hi,i love approved foods but with the big delays i havent bothered to order as money is tight and cant afford to wait for the food, but there is a new website opened with similar stock as dans i thought i would post a link www.foodbargains.co.uk im no way involved with this company by the way, to be honest i go to home bargains to pick up my goodies !!

Gosh they're expensive compared to Approved Food.:shocked:

I've always wanted to order, and finally settled down to soo what was there, got really excited as there was about 7 items we wanted, one of them about 30 odd of, and none of them in stock Do they restock often?

i was speaking to Dan a few days ago, and pointed out the other website, as to be honest it does look as though they have been reading this thread, as the blips that dan has been having plus the reteatly asked questions about delivery seem to be their key points on their home page.

they are VERY expensive... and i personally think it has been started purely off the back of Dan's success, couldnt think of an idea of their own...

they say they have been going for over 10 years..as copied and pasted below, but if this was the case they would have a huge selection, and have had more visitors to their website....

i personally would not touch them with a barge poll..... too expensive, PLUS it just feels there is something wrong...but cant put my finger on it.... ooo ye and in the big picture of things they are close to Dan too

We are the UK's BIGGEST online sellers of clearance, short-dated and out-of-date food & drink. Originally starting as a wholesale market trader (www.cragscashandcarry.com), Approved Food can now deliver goods to your door at unbelievable prices.
