    This is the main one:

    The party food is really good value, some is even under half price. The other offers running include:

    The really big seller is the bogof on the tubs of nuts.

    The first 1p day is only for &more card holders and premium card holders, although there is another one for everyone else later on. Will check the details at work tomorrow. There will only be enough stuff to serve the first couple of hundred customers at each store, and at my store (Teesside Park), people were waiting outside the doors before I even started work at 7am! We don't open til 9am!

    Edit - the first 1p day is wednesday for card holders, and the 2nd one is friday for non card holders

    There’s also M&S Connoisseur Christmas Pudding, was £9.99, now £4.99.

    Funny how the current 'normal' price of these is £6.99 (454g size) - which suggests that the 'original' £9.99 price was inflated so that they could do a 'half price' offer. I know that some supermarkets do this all the time (especially Mr T) but I somehow expected better of M&S!

    If that's true, i think it's absolutely terrible! How sneaky!

  • Honestly they weren't being sneaky (at least in my store). I got a 907g one for £4.99.
    Hope it tastes good.
  • Oops - yes indeed I went into M&S today and they had 3 sizes of that pud, including a 907g one now back at £9.99 so it would appear that I was wrong and M&S are not up to the sneaky (but legal) tactics of certain other supermarkets. So apologies to M&S and good on them, anyone who got a half price pud did indeed get a genuine bargain. :o:o

    Still not as good as making your own though. :p
