  • Didn't see the chocolates in Guildford either, but from the online menu I assumed these were instead of the wine not the rose.

    Saved £10.74 on usual price, used Spend £20 and save £5 voucher and had £5 of reward vouchers, so whole thing cost me the usual £10 so well chuffed! SA looked totally unimpressed by my vouchers!

    Where do you get those from?

    Thanks

  • I have a M&S credit card simply to get the vouchers etc. They sent me some money saving ones with my reward vouchers.

    If I am buying something expensive (holiday, sofa etc) and have the money I always use my M&S card and get the reward vouchers, which is the other £5 I saved.

    My local M&S Simply Food store doesn't sell alcohol so they had a choice of 2 different boxes of chocs instead.

    We had the option of mint chocs in Oxford too instead of the rose... much better :)

    Was very impressed, saved just under £15 and used up the last of my guft card from Christmas :)

    I chose a £3.49 box of chocolate mints instead of the rose.

    Thanks for pointing this out or I wouldn't have noticed - I didn't see that option mentioned anywhere in store! I asked a member of staff and she had to go out the back to get a box!!

    the chocolates were the only option for my store, no chocolates at all.
