The clocks are finally going forward this weekend, marking lighter evenings and what feels like the official start of spring.
But the one downside is that we’ll all lose an hour in bed on Sunday, which is always a bit of a killer.
Thankfully there are 2000 free coffees and breakfasts being handed out across the nation to soften the blow a little.
Deliveroo has teamed up with some of the biggest cafe brands in the country to give away thousands of £7 vouchers, which can be spent on hot drinks and breakfast items.
The vouchers will be available to tired Brits on Sunday 26 March – the day the clocks go forward – from 7am.

Aisha Jefferson from Deliveroo said: “We know that losing an hour of valuable sleep will be a shock to the system for many of our customers. That’s why, for one day only, Deliveroo is giving away thousands of free hot drinks and breakfast items from much-loved partners, Starbucks, Caffè Nero or LEON, to help bring a smile to the nation’s faces.”
You can redeem them against any hot drinks and breakfast dishes from Starbucks, LEON, Joe & The Juice, Pret A Manger and Caffe Nero.
Those Sunday scariescould be softened with a LEON avocado and halloumi muffin, alongside a Moju ginger shot, for just 18p with a Deliveroo voucher.
Or you could get a bacon and egg muffin with a side of hash browns, or a pot of porridge with a latte, completely covered by your voucher.
Deliveroo’s other suggested breakfast orders include a plant-based sausage ciabatta with a tea from Caffe Nero, and a full breakfast bundle with a big discount from Joe & The Juice.
The £7 voucher code NOYAWNSHERE will go live at 7am on Sunday 26 March, to the first 2000 Deliveroo customers to place an order.

Nostalgic ready-to-drink Breezer makes UK return after a decade
Daisy Jackson
An iconic ready-to-drink favourite has launched back into the UK – oh yes, Breezer is back.
First launched in the 1990s, Breezers – then pitched as an ‘alcopop’ – were a staple on dancefloors and at barbecues right across the UK.
And now Bacardi has decided to bring these delicious, fruity, easy-drinking bottles back to British shores.
There are three new flavours to try as Breezers return to your fridges – Zesty Orange, Zingy Lime, and Crisp Watermelon.
And Breezer launched back into Manchester last night with a suitably memorable party, turning a spot in the Northern Quarter into a corner shop.
The ‘local Cornerbop’ was stacked with your usual essentials, plus shelf after shelf of these colourful glass ready-to-drink bottles.

The Breezer relaunch party saw Tarsza and Rennie Peters spinning nostalgic anthems with a modern twist at a pop-up party in a corner shop.
Steve Young, business unit director for Bacardi in the UK & Ireland, said: “We know there is a lot of love for Breezer in the UK, and we are confident a new generation of consumers will fall in love with the new Breezer.
“RTDs are booming, however, the Flavoured Alcoholic Beverages category could do with a bit more excitement. By bringing back Breezer we’re definitely putting the fruity taste into FAB.”
The iconic ready-to-drink classic is back – and better than ever.
Drinks prices for Manchester Oasis gigs announced – and you’ll be pleasantly surprised
Daisy Jackson
The prices of drinks at Heaton Park for the five huge Manchester Oasis shows have been released in advance.
With the Gallagher brothers reuniting on stage in their hometown for the first time this weekend (and then again next week), it’s a huge moment for our city.
Those lucky enough to snag tickets have already forked out a small fortune to witness this moment in history (still scarred from the dynamic pricing debacle).
And most of us were probably bracing to spend another small fortune on beers at the Oasis Manchester gigs.
But you might be pleasantly surprised at the drinks prices up at Heaton Park for Oasis Live ’25.
It’s now been confirmed that pints of lager and cider will be just £6.50.
Before you turn your nose up, remember that pints at our two arenas – the AO Arena and Co-op Live are now sitting around the £9 mark.
Prices for other drinks, like wine and spirits, we’ll have to wait until Friday to see.
Heaton Park will also be the home of the ‘largest beer garden’ and the longest bars in the city for the Oasis reunion.
With a major heatwave predicted for the first shows, fans are being encouraged to stay hydrated (on WATER, not beer, please).
Ticket-holders will be allowed to bring a sealed bottle of water up to 500ml in with you, but it must be collapsible plastic.
Solid plastic and metal containers will be rejected on safety grounds.
There’s a free water point on site where you can fill up your bottles again.
Oasis will perform at Heaton Park in Manchester on 11, 12, 16, 19 and 20 July.
