I eat takeaway every night but never pay – I make poor choices when it comes to my food, but there's no way I'm cooking
A WOMAN who eats takeaway every night has defended her unique food plan, but admitted she makes "poor choices" when it comes to her dinner.
Saffron regularly shares videos of herself tucking into a pizza or greasy meal of an evening, and has found herself criticised for how frequently she relies on takeout food.

However, in a new TikTok, she explained that she saves herself during the day so that she can chow down guilt free at dinner time.
"Eating really late means there's hardly any options available, especially where I live," she said.
And given that she relies on "pay pigs" to buy her meals for her, she always chooses to collect them from the food outlets.
"There aren't many places you can really collect from," Saffron added.
"So yes, we've got another Domino's."
But she admitted that if she had to use her own money, she wouldn't choose the same food.
"Today with my own money I have had one meal, which was a green vegan juice, and an acai bowl - a mini one as well," she continued.
"I don't snack, so it's not like I'm eating these big meals and then snacking all day, so I'm not making excuses for it."
So while her "meal choices are poor", when she buys her food herself, they "aren't that bad".
"I do have one other thing to say as well about all of this," she concluded.
I was size 22 eating FIVE takeaways a week - now I'm told I look like Gemma Owen after 8st weight loss without jabs
"A lot of the people judging me in the comment section, I'm pretty sure that you guys do other things that are worse than eating!"
As predicted, the comments was full of people criticising Saffron for her love of takeaways.
"Domino's is processed crap, what's proud to be about it?" one wrote.
"Grow up!"
"That's pure toxic processed garbage that will end in disease/cancer," another said.
"I feel bad for anyone who is naive like this."
How to save money on pizza
TAKEAWAY pizzas taste great but they can hit you hard on your wallet. Here are some tips on how to save on pizza:
Cashback websites - TopCashback and Quidco will pay you to order your pizza through them. They're paid by retailers for every click that comes to their website from the cashback site, which eventually trickles down to you. So you'll get cashback on orders placed through them.
Discount codes - Check sites like VoucherCodes for any discount codes you can use to get money off your order.
Make you own topping - One savvy customer noticed that Domino's charges up to 70p MORE for pizzas on its menu compared to ordering the same one through the "create your own" option. It's worth trying out to see if it makes a difference before you place your next order.
Buy it from the shops - It might not taste exactly the same but you'll save the most money by picking up your favourite pizza from your local supermarket. Some Asda stores sell freshly made ones from the pizza counter where prices start at £2.
"There's about 4000 calories in that, and 700 calories in an acai bowl, so you gained about a pound today - wake up!" a third sighed.
However, others defended Saffron, with one asking: "Why so many hate comments?
"She's gorgeous and seems so sweet and lovely.
"Everyone lives their life differently and does things their own way.
"Keep doing you and ignore the negativity!"
"Why are people so pressed in these comments?" another questioned.
"She's not making you eat it!"
"I agree with you 100%, food with my own money is just diabolical," a third laughed.
"However food being paid for by others, I'm straight on Ubereats!
"Don't listen to jealous people in the comments who would probably do worse things than eating."
"'Random men pay for my food' well what other use do they have?" someone else joked.
"Living the dream here! And I will never stop loving your honest videos!"
"As someone who's pregnant and hates any food at home right now, if anyone wants to pay for me to have daily takeaways, I'm totally okay with that," another laughed.
While someone else asked: "Would you ever be worried about the random guys showing up when you go to collect the food?"
"I'm really not because the chances of anything happening by a complete stranger is a real thing unfortunately," Saffron replied.
"And most of these guys are from areas hours and hours away from me!"

Trans books for toddlers are an outrage
But let's move away from the brazen attempts to brainwash little children for just a moment and settle down in the story corner for today's educational tale (with apologies to Eric Carle), The Very Publicity-Hungry Campaigner. One day a tiny and very publicity-hungry campaigner, who wanted to be a big deal, hatched a plan to recruit pre-school allies. He had guessed, quite rightly, that toddlers were the only demographic likely to believe his guff that anyone can change sex if they just pop on a frock and get furious about pronouns. On the first day, The Very Publicity-Hungry Campaigner gobbled up one publishing deal. On the second day he wrote two books explaining that girls who play with trains are probably boys and boys who like pink should be taken to a doctor and diagnosed as transgender. On the third day, The Very Publicity-Hungry Campaigner bullied women writers who did not agree with his crackpot notions. On the fourth day he slapped a great big Stonewall Award sticker on a book about a sister becoming a brother. On the fifth day, he ate a wheelbarrow of oranges and threatened to cancel anyone who said they were not the only fruit. Then on the sixth day, he disseminated a library of kids' books in which gender transitioning turned out to be the twinkly secret of a happy-ever-after. On the seventh day, he devoured every last scrap of bonkers gender ideology he could find and disappeared off to digest it. Some time later, The Very Publicity-Hungry Campaigner emerged looking like an extra from RuPaul's Drag Race and announced he was now a biological woman. The Very Publicity-Hungry Campaigner banged on about his lived experience (of about a week). It was tempting to get very cross indeed. But then the Supreme Court decided that references to 'sex', 'man' and 'woman' in the Equality Act referred to biological sex and after that, nobody cared what he said, safe in the knowledge it was now illegal for him to manspread in the ladies' changing room or beat women to a pulp in the Olympics. The End. If only it were. I thought we were done with all this nonsense – Martine Croxall we salute your eye roll at the witless term 'pregnant people' – and I for one have no desire to give Very Publicity-Hungry Campaigners any more of the attention they so desperately crave. Fighting dirty But new research into the publishing industry carried out by UK pressure group Sex Matters and its US equivalent, SEEN in Publishing, has revealed that a 'shiny, sparkly world of trans identities' is being promoted to young readers, with 'many aimed at toddlers'. Now that really is fighting so dirty I have to speak up: how dare publishers literally mess with little children's minds in this way? Here in north London having two mums is commonplace, two dads is no biggie; small kids aren't that interested in their parents' sexual preferences, they are interested in being loved, nurtured and protected. Growing up is hard enough work, which is why it's utterly immoral to draw toddlers, who haven't even mastered the potty, into the adult world of human identity politics. What next? Assisted dying and late-stage abortion? At this age, most of our collective offspring still believe Paw Patrol is real and the moon follows them home, for pity's sake. Sowing the seeds of doubt about their biological sex is outrageous, indefensible and, let's be honest, exceedingly creepy. Let our littlest citizens learn tolerance, fairness (yes even to women) kindness (ditto) and consideration. But they also deserve to know they have the right to ask questions and press for answers – anathema to the militant trans lobby who prefer to shut everyone down in case they bring up uncomfortable truths like biology. This new audit of the publishing industry found that of 21 publishers surveyed, a fifth of their output on transgender-related products was targeted at children, leading the report to raise concerns that the message in the early-reader books was often that becoming transgender will 'resolve bodily hatred and create enduring joy in the form of 'trans euphoria''. Crikey, if that were the case we'd all be at it. But it's not. Take a look at the shouty trans forums online and I've got to say that enduring joy doesn't feature nearly as often as spittle-flecked misogyny.

