Magic Bag

Picking up a Too Good To Go magic bag from Costa at 4pm.

I have never eaten food in a Costa but it does say potential for M&S goodies? Bit confused.

It was £3, supposedly worth £10 which on reflection is probably a sandwich and a cookie or something

Anyway, feel free to take guesses at the contents of said magic bag, or discuss whatever you want to about magic, bags, costa, or adjacent topics.

TIA

I believe that traditionally a magic bag contains a combination of rabbits and doves :+1:

Think a lot of the food there is made by M&S

This is good news

Wait till you see whats in there, last time I was in M&S they were selling the passionfruit seeds in a juice pouch

For the record, this will be M’s dinner so any product reviews will be written by her

Personal guess is a lemon drizzle slice or lemony muffin

The only options that ever come up for me are Costa, a chicken shop and a fancy grocers. The others sell out so fast.

Curious about the grocery place but i dont want to get landed with a load of veg on the turn that i then need to spend money on other ingredients to put them to use.

Remember me and my dad getting a mystery bag from Vinyl Exchange which was like a fiver or a tenner for 80 cds. the cds were all singles really and utter shite. Think Ricky from Eastenders single was in there

I did the Fred Aldous mystery tube of art which is a lovely idea but i just felt burdened with all these prints that i didn’t really like or want to frame so kept them in a tube for enough time to pass that my guilt subsided then recycled them all.

Love mystery things as a concept but its often just tat

There is usually a reason they’re being given away! Hope Costa have got their standards right though

I did Too Good To Go a few times during the pandemic.

So much bread. Too much bread. Even made bread pudding and still had to throw away some bread.
