Get £5 For Getting Rid Of Old Clothes

georgiarose1

Hey guys,

Fist post, be nice.

Just to let you know if you donate your old Marks and Spencers clothes to Oxfam, then you get £5 voucher, which is perfect for christmas cards. I have saved around £10.

cheers, let me know if anyone has a go.

Can you tell me how you actually get this please.

This "offer" has been around for ages now - but whenever I take a load of clothes in to the Oxfam shop I am just told "oh put them through there"....into the back room, whilst staff carry on with whatever they are doing.

Do I have to stand there waving my M&S bits and ask for the voucher.....or what ??
thanks

Probably, yes

how many items have to be from M&S to qualify for the voucher?

I thought the voucher was something like £5 off a £30 spend so not so good

'Bring the M&S clothes you no longer wear to any of Oxfam’s 700+ high street shops in the UK and 40 shops in Ireland, and you’ll get a voucher giving you £5 (or €7 in Ireland) off when you spend £35 (or €50) or more on clothing, homeware or beauty products in M&S.'

I've tried to bring mine in & they told me they had to much & to take them to another charity.

Hi all,

I've done this a couple of times - I took a large carrier bag (a bit bigger than a Tesco one) full of clothes, with the Marks & Spencer item/s on the top, with the label showing.
When I went in the shop I showed the assistant the M&S label and asked if the offer was still on, and she ripped out a voucher from a booklet.
Be warned though, that you have to spend the £5 voucher (when you spend £35!) before the end of that month, so it's worth going in early in the month and then you have more time to think about how you want to spend it.

lynn would it not be better if they have tags to sell them on ebay you would get more than a fiver i am sure? I hope that does not offend i just wondered. Perhaps i am just tight lol

maysie , i reckon you are dead right . m& s always a good seller and well worth ebaying. amazing how much you can get for clothes on ebay - even good quality worn ones are good sellers never mind BNWT! (brand new with tags) get' em on there and get 'em flogged and hopefully raise enough to replace them. good luck lynn 44.
