Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Depends how far out you want to go. Plenty of options in Abergavenny (Costas, various supermarkets and a bakery), some in Monmouth and Hay.

You're not quite the middle of nowhere are you, Hann? But I bet you can just about see the middle of nowhere from your place. ;-)

I've had occasions when I've clicked to reserve and in that split second, the bag has been claimed by someone else - it is frustrating when that happens.

I think the popular ones are down to perfect timing. The local ones to me come on 15mins after the previous pick up time. IE, if pick up time was 15:00, they come on sale at precisely 15:15. Not sure if that’s the same across the board but it holds true here.

Just picked up a Too good to go bag from Mecca bingo - not very exciting, 2 frozen macaroni cheeses. These are now in my freezer (don't know why they couldn't use them another day as the date on them is 2024). Need to guess cooking instructions- will nuke them in the microwave until they are hot!

That does seem a bit odd, Jen.

We've been struggling to get M&S bags recently as they tend to go immediately after they go on the site at midnight. We got lucky today, and almost the whole bag is good for me as a veggie.

Have you rescued any Magic Bags today?

I've had the Too Good to Go app on my phone for a few months but not had any success with finding any Magic Bags of food that needed saving near me. If you've not come across it, local shops, cafes and pubs offer bags of unsold food at discounted prices as long as you can collect within a short window of time just before they close, usually.
Today I've reserved 2 bags from Cooplands bakery in our local little town, to be collected 3-3:15p...
