An estate agents has come under fire after claiming first-time buyers can save £8,000 towards a house deposit if they stop buying Greggs.
DM & Co Homes took to social media platform TikTok to point out that those who spend £5 on their breakfast every morning at the popular bakery could instead put that money towards a deposit on a property.
The estate agents pointed out that people could save £35 per week, £140 a month and £1,680 a year if they purchased Greggs seven days a week. This equates to a total of £8,400 over five years - which is around the amount needed for a 5% deposit on a £175,000 property.
