[Closed] Gotta love Greggs!

You should have doubled on everything and spent £8, saving even more money.

what obesity crisis?

My mate cycles to work each day behind the bus, saving himself £2.50 each day.

Dickhead! I cycle to work behind a taxi, saving myself £15 each day.

You see that as a good deal? 🙄
Wow.

How much would you have spent/saved if you weren't suckered into the upsell?

what obesity crisis?

There has been many many studies showing there to be a crisis.

Have you been living under a [Ayers] rock, Mike?

The more you spend the more you save

Hmmm....good point, £3.15p! 😳

Hmmm....good point, £3.15p!

Not only 75p then, but the calories, collesteral and poor nutritional content that goes with it. You have been better off using the 75p to buy some banana's.

Popped in yesterday for some lunchtime grub and grabbed a tuna crunch [s]bagette[/s]baguette and thought I'd have a [s]Belgium[/s]Belgian Bun to go with it.

FTFY 😉

spelling and maths!!!

Nutritional Content? Grammatical Corrections!?

Ugh, I had whole pack of pringle last night it was wonderful washing down with Um Bongo.

Tasty.

mmmmmmm, Greggs.

Not long now until the festive bake. the first bite every year is the highlight of Christmas.

Had a txt from the Mrs this morning. Stopped to get a coffee and 25p more she could have a bacon role. Would have been madness not to. I have it on good authority it was a tasty decision.

25p more she could have a bacon role.

Is that a euphemism?

Sounds cheap to me!

until the festive bake

I had to google that to find out what it was!

It's got it's own Facebook page. FFS. God help us.

So let me get this right? You went into Greggs and came out, a few quid lighter, without:

A) a steak bake
B) 2 sausage rolls
C) a cheese and onion pasty
D) all of the above

Where was this? You do realise that in most of the North that's an arrestable offence?

I'm trying to avoid the sausage rolls....fell into that trap before and I'm trying to keep my newly trimmed body under control! 🙁

There is no better cure for a hangover than 2 Greggs sausage rolls and a strong coffee.

So you went into Greggs?

FFS I hate the 5-2 diet today 🙁

A Man's gotta eat and I did do a 15mile mtb ride the night before....

(anyway, I checked on the scales this morning and there's been no change!)

greggs is dire

I had 2 of their meat and potato pies as I was starving and it was the only place nearby

I've no idea how they can make all those ingredients taste of absolutely nothing at all

I ate half of one and threw the other away

shite

Usual STW middle class sanctimony 🙄

Pfft! Meat and potato pie? Spot the Gregg's amateur? Fundamental schoolboy stuff this. The empire of the orange squares was not built on it's meat and potato pies! Now get back there and do it properly with option D from my earlier post. You won't regret it!*

* disclaimer: your waistline might

and it was the only place nearby

Bollocks. There would've been another Greggs as well.

Isn't there a 24hr Greggs in Glasgow?

Or is that an urban myth?

Bollocks. There would've been another Greggs as well.

I'm quite impressed to learn that there are 10 Greggs within half a mile of me.

Isn't there a 24hr Greggs in Glasgow?

Pretty sure there is in Newcastle, it's certainly very late opening.

Hasn't Alex Salmond pledged more 24 hour Greggs in an independent Scotland?

Hmmmm I've a problem to admit. I've never eaten from a Greggs. Never had them in ROI, never felt the need to while I've lived in the UK. There is one right beside work as well.

If the Greggs you shop at doesn't sell stotties, you are in one of the sham export Greggs set up to fleece Southerners of their cash.

This is fact.

Not only 75p then, but the calories, collesteral and poor nutritional content that goes with it. You have been better off using the 75p to buy some banana's.

I live within walking distance of the First ever greggs shop.

https://www.greggs.co.uk/about-us/history/

In the one of the most middle class bits of Newcastle. It doesn't open 24h though.

I love pie and I love cake. I don't go enough... Had a proper craving for a steak bake about halfway through a double century last month but couldn't find a greggs in Berwick.

Wow! How did you know what you were going to score in the cricket match?

Agree with Surfer. Far too much middle class pie-eaty < see what I did there?

Damn right. I remember I was down south and asked if they had any cheese savory stotties. They looked at me like I was a nutcase...

It was how you said it not what you said! 😉

Is it true that scottish Greggs make deep fried saussage rolls ?

Binners may need to move further north.

I support my local bakers, it's abit like supporting your local bike shop, just more cakey.

As for sausage rolls, it's pink muck piped into a fatty pastry, no thank you.

Not Greggs, but was in Asda today. KitKat Chunkies at the checkout - 60p each or three for £1.

Really is no wonder people get suckered into buying more than they need.
