A woman has left people gobsmacked at how much she spends on takeaways per month, because she doesn’t cook for herself, and treats herself to yummy food every day
Takeaways are a tasty treat most people enjoy a few times a month.
Whether you’re craving a burger and fries, a curry, or some salt and pepper chicken wings, all your favorite dishes are just a few clicks away. But on most nights, you probably push yourself to cook healthy, nutritious meals because shopping at the supermarket is far more affordable.
However, one woman says she orders takeaway for every single meal – every day – for one simple reason: she can’t cook.
Saffron Marie, 26, proudly took to TikTok to announce: “I’m the girl who orders takeaway every single day. I’m 26, I cannot cook – I have tried to cook, yes, and it’s always a disaster, so why waste my coin when I can just get takeaway?”

She started the day with an escalope wrap, which she said was “yummy,” and she also got a “Belgian waffle for dessert”.
Saffron said: “So, yes, this is breakfast, but I got up late”. She then described that she would be “ordering more throughout the day” when she was hungry.
She then met her friend for an “early dinner” where she ate a “cheese and beans jacket potato,” which she showed on the camera, saying she’d moved her onions to the side of the plate because she’s not a fan.
Then, she said: “It is almost now 11pm, and I know I’ve eaten a lot today, but to be fair, the jacket potato was really healthy, so I don’t think that counts.
“And, for my dinner, I’ve got a Domino’s, and on my Domino’s pizza […] I have just got – this is one of my favourite combinations – it is the BBQ on there, and I also did get a McDonald’s Coke delivered separately”.
In the comments, many were baffled, with one writing: “Who likes takeaways this much? I always feel the thought of a takeaway is better than the actual takeaway”.
Another fumed about the fact that she said she couldn’t cook, with one man saying: “You can easily put a potato in. They even do frozen ones put them in the microwave”.
Saffron responded to them, however, penning: “But I don’t want a microwave potato?” Someone else chimed in: “When would she eat a mid-meal when she can have a nice one?” “Thank you,” Saffron replied.
A man reckoned that cooking is all about “confidence,” as he shared: “Anyone can cook! I used to help my housemates who ‘couldn’t cook’ and my partner. It’s confidence”.
Saffron replied: “You are very right. I am terrified of using a knife, to be honest, so that stunts me from cooking”. A woman said: “If you don’t mind paying a bit extra, you can get pre-chopped veg onions etc”.
In another video, someone fumed: “Surely you can just buy a frozen pizza and chuck it in the oven for 10 mins? I’m not judging, but girl, this must be costing you a FORTUNE”.
Saffron reckoned that it wasn’t costing her a lot, just “£20 or £30 per day”. Someone responded to say: “So £1000 a month girl please”. Another said: “Can do a weekly shop for £40!”
