M&S Sale

I posted this before the M&S sale - I got slated by other forum users but too be honest it looks like M&S have not improved and I am so glad I didn't wait for an order from them this year.
M&S need to get their act together regarding their online site.
Im sure the people that are happy with their order (myself included) far outweigh the few that have had a problem.
To be honest i dont really see the need for your post, no-one slated you, they simply said don't order then, which you didn't

I had a look and it says if you receive it as a gift and return it you have to have a credit note, but not if you bought it yourself0 -
I went to M&S Marble Arch this evening. Lots of signs advertising "further reductions" but everything bar one or two items is the same price as last week! Ie bras still £9, knickers at £4 etc. I asked a member of staff and they said the price on the label is what the correct price is.0

I went to the Bluewater branch late Friday afternoon and there was still quite a lot of gear to be had in the Men's department, although the stuff they had was still there because it was over-priced for what it was, ie they had items that were sticking because there were so many of them and no further reductions appear to have been attempted. Bought a couple of things, but no sign of new lines being added.
In general, Bluewater was heaving; there was certainly no sign of a recession! However, walking round the shopping centre revealed that some shops appear to be running stock down, I assume in advance of a downturn. Zavvi, for example, was worryingly empty in the CD department!
Could it be that the good citizens of the UK will once again shop the country out of a recession?0 -
They seemed to have a lot of stock in Trafford Centre yesterday. I went over to the new homeware shop and bought 4 Autograph silk cushions that were reduced from £35 to £7 each. Better still, they went through on 3 for 2 so I ended up paying £21 for all 4 rather than £140! They also had quite a lot of gift wrap in for £1 a roll and some of it was quite generic and can be used all year round.0

We're not just a few. After I emailed them this time about the contradictory and misleading emails that led up to them cancelling the whole order, I had a phone call to apologise, saying I was far from alone, and that they are 'very aware' of the failings of their online stock control.0 -
