Overview

  • TikTok creator Becky paid £6.29 for a Too Good To Go bag from Millie’s Cookies at Trafford Centre that was marketed as worth £12.60.
  • Upon opening, Becky and her companion found chiefly assorted cookie off-cuts described as “sweeping off the floor” rather than whole biscuits.
  • They noted that four intact cookies would cost £7.99, but some social media users argued the crumb-like contents did not justify the £6.29 price.
  • This episode follows similar surprise-bag complaints from Morrisons Café and Asda Express earlier this month, highlighting wide variability in bag contents.
  • Too Good To Go, which promotes itself as the world’s largest surplus food marketplace offering items at half price or less, has been contacted for a site-specific response and has not yet commented.
