Giant Gingerbread Man £2

Options
Thought these were great, fun presents.

Greggs are selling huge Gingerbread Men with Christmas hats for £2

I think they are a bargain!

    £2.55 delivered at IWOOT - straight to your door and in a gift box!
  • Personally I prefer the one from Greggs. It is much more christmassy! Has a Santa hat on. It comes in sellophane with card to the back so nicely presented too.
  • Plus it is getting close to Christmas now so I personally wouldn't want to rely on the post.
  • Thank you I had looked at the ones on IWOOT but I think I will go for Greggs. Not only cheaper but no doubt fresher and tastier too. There is no way that the IWOOT ones were ever worth £12.99, just a tactic to get people buying them at the 'fantastic' discounted price.
    Comping wishlist for 2017

  • Thanks! Sounds great for the 'perfect man' gift listed in festive fivers.

    THE PERFECT MANgingerbreadman2.jpg
    They say good men are hard to find
    I know this to be true
    But I hunted far and wide
    And found one just for you!

    He is no good at DIY
    He cannot fix the car
    But his socks are never smelly
    And he doesn't stray too far

    He always listens patiently
    And won't pester you in bed
    If you get fed up with him
    You just bite off his head!

    I'm going to get one to go in my housemate's hamper.
  • Here's a link to Greggs gingerbread man and a link to IWOOT gingerbread man. I spotted one in John Lewis the other day for £5 too, looked wicked - link to John Lewis gingerbread page.

    I'm gonna have a go at baking my own giant gingerbread man this year as I really want to make one that looks like Gingy from Shrek!

    You did help thank you :) I decided on the iwoot offer with the 15% off code I ordered the giant gingerbread boy and giant candy cane for £2.54 each they will be a lovely finishing touch to my families stockings.
    I also ordered another roll off the Christmas Pudding Bin Bags they were £9.99! I just bought them for £2.54 but they've just shot up to £6.99!

    Thanks so much OP and tattybonce :beer:
