If you’re sick of crappy chocolate advent calendars and want something genuinely warming and delicious every morning, then Greggs might have just the answer.

They’ve just launched their first ever Greggsmas advent calendar.

Billed as ‘the ultimate Christmas gift for every Greggs fan’, each door will reveal a tear-off token which can be taken into a Greggs and exchanged for a different treat on their Christmas menu every day.

We’re talking Festive bakes, mince pies, sausage rolls and various lattes.


On Christmas Eve, excitable chompers will find a £5 gift card behind door 24.

And if they’re really lucky, they’ll find a surprise £25 gift card instead.



Each door also houses a unique Greggs festive scene, from kissing a Festive Bake under the mistletoe to shepherds paying a nativity homage to a sausage roll in a manger.

There are only a limited number of calendars about and they’ll go on sale in Gregg’s shops from Monday 20 November until stocks last.

A Greggs spokesperson says: ‘Novelty advent calendars have been around for years, so we thought it was time to take the concept up a notch.

‘Fans won’t be disappointed by what’s behind the doors – there’s a delicious Greggs gift to enjoy every day of the December advent season, from sausage rolls to Christmas sandwiches and of course our infamous Festive Bake. It’s the perfect Christmas gift for every Greggs fan.’

The calendars cost £24 but are actually worth up to £60, with vouchers being redeemable from 2 December up to and including 24 December.

Gift cards are valid for an entire year.

You know what to do.
