Stormzy receives first Greggs ‘black card’ handing him free pastries for life
Award-winning rapper says he has ‘peaked’ after bakery chain promises unlimited supply He had the first UK No 1 of the decade and was named best male artist at the Brit awards this week. But now Stormzy may have clinched the ultimate accolade: an unlimited supply of Greggs vegan sausage rolls. The high-street bakery chain revealed a “next-level VIP” service for its celebrity fans, with Stormzy being the first member. The rapper said he had “peaked” when he unwrapped the VIP card, which allows him to order Greggs whenever and wherever he wants. He shared a video of him unboxing the gift on Twitter while en route to the airport for the European leg of his world tour. HEAVY IS THE HEAD (@stormzy) Are you mad the first Greggs black card @GreggsOfficial I have peaked this is brilliant 🤣 pic.twitter.com/lnoS71d1Y1 February 20, 2020 While Greggs has refused to disclose much about the special service, it said the membership to the private club was strictly invite-only. Nando’s has a similar “black card” that it sends to celebrities, allowing them to get meals for up to five people at any of their restaurants for free. Stormzy was handed the package on Thursday morning with a video from Greggs. It also sent him a pair of size-12 slippers after he made headlines for mistakenly wearing a pair to the BBC Breakfast TV show. A message inside the box reads: “Get those big size 12s on your feet. We’ll do the rest.” A Greggs spokesperson said: “Our concierge card is strictly by invite only to some of our biggest fans. That’s all we can say.” https://www.theguardian.com/music/20...-free-pastries |

Why do companies insist on giving free stuff to people who can afford their products 100s of times over?

"I also rang companies on the product list you gave me. Fosters menswear said yes if you get a second series, and you wear one garment a week on air. Monza said no to a free caravan and yes to a tow-bar."
"I'll take it. Dolphin Bathrooms?" "No, they said they don't do that sort of thing" "That's rubbish! I know for a fact Martin Lewis got two power showers out of them, one for him and one for his brother-in-law" |

I think it's just promotion really and they gain more business by giving it people like Stormzy because he has the followers. If they give it people like us they wouldn't gain much from it because were aren't Influencers or famous. Just become an youtuber and you will get free stuff you will be great

If he was a decent bloke he'd go and get them and hand them out to the homeless like Paris Hilton did when she got free food for life from BK

No one said he had obligation to do that, but it’s just a nice thing to do isn’t it? You have unlimited free food so make the most of it, surely.

Exactly what I was about to post, get as many as he can and pass them around to the needy.

Don't start. She's bought homeless people food before and regularly gives the homeless cash. She's very charitable.
