Mixed bag

a mixed bag of nuts

The people I met at the support group were a mixed bag: some were grouchy pessimists, and others were cheery do-gooders.

Owning a car is a mixed bag. It is convenient, but also costly.

It was Villa, however, who posted the next moment of danger with another long-range effort from Young, forcing Hart - who had been a mixed bag throughout - to dive low to his right to save as Houllier's side continued to perform in a most encouraging fashion

At the same time, it did not alleviate teenagers’ social anxiety and young users did not share more photos, as the company thought they might, leading to a mixed bag of results.
