The return of the Marks and Spencer Penny Bazaar

Does anyone know if there is a list of participating stores?

My invite is for Nottingham Store 1pm to 9pm. But I work in Leicester so by the time I get there all the 1 penny stuff is bound to have sold out.

My invite is from 7-9pm on the 11th Nov in Wrexham. I have an &More card and got the invite with my reward vouchers.

I also received a 12.5% off anything you buy voucher when you spend over £35 on the night.

I didn't go to the last one as we were away on holiday.
Can anyone tell me what was it like ??

I'm not a cardholder and wouldn't want to queue up with the great unwashed (I'm actually off to a Christmas show that day anyway) but I never knew that last years was for donations to charity. There was nothing about that in any of the advertising I saw. That is a nice idea but it shouldn't be connected to the penny bazaar deal. If they are offering things for 1p then they should charge 1p and not guilt you into donating for charity at the same time.

I have no problem donating to charity but that is not what I would have espected if I'd queued for ages last year. That is misrepresentation and would certainly turn me against M&S.
Maybe just give a % of their money on Rememberance Sunday or have buckets out everywhere for them instead.

Saying that I like the idea of a day for the cardholders, much fairer.

Are partners allowed to attend as well, or is it strictly the person with the invite?

Just back, threw my invite away but took the email along with me that I also had. They take the invites off of you so you do need to have one.

Got a tea towel, 1 pair ladies socks, 1 pair mens socks in a bag,money box and a small box of kids chocolates. you had to have 1 food item. only had to wait for a few minutes,


Could have had a pair of pants, kids puzzle,2 mini rolls, mug.trolly coin, or a note pad I think that was it.

A member of staff holds your bag, and you hand them your 5 items.