I've made £6.7k on Vinted & here's 10 rules I follow to guarantee sales – from uploading times to second-chance keywords
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A VINTED pro has shared her top selling tips after making more than £6,000 on the app - and when you upload items makes all the difference. Laura Egan, from Glasgow, has seriously topped up her bank account by flogging second-hand clothing on the online marketplace. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 Laura Egan has made more than £6,000 on Vinted Credit: TikTok @lauraegaann 3 Laura has shared her top tips for selling items quickly Credit: TikTok @lauraegaann 3 The savvy seller has a wardrobe full of stunning clothes that she sells after wearing 'once or twice' Credit: Vinted/@activegirlglasgow The newlywed - who sells under @activegirlglasgow - has racked up almost 400 glowing, five-star reviews from satisfied buyers and cashed in £6,711.44 to date. And she's now revealed the 10 rules she follows to sell items fast on Vinted. So if you're eager to make money fast and have a wardrobe full of clothes you never wear, you've come to the right place. In a TikTok post (@lauraegaann), Laura said: "I've sold a lot of clothes! I don't resell, I just buy a LOT of clothes, tend to wear them once or twice and then sell them on! "I've most recently been selling my full bridal wardrobe (yes, the engagement party dresses, hen do heels, wedding morning robes - all of it!) and I've learned some pretty good lessons along the way." First up, Laura says uploading items daily is very important when it comes to getting your items noticed. To earn a "frequent uploader" badge on Vinted, sellers must post a minimum of five items over a 30-day period, which can boost your listings. But Laura recommends uploading three to five items every DAY instead as Vinted "rewards consistency". She added: "Posting little and often keeps your items at the top of the feed. "I upload at peak times when people will be scrolling eg. on the commute to work, after dinner etc." I've found the rudest Vinted seller ever - people are stunned when I show them her 'unhinged' messages pestering me The savvy seller also strives to make her account look "curated" with a similar style throughout her posts to avoid it looking like a jumbled car boot sale. "And make sure you've got a good bio telling people what they can expect to find on your shop", she advises. Laura always uses natural daylight for photos to ensure they're as clear and bright as possible. She urges fledgling sellers to avoid artificial lighting and taking photos at night, and says you should never edit your photos. "Everything should show up looking true to the photos". she said. "Either hang clothes on a plain background or lay them flat on a white sheet. "People like to see clothes with no distractions. Clean background equals faster sale." The description is just as important as the pictures, according to Laura. She said: "If an item is flawed, don't forget to mention it. I include size, condition, RRP, how many times I've worn it, where I wore it etc. "Add every detail to the description. Give people a reason to trust you." And if an item doesn't sell within a week, it is swiftly deleted and reuploaded. Laura insists this gives listings "another shot with the algorithm" and is the perfect chance to include better keywords. She said: "I've always found I get more views the second time. Understanding tax implications According to HMRC guidance, there is no new tax rule for people selling unwanted items online. But you may need to register for Self Assessment and pay tax if you buy goods for resale with the intention of selling them for profit and generate total income exceeding £1,000 before expenses in any tax year. In other words, anyone buying items specifically to resell them may be subject to tax, while personal decluttering remains tax-free. How you acquire your items matters, because personal possessions and purchased inventory are taxed at different rates. "If you're buying stock to resell, track all your expenses including packaging, postage, and the original cost of items," Oakenfull advises. "These can be deducted from your profits when calculating any potential tax liability." The key is knowing the difference between casual selling and running a small business, and planning accordingly. "Make sure you've got good SEO keywords in the listing eg if it's from your bridal wardrobe list things as 'perfect for hen do', 'gorgeous bridal party dress' etc." She continued: "Be quick and detailed with replies to messages, fast communication builds buyer confidence "Package your items well. I always use the TikTok Shop postage bags and if anything is delicate I use tissue paper/bubble wrap. "I also add in a thank you note which tends to go a long way with reviews, but not essential. "And post your items quickly. People don't want to hang around when they're excited about their purchase. I aim to post next day when possible."
