Pastry lovers can snap up a pizza slice and regular hot or cold drink meal deal for £3.50 before 4pm seven days a week.

But wait until after 4pm and the price drops to £2.85 – almost 20% cheaper.

It means shoppers can save themselves 65p just by waiting a few minutes extra to order.

Anyone looking to snap up the offer can do so at the vast majority of Greggs’ stores, subject to availability.
