PUB giant Wetherspoons is dropping the price of ales, spirits and lagers to as low as £1.79 this week.
The vast majority of the chain’s 800 branches will see the reduced prices on menus within days.
From Wednesday (September 18), 700 boozers will be able to bag a pint from £1.79 or a shot of Bell’s whisky and a mixer for the same price.
Meanwhile, you’ll be able to grab a pint of Stowford Press apple cider or a vodka mixer for £1.99.
And in more good news, Wetherspoons has confirmed that there is currently no end date set for these price reductions.
The full list of discount drinks includes:
Following the cuts, pub goers will be able to save up to 42p. But, keep in mind prices will vary from pub to pub across the country.
This is the average price of the items before the promotion:
This news comes after Wetherspoons slashed the prices of its menu items to mark Tax Equality Day.
It meant punters looking to buy something got a 7.5% discount – so a normal £10 order would have costed £9.25.
Wetherspoons boss Tim Martin called for a 12.5% VAT cut, which he believes would help to prevent pubs, bars and restaurants closing across the UK.
He said: “The biggest threat to the hospitality industry is the vast disparity in tax treatment among pubs, restaurants and supermarkets.
“Supermarkets pay zero VAT in respect of food sales, whereas pubs, bars and restaurants pay 20%.
“This tax benefit allows supermarkets to subsidise the selling price of beer.”
Earlier this month, it slashed the price of a breakfast to £2.99 or less across 650 boozers.
On top of the 650 pubs offering the £2.99 or less offer, a further 129 are offering the small breakfast for £3.99.
The deal applies to Wetherspoon‘s small breakfast, which comes with a fried egg, bacon, Lincolnshire sausage, baked beans and hash brown (or potato scone in Scottish pubs).
Prices for the breakfast option vary across Spoons’ pubs, but normally sets customers back £4.45, meaning a saving of at least 32%.
Punters can add a Lavazza coffee or Twinings tea, as well as free refills, to the £2.99 or £3.99 offer for an extra £1.56.
Hungry customers can also add extras to the breakfast including black pudding, mushrooms, toast and tomatoes.
From next Wednesday, a mix and match of chicken wings, bites and strips, and Quorn nuggets will be available at a reduced price.
Each dish will cost £2.99, but you can mix and match two for £5.49, or three for £7.49.
The Sticky Korean fried chicken bowl and the Sticky Korean fried Quorn “no chicken” bowl have also seen their sales extended, with no end date currently set.
The price of small breakfasts across 650 JD Wetherspoons pubs has also been slashed this month indefinitely, with prices reduced to £2.99.
The deal only applies to the Wetherspoons small breakfast, which includes a fried egg, bacon, Lincolnshire sausage, baked beans and hash brown (or potato scone in Scottish pubs).
While prices do vary across the country, the breakfast would on average cost £4.45, meaning a saving of at least 32%.
