downsouth 7,151 Posted December 15, 2022 Report Share Posted December 15, 2022 I know there are a lot of wasters out there who would sooner spend their money on gear or flash phones etc and I also know there are people who would rather buy ready meals or takeaways than cook a decent meal from scratch and plan their weeks food properly when shopping but there is also a lot of decent people genuinly struggling atm.My girlfriend volunteers at her local foodbank once a week and says she has seen a massive increase in hardworking sensible people(nurses etc)coming in in the last 6months,Some of them have chatted to her about how they're struggling after paying all their bills but some sgmhe said are obviously embarassed about having to use a foodbank and just want to get their stuff and leave as quickly as possible.
