We have recently changed the price of Mega Pints.
As you may have noticed we have made some changes to the Mega Monday’s promotion.
Initially, Mega Pints were removed from The Den however after feedback from Students; your Sabbatical Officers have made the decision to return them to The Den’s drinks menu.
However, they will now be sold at the value of what the glass contains – two pints.
When the Mega Pint financials were looked into it was discovered that they are not financially viable and were incurring losses throughout the year.
As a charity, we cannot make losses as this will impact what we can offer to enhance your experience at Solent University. Yes, this is a business decision but made with the future of your Students’ Union and your experience at University central to the process that resulted in this outcome.
There were also ethical questions raised about selling two pints worth of alcohol at such reduced rates. For the welfare of students and in line with our responsible drinking policy combined with the financial implications the decision was made to price Mega Pints at an appropriate level.
You can still buy a Mega Pint and they have been returned to The Den, however they are now appropriately priced.
