stuff good too - fantastic price! 👏
That is more like it! Those bags were amazing. The only item I would struggle with would be the Bean & Cheese Toastie; I mean what concoction is that? 😝And Ideally from Greggs I would have a Yum Yums pastry instead of the pink doughnuts.
@@GaryG1974 ha ha, you crack on Gary, I haven’t seen those videos in a while, you’ll have to let me know if I’ve got any better at this RUclips lark now 🙂
New subscriber! I just learned about this app this week. Only one chain of stores/gas stations are on the app. The employees don't know what it is yet. When I go to pick it up, they go directly to the fresh hot food and fill me up. We've been getting loads of food that will last for several days!
I've had it on my phone for ages but have never used it. I got inspired to give it a go watching these videos. Just reserved myself a Costa bag for tomorrow.
@@GreenoEats savory is good sweet is usualy over sweet i got the Apt not much of interest for me at the moment and most is to far crazy i got no car rely on bus any way least got bus pass for morrisons its surgesting one too far when there is one easyier to get to at Teignmouth instead of Torquay mildlemore not been that way its near the foot ball ground 🤣 the one at teignmouth i know were it is been there 😂guess it varies shall Just keep look
Yes, it's a win-win situation I think - the business gets some money for food they might otherwise dispose of, and the customer gets a good value meal (or bakery items anyway!)
Yeah, it’s a bit of a lottery as to what you get, but as long as you go into it with an open mind and aren’t a fussy eater then you can get some real bargains. Got a new video coming out tomorrow with some more magic bags from other places if you wanna check that too 😉
Hey, thanks for checking the video. Never been to the Bay Area myself, the one time I was in California was down in Orange County. I hope you find some cool options on the app, let me know how you get on!
Yeah, mostly I agree with that, although I am always a little careful of items with salad in when the date is expired, that can be a little dodgy! Thanks for watching!!
The date on the M&S sandwiches is not a Use By date. It is a Sell By and/or Best By/Before date. Not sure why you have a problem with eating something as basic as a doughnut and for some reason consider it only appropriate for children.
Hi Jim, thanks for your comment and feedback. Maybe I misunderstood the information on the M&S sandwiches, although something like a BLT probably doesn’t keep that well as the salad and tomatoes just make the bread soggy. As for the doughnuts, I don’t have a problem with eating them, I’m just not fond of iced doughnuts. I like the traditional jam filled sugary ones, but iced ones or Krispy Kreme etc. just don’t do it for me. Thanks for watching!
Food banks near me only take tins, cans, packets etc. Not fresh items with short shelf life. I do make regular donations to my local foodbank, as I believe that I am in a fortunate enough position to be able to do so. Quite how we have gotten to the situation that government support for folk struggling doesn’t extend to making sure they are able to eat enough to survive is beyond me.
Hi Keith. I appreciate the sentiment of your message, and it is something I am conscious of. The point of my video is to highlight an app that many people are not aware of (I certainly wasn't until fairly recently) and I can only do that by showing examples of what you might expect to receive. I am aware that there are people who may need the help more than I do, so I have a policy that I would never take the last available bag from a particular outlet.
I think I can spy a new obsession coming on !!
These magic bags were so much better than the first one I got (for me anyway!) - can't wait to pick up some more!!
spy .. lol say x
@@GreenoEats 😂😂😂💞
Costa vs Greggs…

Wow! 4 x sausage rolls fair play Greggs and other stuff good too - fantastic price! 👏
😀
I have never used the app before but I'm tempted to just to see what I can get my hands on
Give it a go - you do occasionally get a duff one, but quickly learn to avoid those places and go to the ones you get better results from !
The look of pure joy on your face when you brought out the sausage rolls, was lovely!
Ha ha, yeah I did get a little overexcited perhaps, but we all love a Gregg’s sausage roll don’t we 😀 Thanks so much for watching!
That is more like it! Those bags were amazing. The only item I would struggle with would be the Bean & Cheese Toastie; I mean what concoction is that? 😝And Ideally from Greggs I would have a Yum Yums pastry instead of the pink doughnuts.
Blimey, you’re re really trawling the archives aren’t you Gary 😂
@@GreenoEats Sorry, I was just making up for being a late starter.
@@GaryG1974 ha ha, you crack on Gary, I haven’t seen those videos in a while, you’ll have to let me know if I’ve got any better at this RUclips lark now 🙂
😂 good selection 😂😂❤❤
Absolutely 🙂
Good food. Ive never heard of that app but maybe its cos I live in Northern Ireland.
Do they not have it in Northern Irelnd? I'd be surprised - why not give it a try?

