Hello welcome to my kitchen I’m Claire I’m a mom to two so I’ve got a family of four that I’m trying to feed on a very tight budget yes my maternity pay has run out so the pennies need to go a little further at the moment now I do a
Lot of these too good to go um surprise bag Magic Bag videos there is a playlist link below if you would like to go and watch some more of them so if you do enjoy them please do like and subscribe I really appreciate it uh now the
Purpose of the app cuz I feel like I haven’t gone over that for a little while is it’s this app the Too Good To Go app and you can reserve from various supermarkets places like Gregs Costa Starbucks all sorts of places do it bags of food that is about to expire or even
Sometimes has already expired still fit for consumption it’s still perfectly good they just can’t sell it anymore so it’s destined for landfill which is Criminal so it uh absolutely reduces food waste which is brilliant and I’m all about that eco-friendly side of it it’s also a really good way of getting a
Lot of food very inexpensive Ely you’ll typically pay about3 off per bag and it will have a minimum value so it will say okay you pay3 but the bags to a value of £10 most places that are good the value is actually much much higher than that
But you know every place varies some places are great some places not so much it’s look at the drawer so today I went to wdi I picked up two bags again this is cuz I’m trying to make the penny stretch I’m not hoarding them or anything like that and uh pay £330 per
Bag I say bag actually boxes let’s go through and see what we’ve got as we go through I’ll sort of tell you how I’m going to use this stuff as well to make sure that absolutely nothing goes to waste I have a hair on my eye that’s glamorous H help YouTube problem right
Okay let’s have a look first box I have chocolate protein pots what I’ll do as well is I’ll go on the ldi website and find out the actual price of these so we can compare the value of the bag to what I paid um this is the sort of thing that
I would look at and go ooh they look great but it’s just not in the budget so it’s nice to have a treat they are glutenfree Happy Days excellent do they have a best before date on them I’m sure they do 29th of October which was yesterday they
Can’t read though they’ll be absolutely fine and I’ll probably eat them pretty quickly oh this is exciting four Brilliance cuz I’m a family of four so that that works out nicely and the 8-month-old won’t eat a whole one of these but she will eat them I made some homemade burgers yesterday
And she wolfed down like a third of one so but anyway I digress wagu Quarter Pounders isn’t wagu that really expensive steak what oh please tell me you’re gluten-free please tell me you’re glutenfree yes they’re gluten-free these are going straight in the freezer well happy the whole value of the bag is
Probably made up of these fabulous okay ready to eat pre-cooked chicken slices Peri Perry chicken slices these are great for Ed’s lunches and they freeze fine as well it even says freezable on the box so I’m not just ninja freezing and going rogue therey dokie let’s have a look at you
I’ve got some satsumas these have have seen slightly better days haven’t we all so we’ll get those used up pretty quickly I think cuz they look like they might be on the turn a bit but that’s not a problem we’ll use them pretty quickly apple and grape Snack
Pack I’m not a fan of buying things like this just purely because the you know it’s a lot of plastic but yeah um but they will get used I have a toddler she will 100% % eat this if not tonight then tomorrow oh ed’ll be a happy boy ready
To eat puff pastry beef and vable words are hard V beef and vegetable pasty there you go it’s freezable as well so I can bung this in the freezer it’s actually off sick at the moment um he had a nasty accident on his bike and has ruined his
Knee so he’s not doing work lunches for the next couple of days but it will freeze and defrost and heat up in the microwave just fine and then finally in this bag we’ve got 12 mini white pits oh these would be really cute to do little
Mini um toddler pizzas with ooh ooh what I might do is put these in little freezer bags with a couple in each bag or maybe just one big one and pull them I I’m going to freeze them Pitter bread freezes amazingly all baked goods really freeze really well
So they will definitely get used that’s exciting again something I would look at and think that looks good but never actually buy so it’s another perk of getting these bags is you get to try stuff right let’s have a look at the other one okay it’s looking
Good get the boring stuff out the way and leave the good stuff to the end I think I have two more bags of satsumas uh again these um have looked better I’m sure but um what I might do is drop a bag of these around my neighbors she’s used to getting weird
Stuff from me when we have an excess of stuff maybe I should make Mandarin wine H I will come up with something to do with these though we do not waste in this house I’ve got another box of the chocolate protein pots date on them is yesterday again so little little treat
For Mom good we have another beef and vegetable pasty get me words out put me teeth in so these are a good size actually I’m curious to see on screen how much these actually cost because the price of things like this is definitely going up
Now we get to the good stuff oh that before we get to the good stuff there’s another Apple pack I will have one too now the really good stuff I like the Aldi U boxes because especially the one near me they tend to give you meat items which um different supermarkets seem to
Be good at giving you different things the Morrison’s near me is brilliant for fresh fruit and veg they’re I can do a whole week Shop with a Morrison’s Magic Bag it’s brilliant sorry surprise bag um but Aldi seemed to give a little bit more processed stuff which you know it’s
It’s your thing it’s your thing but also meat items which are expensive as we know I’ve got a full pack of gluten-free sausages honey and must ooh honey and mustard sausages I don’t think I’ve had those brilliant they will be going straight in the freezer and we will very much enjoy
Those and then these are great size look how thick they are it’s just two in the pack I thought it was four initially two cod fish cakes Cooks in 20 minutes apparently clearly I can’t eat these but Ed and Freya can and I’m sure L can have some of phrase so yeah they’re
Amazing o right I through the magic of YouTube I’ll put up on screen just now how much all of this is worth and as I said I paid £330 per box so £660 all in that is definitely more than £660 is worth of shopping that I mean these boxes they
Weren’t full to the brim but they were pretty full and I got two of the little crates from a ssb’s delivery order the other day for £50 so definitely worth it let me know what you thought of those and do like and subscribe if you’ve enjoyed I really
Appreciate it I hate asking that but I need to get better at doing that so H have a lovely week take care bye

I’ve just reserved 2 surprise bags from my local Aldi, really excited to see what I end up with. I’ve stumbled upon your videos and I was sold instantly.
Can’t wait for this evening pick up 😅.
Xx
Great bags!
Small oranges/ satsumas can be baked in the skin for dessert.
How do you get these do you order them
Sherbet for Christmas from the orange peels.
They are great boxes! I love Aldi for the Too Good To Go bags 😊
Hi Claire well worth the money super mum thanks for sharing 👍 😊
Great video Claire but I don't understand what pounds are and the worth of it i am from the United States so I am clueless about it. But anyway love the video and you are a pleasure as always.
Well done they are definitely worth it. Poor Ed i hope he feels better soon. Take care lovely 🥰 xxx
Looks like you did really well with those boxes! So sorry to hear about Ed's bike accident. Sounds painful. Good video as always, Claire. See you next time!
Great boxes Claire, deffo got you money back and more, when are you back at work?
Such a great couple of boxes! Do you have food banks? I’m kind of wondering if foods that go to food banks in my country get put in magic boxes in your country? I would buy these every week if they are in my area.
I feel when you say that they sometimes give you food that had expired, you should probably stress that means 'best before' not past 'use by' and it's illegal to give/sell past use by and Aldi.might get upset by the misinformation.
I hope Ed's better soon
Those too good to go bags or boxes are great
😤🪡🦶🧅🌁
I cancelled the App, as they are few and far between in my area.
Lovely lady so kind good aldi haul thank you😅😊
Great bags. So sad Aldi dont do too good to go here in Germany 😢
I have just found the app and ordered 2 bags to pick up this evening, 1 from a supermarket and 1 from a Bakery. Paid €6.98 in total. First time doing this.
