If you are 55 or over and go to Morrisons on Tuesday between 2:30 and 5:30 you will be able to claim a free mince pie and hot drink. I will give it a miss as the petrol would cost more than going local!

I have a Waitrose and can have a free coffee and newspaper each time I visit! 😎

I thought they had stopped the free coffee, I always pay for mine now but get a free paper.

Will have to check it out as the last few months I have been using the bus and legs every few days. I have only been getting the free paper as I haven't a third arm to hold the coffee! 😀

P. S. Was it your branch where the following conversation took place? I imagine it could be urban myth though!

Customer:"Were these Partridges shot?"

Butcher:"No Madam, we managed to talk them into surrendering"

I think you still get the free coffee but you now have to buy something first. Previously, you didn't have to make a purchase.

You only have to pay in the cafe, it's free from the machine ☕️

There would be an uproar if they stopped it after all this time. They still give it but you have to take your own cup.

Well I definitely meet the qualifying criteria but I think I'll have to give that a miss - due to go for a session in rehab gym Tuesday afternoon, probably wouldn't look good if I rang up and cancelled due to a conflicting appointment with a free mince pie offer in Morrisons! 😊

Great. Thanks for this, I will make sure I go through the rotating doors in ours and have another. 😁

Hmmmm, you'd have to admit to being over 55, is a mince pie & hot drink worth it??? 🤔

But it would make your day if you were challenged to prove your age! 😁

Lezzers in reply toMichaelJH

But what if I'm not challanged! 😢

Strangely I bought 9 bottles of wine yesterday and was asked to prove my age - 66, balding, grey hair etc. I don't carry anything like that but they did allow me to continue with the purchase.

At least they don't do the 1000 calorie, day's worth of carb Christmas drinks like the coffee chains!

So who claimed their free coffee and mince pie?

Lezzers profile image
Lezzers in reply toMichaelJH

Not me, too far to drive!

MichaelJH profile image
MichaelJHHeart Star in reply toLezzers

Yes, a gallon+ of petrol for me or three buses! I did have an Americano in Costa though. Quite a few seem to drink these concoctions though.

Not what you're looking for?
