Costa has suspended their meal deal until after Christmas
Fans of the Costa meal deal, we must warn you not to shoot the messenger.
The offer has been rescinded, at least for the time being, meaning youll have to pay full price for lunch combos.
The previous deal was £4.95 for a toastie, a small or medium hot drink, and a pack of crisps, fruit, or popcorn.
It was available between 11am and 2pm, making it a perfect option for lunchtime.
Customers have expressed their anger at the coffee chain on Twitter, after getting to stores only to find that there were no more cheap toastie meals.
Costa got rid of their meal deal and Im heartbroken

.@CostaCoffee I've been into Costa (Beeston NG9 2JG) and to my dismay was told by them that they no longer do/sell the lunch meal deal (i.e toasties with hot drinks), as of yesterday!! Needless to say, I left the items and walked out.

Went in for my meal deal @CostaCoffee to be told its finished yet the advertising is still on display on the shelves. Mislead us why dont you Costa? Answer in store: if we take the signs down well have none as weve not been sent replacements. Very poor pic.twitter.com/yViuPhdSEu

It seems it isnt a permanent change, however, and is simply due to the fact the offers change around every few months.

A Costa spokesperson told Metro.co.uk:
The Costa Coffee Meal Deal was removed from stores in November as we introduced our limited edition Christmas menu. We will be re-introducing our meal deal, with some exciting new options early next year.
As long as you can hold off until January, your meal deals will be back as promised.
There are plenty of other options in the store to tide you over, from bonfire spiced drinks to a pigs in blankets mac and cheese.
