This is what i happend while on my lunch break today.......

Decided for a change (as not been for ages) to go to Greggs, I ponderd over the pasties for a few moments and picked a Sausage & Bean Melt as not had one of those for say 12 months or so, During Eating it I found it was just Mushed up Beans and no Sausage as all!

(now I know when Greggs first brought these out about 2 or 3 years ago there used to be 2 full sausages inside packed with Beans, now it's credit crunch time so they reduced this to chopping the sausages up and you would get 4 or 5 sausage sizable chunks too in there)

But the one I had didnt have any so having just a bite left I went back into the shop and told the girl who served me, she apologized & offerd me another I took it and right there in the shop I felt it and I didnt feel no lumps of what would be sausage having breaking it open again just mush.....I said "theres none in there either" she called the manager over I explained and the Manager apologized, I said "I dont want an apology I want a Sausage & Bean Melt with some sausage in it come on it's the Principle.....

Having *** for tat for a few minutes other customers inside & outside the shop by now had noticed my complaint as I was not quiet about it...LOL they started to complain that there pasties had not much filling in there too....!
in all there was about 8 people saying the same and demanded answers.

After a long argument we got the Manager to admit they had been cutting back on fillings recently......At last we had cause for fault and after some more discussen the manager offerd us this deal:-

All 8 of us was given our Money back, a managers bussiness card that she had written separate codes on for each of us and was told to present this card when ordering and we would be given free food upto the value of £5 per day for 1 month! we was also told that the fillings will be put back to normal from now on, they also removed the remaining pasties off the shelves.

Epic Win in my eyes.... LOL
 
Haha nice.

I enjoyed their Chicken and Stuffing ones recently, thought they were tasty! Oddly though it had hardly any stuffing in, I suppose that's good as you'd want more chicken anyway.

Never had the balls to complain in there, I feel like I've entered a 3rd world when in greggs, the staff and colours make me depressed.
 
Only £5 a day for a month. With a little blackmail I bet you could double that.

At first we was offerd a week, we all laughed at that.

Why go there in the 1st place it's complete ****

Well it's nice now & then I normally go for there freshly made sandwiches but it was later than usual my lunch today so all had been sold.

Not sure what im going to do going Greggs for dinner every day now for a month! will end up putting on weight! lol

Fairplay to each thier own... Although i still believe every product of theirs is tainted by the fact it's greggs!