Ha ha, amazing! I hope that for your sake it takes them a while to cotton on to what they are supposed to be doing! In the meantime enjoy 😀

many of the Greggs bags seem to have Sausage rolls in.
the only down side is that you could end up with a bag of bread and buns
Yeah, I have generally been pretty pleased with my Greggs bags. Thanks for watching
Yaaay! Better bags :D You looked so happy with these ones, that was really sweet!
Yeah I ate like a king for a couple of days... Assuming that king eats mainly sandwiches and sausage rolls 🤣
@@GreenoEats 🤣 very nice. When I‘m back home I‘m gonna see what I can get off the app
Let me know how you get on, I did look at a few places in Germany and there were a lot of bakery options!
@@GreenoEats yes, that‘s what I‘ve mostly seen, too.
its only little old me living alone no family or friends to Share😊
Normally the stuff in the bakery bags has a good couple of days life left in it 🙂
@@GreenoEats savory is good sweet is usualy over sweet
i got the Apt not much of interest for me at the moment and most is to far crazy i got no car rely on bus any way least got bus pass
for morrisons its surgesting one too far when there is one easyier to get to at Teignmouth instead of Torquay mildlemore not been that way its near the foot ball ground 🤣
the one at teignmouth i know were it is been there
😂guess it varies shall Just keep look
Did a lot better with the Greggs this time. But pulling out those BLTs right at the start was the winner for me!!
100% buddy, those BLTs were the first thing that got scoffed. Always gonna be that way!
Value on this stuff is very great
Yes, it's a win-win situation I think - the business gets some money for food they might otherwise dispose of, and the customer gets a good value meal (or bakery items anyway!)
These were good especially the greggs sausage rolls
Can’t go wrong with their sausage rolls 😀
Wow I didn’t know that Costa sold M&S products!? I’ll be giving it a try next time I see one available haha thanks 👍
Yeah, I think all the pre-packaged stuff they have is from the M&S range - probably coming at premium prices to boot! Thanks for watching :-)
@@GreenoEats yeah it’s most likely the M&S cafe range! Good to know fella! I have 2 costas just around the corner from me so all good haha
@@IamBATMAN2024 get on the Too Good to Go app and grab yourself some bargains 😀
@@GreenoEats I’ve got it mate 😅
Great value for money
Yeah, it’s a bit of a lottery as to what you get, but as long as you go into it with an open mind and aren’t a fussy eater then you can get some real bargains. Got a new video coming out tomorrow with some more magic bags from other places if you wanna check that too 😉
Love this idea ! I just downloaded the app in my area ( California Bay Area ) and am looking forward to see what happens !
Hey, thanks for checking the video. Never been to the Bay Area myself, the one time I was in California was down in Orange County. I hope you find some cool options on the app, let me know how you get on!
The dates are utter twaddle.
Yeah, mostly I agree with that, although I am always a little careful of items with salad in when the date is expired, that can be a little dodgy! Thanks for watching!!
Most things will freeze.
This is true, although sometimes it’s a lottery as to how edible they are when you defrost them 😀
Wow costa 20 pounds easy and gregs my pack up for day ,,two bargain buys thats great value
Yeah sometimes you can get lucky and get a real bargain. Luck of the draw. Thanks for watching!
You have a lovely accent :)
That’s very kind of you to say so Jessica! Thanks so much for watching.
Vegan cheese 14 minutes to cook - I’m impressed as vegan cheese and cockroaches would be the only thing to survive a nuclear war! 😂
If all that is left is vegan cheese and cockroaches then I am glad I wouldn't make it 😂
😂😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉🎉
Just subscribed- great channel, background music a bit off putting
Thanks Bessie - glad you're enjoying the content - I agree about the background music - was a short-lived experiment ha ha!!

ooh never new Coke cola owned M+S thy own costa we no
The Costa and M&S thing is just a collaboration as far as I am aware?
ah ok :)@@GreenoEats
Shame about the music, not needed.
Hi there, this was a video I made about 18 months ago, probably was just playing with ideas about the music. Doesn’t happen in my more recent videos 😀
Full of carbs yuk
Not claiming that the contents of the bags are the healthiest option out there. Carbs are tasty though!
🤡
Why take 2?? Maybe the next hungry person was left with nothing,... Greedy
