Several items now have 2 reduction stickers, including a cardigan that I paid £12 now being £7...just off to find my receipt
Seems like they have speeded this sale up. No shortage of bargain hunters either, M&S was mobbed today, mainly by tough elderly ladies ramming people with wheelie bags
I can cook and sew, make flowers grow.0 -

Hi Stormbreaker,
I sure hope so! but they will have their work cut out for them!!!
For £2 they are worth a go, would not have paid full price for them0 -

Hmmmm I'm annoyed.
The morning after I placed my order (midnight just after it went live) I got an e-mail to say one baby item was out of stock. But when I went straight back on the site to see if I could get a bigger size the size I wanted was still available, so I ordered it.
I have now had both despatch e-mails.
Would I be able to claim back the 2nd lot of p&p if I complained? Any experiences please?0
