Ive had the following info through re the new Wetherspoons promotion which started today as we see...clearly the intent is on recession beating with very cheap meals and indeed drinks on offer all day everyday. see below.
"
The price reductions will start on Monday January 5 and run indefinitely.
The pubs will also be offering five different meals at all times for £2.99, in addition to their regular menu.
Wetherspoon's Chief Executive John Hutson said: "People enjoy going to the pub, however, we appreciate that the economic downturn means that they now have to be more careful with their money.
"We believe that our new food and drink prices will allow people to enjoy a visit to a Wetherspoon pub without it costing them too much.
"Unlike most sales that start in January, our offers will not be ending within days, but will run indefinitely."
The pubs will offer a pint of Greene King IPA for 99p, a bottle of San Miguel for 99p, a bottle of Blossom Hill Rose for £4.99, a single measure of Sailor Jerry rum (and mixer) for £1.29 and a bottle of Jacques cider for £3.99.
The five meals available at £2.99 are;
cottage pie, chips and peas (made with British beef),
ham, eggs and chips (Wiltshire ham, served with two fried free-range eggs),
sausages, baked beans and chips (award-winning Lincolnshire sausages),
spicy tomato pasta and jacket potato and
tuna mayonnaise with a salad.
Mr Hutson said: "We are offering leading brands of drinks at excellent prices and the choice means that there is something on offer to suit most tastes.
"We believe that the five meals offer outstanding quality and value too."
