WETHERSPOONS will slash the price of a pint to as little as 99p in the New Year. It forms part of the budget boozer's January sale with venues across England and Wales cutting prices on alcohol. The event will run from Thursday, January 2 until January 16.
Meanwhile, in Scotland, the same event will run from Friday, January 3 until January 16. It means customers have around two weeks to enjoy the discount. A total of 750 of the pubs will be participating in the event. It gives punters the chance to pick up a pint of Ruddles for £1.29 down from its current price of £1.79.
The average sale prices across the pubs include a pint of Worthington’s at 99p, a pint of Belhaven at £1.49 and a pint of Doom Bar at £1.49. More than 650 of the pubs will be offering a glass of Coldwater Creek wine (250ml) for £2.49 and almost all of the pubs will be serving low and alcohol-free drinks for £1.49.
In addition, 660 of the pubs will serve Lavazza coffee, tea and hot chocolate (including refills) for £1.29, usually costing £1.59. And the no-frills boozer is not only giving pub-goers the chance to save on drinks. Come January, customers can also enjoy savings on food with prices starting at £2.99.
This includes a choice of any of its savoury muffins. The sale also includes three burger meal deals. The average price across the pubs is £6.52 when you include an alcoholic drink or £4.99 when you choose a non-alcoholic drink. Wetherspoon founder and chairman Tim Martin said: "Department stores and shops hold their sales in January, so it was a perfect time to have a sale in the pubs too.".
