Students can claim a free treat at Greggs - here's how
Greggs is giving students an extra sweetener for the start of term, offering a free sweet treat or savoury item with the purchase of any sandwich deal.
Students looking to bag a bake on their way to lectures just need to present a Student Beans ID page or valid student card when buying a full sandwich deal. They can then enjoy a sausage roll, vegan sausage roll, or cheese and onion bake free of charge.

Greggs reopening
Greggs began reopening after lockdown in early July for takeaway only, and had plans to reopen 1,000 sites by mid-July.
The Newcastle-based business took a tentative approach to reopening, with management keen to avoid any rushes or overcrowding at sites following its three-month closure.
A statement at the time said, “We are not able to predict the impact of social distancing on our ability to trade or on customer demand. However, our capacity to operate will be restricted by size of shop and we must anticipate that sales may be lower than normal for some time.

“In anticipation of lower sales, we have limited our initial product range to our best sellers and therefore a number of our manufacturing operational teams will remain furloughed until demand reaches a level that justifies the addition of remaining product lines.”
During lockdown, Greggs posted recipe videos on how to make some of its most popular treats, including steak bake and chicken bake.
