A COUPLE who have vowed to keep saving the pennies after a £1,000,000 Euromillions win have now upgraded from Greggs to Caffè Nero.
Graeme and Katherine White are determined to stay grounded after their Euromillions success.
They are still committed to their careers with the police service, despite becoming millionaires.
Although the couple have said they will keep watching the pennies, they have allowed themselves one important upgrade.
They now treat themselves to a Caffè Nero , rather than a Greggs.

Graeme said: “We both laughed at our first little upgrade – as we treated ourselves to a Nero’s instead of the usual Greggs coffee."
And they have decided to reduce their hours with the police, to achieve a better work-life balance.
They now plan to move to the country and enjoy a trip to Disneyland.
Graeme said: "We always wanted to live somewhere rural with plenty of outdoor space for the children - and so we could keep some chickens and goats."
Graeme explained that as coppers, the couple were initially suspicious that the win might not be true.
He said: "With us both being police officers we see lots of scams so we were a touch suspicious."
Recalling the moment the news was broken to them , he said: "As we strolled around B&M absentmindedly the phone rang. I took the call and the guy on the phone confirmed the win and actually said ‘Congratulations, you’re a millionaire!’.
“I looked at Katherine and she whooped and then welled up. I don’t know what the other shoppers must have made of us!”
Meanwhile winner Toni Henderson, 32, said that she initially thought she'd won only a tiny fraction of the cash after merely scanning her eyes over her ticket.
But even when she saw the seven-figure sum on her screen - and reality sunk in - the mum-of-one went back to work.

The County Durham woman said: “There are no words to express how you feel. I had this excited butterfly feeling having the win officially confirmed and then seeing all of the zeros in my bank account.
"You sit and think about what you’d do all the time if you won, but then, when it happens, you don’t know what to do."
