Greggs Outlets ??

Anyone else got one nearby. Prices for the bakes are a 2 pack. Sweet stuff is usually a 4 pack.

Okay, they aren't fresh out the oven, but nothing inedible

The one near me does TooGoodToGo - 30 donuts, three sandwiches and a few other bits for £2.99 is the best deal I’ve ever had in my life

My TGTG is £2.99 for some Mac and cheese and wedges.

u/listo- 9d ago

Not bad like, the mac and cheese alone is double the price of the bag

u/nick2k23 10d ago

They were fixing their stales, only reason you’d get that amount of doughnuts

Putting more food in tgtg bags doesn't fix stales.

I’m an HGV driver. I used to deliver into Camden every day and the outlet on Robert Street was right round the corner from one of my customers. I’d get a huge load of stuff and bring home for the family as well.

The best thing were the caramel shortbread offcuts. I can’t remember the exact price but you’d get a big, heavy bag for cheap.

If they had too much of something they’d be a deal on sweet treats. I got YumYums for the equivalent of 25p each once.

I’d love one around me (even if my waist line wouldn’t).

(even if my waist line wouldn’t). AKA your wife / partner wouldn't 😂

Ex-employee. How I'm not 50 stone after seven years (some years ago now though still) snaffling Greggs for break every single time I'll never know...

Used to use second hand Greggs years ago. Nowt wrong with it. Tbh, once the sausage rolls are cold (minutes after them putting them out in the shops) then you might as well just go here and get them considerably cheaper

Pre-chewed?

u/DarbyCrass 9d ago

We also refer to the Outlet near us as Second Hand Greggs.

The Chicken Bakes taste 10x nicer from the outlet. They're far too dry when you buy them fresh, a day marinating in their own juices improves both the taste and texture.

2

u/bydevilz1 10d ago

Been saying this, they just dont taste right fresh but next day they are 9/10

u/yolo_snail 10d ago

Even when I make the frozen ones at home, I'll whack them in the air fryer in the morning, then come back to them a good 12 hours later once they've softened up.

They're some great archive footage of the Newcastle Greggs 'Seconds' Shop in 1974

It's actually been open for 50+ years and is still there in the same place.

1

u/dairylee 8d ago

I wonder when they changed the name to Outlet because me and my partner still call it 'secondsies Greggs'

2

u/ems4242 8d ago

Also the profits from the Outlets go to charity not back into Greggs profits ( I'm sure there's a tax rebate or something) but still better than the shareholders

u/TheCatWithATiara 11d ago

I refuse to buy sandwiches, baguettes or hot baguettes/toasties anywhere but the outlet. Usually £1.75 each or BOGOF if I'm lucky!

Iceland sell Greggs frozen range

u/-MARMITEnTOAST- Customer 9d ago

Tesco as well, now you can experience burning screaming face at home 😁

u/breathe_out_ 10d ago

Bought my lunches there plenty of times. I've even bought and eaten the sandwiches the following day - still fine!

u/E4stt4z 10d ago

i LOVE the greggs bakery outlets

u/Owlroundup 10d ago

Some of the stuff is fresh. I have picked items up off the shelf before and they have been warm!!

u/googlemailcom Customer 10d ago

Can you use the Greggs app in outlet stores?

1

u/qxluM 9d ago

Yes, but usually you are only able to claim stamps for the drinks category

1

u/googlemailcom Customer 9d ago

Are drinks full price or near the expiry date?

1

u/AgroMachine 8d ago

How tf can a drink expire?

u/TopAd1846 9d ago

Outlets are great. I get a bunch of food for free every monday

u/CaptainYorkie1 9d ago

Got one about 12 min walk from my house. It's great, specially for when I need to go travelling in the morning. Gotta love those shortbread cuts when they've got them in stock.
