God only knows the meat content of the sausages and caged hen eggs...
Really, for a quid, have cereal from Aldi/Lidl.
That will last you a week and not be 'mechanically removed'.
There are plenty of ways to have a healthy, cheap breakfast - daily
No wonder people laugh at the state of this country..

They can't help it; it's a lonely life being sad and vindictive, they need human contact.

Except on a Saturday night
Didn't post as I didn't fancy all the usual rubbish banter from the far too critical members who come on, the anti-Scouse and the 'all of a sudden' snobs here who turn their nose up at a cheap bit of grub.
Good for you OP. Let us know how the brekky is if you get one
Because they will buy 60,000 sausages at once, not a packet of 6 like you do, which also has to be transported to the shop, stored, refrigerated and sold by a "Server monkey" all while on the shops premises.
Unlike you yes?
Voting cold for something costing too little on a deals site? Moronic.
Closing down sale due to poundcafes...Goodbye greasy spoon!!
Isn't this what happened to all the local shops once the superstores started undercutting them, and then wiped them from the face of the high street!
Have to agree, i would struggle to buy the ingredients to make a breakfast for a pound, so how do they buy it, employ a cook and some type of server monkey, premises and still operate a profit.
300 customers on day one only equates to £300
Yuuuuuup!
Transit you named after where you were conceived?
However, i'm sure that everyone knows that margin in things like cups of tea/coffee are in the 80%+ area.
Four items for £1 and you are probably getting close to 50% if you by cheaper produce.
Its the upsells of other items, the volumes and publicity making it a viable business.
As for Poundbakery. Love the concept. Greggs used to be like that before starting to put their prices up.
Historically, eggs have been considered unhealthy because they contain cholesterol.
A large egg contains 212mg of cholesterol, which is a lot compared to most other foods.
However, it has been proven, time and time again, that eggs and dietary cholesterol do NOT adversely affect cholesterol levels in the blood.
In fact, eggs raise HDL (the good) cholesterol. They also change LDL cholesterol from small, dense LDL (which is bad) to large LDL, which is benign (1, 2, 3).
A new meta-analysis published in 2013 looked at 17 prospective studies on egg consumption and health. They discovered that eggs had no association with either heart disease or stroke in otherwise healthy people (4).
This isn’t new data. Multiple older studies have led to the same conclusion (5, 6).
Bottom Line: Despite the fear mongering of the past few decades, eating eggs and cholesterol has no association whatsoever with heart disease.
** However fried eggs a fried slice, black pudding and a cup of tea with 10 sugars may not be particularly healthy for you
Ah I see - I didn't realise that was how to define compassion - only given to the deserving. Try empathy too.
If you've ever been unemployed or without lots of spare cash you'd know just how grindingly depressing it can be having no 'treats' (treats, ffs we're talking of £1 meals out here!) and to have to continually count and recount every penny. My last observation on the deal which seems a good deal to many.
Presumably, the breakfast might be a quid but they'll have other stock to make the margins needed.

The deal link is to a local paper story. It says 'The standard four-item breakfast menu costs a £1 but each additional item is just 25p each while drinks and desserts, including cakes and gingerbread men, are priced at either 50p or £1.'
Now I can pop in for a Breakfast while picking up my £1 zajazzle kit from next door.

... and a PoundPub to round it off!
Don't forget that a lot of folk don't come here for deals - they come to get a buzz out of sneering at others.
Not moronic, just a little bit sad.
i really wish i could swear now.
