CALLING all Greggs fans - the bakers is launching its first ever advent calendar.
Forget a tiny chunk of chocolate hiding behind every door, you can enjoy a different Greggs treat every day as you countdown to Christmas 2017.
Each door reveals a tear-off token that can be taken into Greggs’ shops and exchanged for items from the Christmas and wider menu, including the Festive Bake, flavoured lattes, sweet mince pie and a sausage roll (of course).
On Christmas Eve, a £5 gift card sits behind door 24 – but for some lucky customers they will find a surprise £25 gift card.
A limited number of the calendars will go on sale in selected Greggs’ shops from Monday, November 20, until stocks last, priced at £24.
A Greggs spokesman said: “Novelty advent calendars have been around for years, so we thought it was time to take the concept up a notch.
“Fans won’t be disappointed by what’s behind the doors - there’s a delicious Greggs gift to enjoy every day of the December advent season, from sausage rolls to Christmas sandwiches and of course our Festive Bake. It’s the perfect Christmas gift for every Greggs fan.”
Greggs say the calendar is worth between £35 and £60, and the vouchers can be redeemed in shops from December 1 up to and including Christmas Eve. Gift cards are valid for up to 12 months.
