WITH its trademark savory sausage rolls and array of delicious treats, it would be hard to think of how the popular bakery chain Greggs could improve.
But some foodies recently discovered the answer after finding a Greggs store and shopping for countless deals starting at just 20p.

Greggs outlets have been popping up in the UK for a while now, with 30 stores and counting in total.
Originally opened to support socially deprived areas, the stores sell heavily discounted food for up to 75% less than its regular retail price.
This is because they only stock goodies that normal stores can’t sell, or products that the factory has made too many of.
And if you’re lucky enough to live around the corner from one of The Outlets, you’re a big winner, as social media user @insideourrelationship found out.
TikTok’s @insideourrelationship, run by couple Hiren and Maggie, uploaded a video captioned simply: “Greggs Exit.”
They then recorded footage from inside the store, telling their 16,200 followers about their excitement.
They explained, “Today we came across this outlet from Greggs.
“Everything here is greatly reduced.”
As they captured the well-stocked shelves, they continued, “So how it works is everything Greggs didn’t sell yesterday, they put it in this outlet and they sell it at a reduced price.
“So there’s less stuff they have to throw away, which is great.”
They then showed off some of the amazing discounts on offer, starting with four of the shop’s much-loved vegan sausage rolls.
They explained: “They’re £1.55; they’re normally £1.10 each, I think, if I remember correctly.”
TikTok users also gave their followers a look at the cakes on offer, as they revealed that they started from just 20p.
They went on to say, “I also bought 2 ice cream buns for 55p, which is crazy because they’re supposed to be £1 something each.”
There were also muffins up for grabs for 55p, four donuts for 55p and sandwiches averaging £1.
However, the duo were quick to warn their followers about one thing about the stores, which are mostly located in the north.
They said: “The only thing is that everything is cold.
“They won’t warm you up at all.”
But that didn’t stop them from singing The Outlet’s praises, saying they were “impressed” and would “definitely be back.”
