✨ Lemon8 Post — $4.99 Too Good To Go Surprise Bag

I grabbed another Too Good To Go bag from Nomad Café for 4.99. Everything was fresh, flaky, and 7 items was more than I expected in a single bag. The pick up is late afternoon and they usually give everything that’s left over in the bakery display but it’s never been this much on my other pickups.

Here’s some what I ended up with:

🥐 Bacon Croissant

Flaky, buttery, and packed with real bacon. This alone would’ve been almost the cost of the whole bag.

🥐 Almond Croissant

🍎 Apple Tartlet

🧁 Banana Nut Muffin

🥐 Cheese Croissant

Everything together would’ve easily been over $35 full price. TGTG stays undefeated when you find a good location.
