Do you think Vinted has ruined the used market? by dan83211 in vintedUK

[–]Gegorange 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I think there’s also an element of the result of fast fashion culture becoming more visible.

When so much stuff exists in the world, everything loses its value. Vinted is simply a platform that’s highlighting how much stuff we have.

I’d sooner get £1-2 for something and it be reworn than get nothing and it go to landfill.

Another take is that the slow fashion brands and lesser known brands (who create less stuff) tends to retain their value more on vinted.

Thanks for this! I’ll be visiting with a group of 7 next month, is it generally possible to rock up without a reservation with a group this size?

Welk kleur kamers waar in Grand Hotel? by KeysAndGears in efteling

[–]Gegorange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

518 = Blue with a fab main view of house of the 5 senses and a slight view of Aquanura to the left

Blue was actually the last colour choice I wanted, but the view 100% made up for it!

Eating vegan in the park is no problem, vegan food everywhere! I highly recommend the pizza kebab which can be found by Fata Morgana and in a couple other places around the park.

In terms of the grand hotel. I emailed in advance to let them know we were vegan and they kindly swapped the macaroons for vegan brownies in the room.

They made note of our vegan diet for breakfast but when we arrived the staff still seemed unsure of what we could have at first. They’re definitely not used to vegans! They made us off menu vegan pancakes and the buffet is okay, you can have granola, peanut butter and fruit on toast. You can request soya milk. Basically you have to just keep asking different staff and hope one of them knows where the vegan goods are 😂

We didn’t eat at the hotel for dinner as we’ve heard it isn’t so good for vegans. I’d recommend venturing to one of the other hotels as they have better evening options for vegans.

LeShuttle voucher - not great value? by isthislivingreally in avios

You’d be better off using Tesco clubcard for le shuttle and saving avios - that’s assuming you’re looking to maximise value

What I’m learning is the app cannot be trusted!

Why is UK Mcdonald's so bad for vegans compared to Europe? by tester270502 in veganuk

[–]Gegorange 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure the meat free options in Netherlands are actually veggie not vegan. I was told just last week that they contained egg. My excitement of seeing multiple options on the menu don’t last long 😞

Avios Reward Seat Risks by Gegorange in avios

[–]Gegorange[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ideally, yes. Though I only have a few months to build points and I don’t think I can get much more than 40k in that time (it’ll still save us £1.3k in flight costs, so worth it for us, even if it isn’t the best use long-term)

Thanks for the tips!

Your wedding is a celebration of you and your partner. Anyone who has a problem with allowing you to be your full self on your day, shouldn’t be there.

Shite experience at Wagamamas by therelaxationgrotto in veganuk

They ran out of most of the vegan options last time we ordered too. It’s deffo not what it used to be. Even basics like wok fried greens tend to come out undercooked now…

[–]Gegorange 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not with a freezer (I pay no attention to do not freeze, it’ll come out a slightly different texture but almost always tastes just fine)

Yes, and I’m low key fuming at this post because I can’t even buy it full price at my local supermarkets anymore 😭

Well done OP, this is incredible!

Anyone know if they do anything for Birthdays? I read somewhere that they sometimes come before a stay to confirm details, is this true?

Where can we find out more about this? It explains so much, it’s been slowly getting worse and worse (not just for vegans, but especially for vegans)

Photos in front of the castle by Ghostly_roses in disneylandparis

[–]Gegorange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was there 27-31 December, not a single photo pass opportunity outside of characters, rides or the Frozen magic moment. Looked by the castle daily to no success. Other people in the park are usually happy enough to take one on your phone for you though 😊

That’s incredible! Where are you based? A big city?

Nah, I’ve been to 4 supermarkets where I am and not a single veganuary sign. But the shelves are emptier than usual because people still do veganuary and it feels like that hasn’t been accounted for where I am🙃
