A Bolton chippy has offered free food for life to its customers - but there is a catch.
Chip&Go in Bolton have put on a special offer - get a tattoo of the chippy's logo and you'll be entitled to a meal a day for life.
Owner, Sebastian Coman, said: "Last Saturday I had a lot of people coming back after they had the food, just praising it and saying how good it was.
"Every day I get a couple of people coming back letting me know the food was really good.
"It just went through my mind, if they are enjoying the food this much, would they get a tattoo of the logo?"
Sebastian put a humorous post on the takeaway's Facebook page about it, but what started as a joke soon became reality as punters took up the offer.
He said: "A lot of people were joking around, but then some were saying they'll do it.
"Then I had people message me asking about the size and the logo, being serious."

The first five people who get a tattoo will get the free food. Three people have already told Sebastian they are going to, but two spots remain.
He added: "People can do it on any part of their body, any size, but it needs to be visible every time they collect their food.
"As long as they have the tattoo, they will have free food in my shop."
The first has already taken Sebastian up on the offer and got his Chip&Go tattoo - Kev Taylor.
Kev, better known as resident DJ at the Three Crowns on Deansgate, Mysta Brightside, actually enjoys the feeling of being tattooed.
He said: "It will save me £316 a year. I get it once a week, I just thought I'll be the first one to do it. I really, really like Chip&Go.
"I do adverts for him anyway, little posts for Facebook, so this is more of that. I'm the resident DJ at the Three Crowns, so everyone will see me.
"It's absolutely brilliant, I found it by accident a few years ago. We try, religiously, to go every Friday at 2.30pm.
"You can't eat for better in Bolton for the money, it's just that good. All of the family comes, we always meet there."
Kev got the tattoo on October 9, done by artist Jeff Robby.
He added: "Just get yourselves down to Chip&Go, it's the best place in Bolton. Big up Sebastian, we call him the Chip God."
