Imagine being a reporter and having to ring Greggs to get a comment on a story like this.

If you work the complaints department of a popular stodge vendor you must know whats coming if you get a call that opens with a heavy sigh, skip hello and just ask "red top or local press?"

What kind of loser goes to the press when your pasty isn't full enough. Quite frankly Paul, if that is your real name, I consider you to be a very disappointing shell.

I'd post his filling to him in a soggy envelope. Every day for the rest of his life.


Did he get paid? If so Fair play to him

How do they find these people? Surely they don't just phone the papers and bang, team coming round

Maybe they go on Facebook and message people. Although in this story it looks like he contacted the media directly.

I assumed Greggs was cash-only anyway

This happened when I went to Sainsbury's a couple of weeks ago, staff were standing either side of the entrance warning everyone it was cash only, needless to say being roundly ignored by a lot of people who were then getting to the checkout and kicking off when they realised they couldn't pay. Apparently it was affecting all Sainsbury's across the country. And something similar happened to McDonalds a few days ago as well, is some superhacking going on or something?

All money in Britain it has been discovered doesn't actually exist, and hasn't for some time.

Thought this was bollocks at first but then I looked in my wallet and it's empty, so...

I stand by what I said.

Glebe

Go on then! Get a nice thick sausage inside you!

Underturd

But how, I'm nowhere near a Greggs!

Glebe

Sure there isn't a whopping tube of pork nearby?

Underturd

Not an easily accessable one.

The "Oh crumbs" thing has severely pissed me off. One for the infantilization thread.

Still, don't cry over spilt milk!*

I imagine it made already mildly annoyed customers further annoyed. It's like those irritating error pages, when something goes wrong, no matter how minor, infantile shit like that just makes it more annoying.

They become vegetarian sausage rolls.

Once the card machine wasn't working in Greggs, so I said I could pay with cash and the woman went "no, no, it's fine, just take it" and I got a free Greggs

I wasn't able to treat myself to a sausage roll. First one in months. Pretty gutting
