You never know exactly what you’re going to get when picking up a Too Good To Go bag, and one man was in for a funny surprise when he bought one from Greggs.
Owen Reeman, better known as ‘the random takeaway night guy' on TikTok, was confident he would be in for a treat after going back to the Greggs store he’d had good luck with in the past. Too Good To Go is an app that allows customers to buy surplus food from various supermarkets, cafes and restaurants at a lower price in a bid to eliminate food waste.
Shoppers can’t pick out individual items - instead, they buy surprise bags filled with a mix of products that the store has left over that day. You might be lucky and score a bunch of discounted baked goods, but sometimes the contents might surprise you.

In a video on TikTok, Owen spoke about his experience with a Greggs Too Good To Go bag. Sitting in his car, he said: “I’ve gone back to the Greggs that has done so well in the past.
“The previous two times there have been two of the greatest Too Good To Go bags of all time.
“This bag, by the way, weighs an absolute tonne yet again.” He then went inside to have looked at what he had received from Greggs this time."
Owen added: “[This is] the third bag from this Greggs, can they make it three bags in a row of absolutely sensational value?”
Peering inside the bag he instantly laughed and declared: “This might be the funniest Too Good To Go bag yet.”
He said it was “still really good value, but it’s also very funny.” The foodie showed what products he got, starting with four sausage rolls.
Continuing to unpack the mystery bag, next Owen pulled out four more sausage rolls followed by another four sausage rolls.
The final item he got was a Jammy Heart Biscuit, “for good measure.” This item costs £1.35 and is a shortbread biscuit with a raspberry jam filling and the classic sausage rolls are £1.30 each.
A Too Good To Go bag from Greggs is usually £2.59 or £3.15 so Owen managed to save a fair bit of money.
Discussing the products he snagged, he remarked: “So it’s still like 12, 13 quid but it’s just 12 sausage rolls.
“Clearly there was quite a lot going at the end of the day, there was a lot to get rid of and they’ve given me all of them so thank you Greggs I guess.”
Owen said “you can’t complain” and would rather get 12 sausage rolls than 12 of something you don’t like, deciding he got a “good result”.
His TikTok video has sparked more than 260 comments, including from Too Good To Go, who said: “Sausage rolls saved from going to waste + snacks for days.”
Another user added: “This happened to my son so he left them on the kitchen side of his house and nipped down the chippy. Everyone had sausage rolls and chips for tea!”
A third commented: “I would be well happy with that. I got a Too Good To Go bag from Greggs and it contained a pack of 5 jam donuts which were soggy in the packet, 3 of the caramel custard donuts and a chicken and bacon pasta salad.
“I ate the pasta salad and the rest went in the bin.” A fourth user agreed: “I'd be over the moon with that!!!”
