What are they?
A “pre-listing” is a post on Olio before your scheduled collection to let local Olio-ers know you're expecting to collect and share food later on.
Why should I make one?
🤝 This means that your neighbours will be waiting for you so they can request, and not the other way around, watch those requests come flying in!

⏰ What time you expect to be posting the food
🛒 What business you are collecting from
🥐 Details about the food you’re expecting (if you know)
