Lidl has sent shoppers into a frenzy with the release of their gigantic ‘gravy yachts’ – capable of holding five litres of gravy – but keen shoppers have to act quick to avoid disappointment.
The gargantuan gravy carriers are designed to ensure that no one at the Christmas dinner table goes short on gravy this festive season.
Announcing a limited edition run, Lidl confirmed it will roll out just 100 two-litre ‘yachts’ and only a mere five of the near nine-pint ‘superyachts’.
This surge for oversized gravy vessels was spurred on by Lidl’s previous year’s data, which saw gravy sales peak to one unit per second on December 22nd, right in the thick of Yuletide celebrations.
Shoppers eager to snag these monumental gravy boats need to sail over to www.lidlgravyyachts.co.uk by the stroke of midnight on Friday 29th November to take part in the much-anticipated giveaway.
Adding a dash of panache, the colossal gravy vessels come as part of a bundle complete with a ‘Captain Gravy’ cap – because, as the retail heavyweight declares, “loving gravy isn’t just a lifestyle, it’s an identity.”
Included in these sought-after bundles is a voucher redeemable for a complimentary jar of Deluxe Gravy Granules and what’s billed as a ‘chic’ nautical neckerchief.
But Lidl advises enthusiasts to be quick off the mark if they wish to secure this inimitable showpiece for their Christmas Day spread, as the window of opportunity closes rapidly tomorrow.
