A young woman was able to buy a fortnight worth of groceries for just £18 after downloading a clever app. Mia Munro was typically spending around £200 a month on her food shop, but like many struggling with the ongoing cost of living crisis, the 20-year-old has been trying to find ways to cut back.
The student, from Newcastle, then stumbled upon Too Good to Go - an app that lets people buy food that would otherwise by thrown out by businesses at a lower price, the Liverpool Echo reports. The idea behind the site is that less food is wasted, and people can save money.
Mia downloaded the app and ordered a "Too Good to Go bag" every day from Monday to Friday. Combined with using ingredients she already had in her freezer, she said she spent £18 for two weeks' worth of food.
