    Just received mine and am a bit disappointed. Yes it was a bargain, but not very presentable.
    I think I'll take it in to my M&S and ask if they'll gift wrap it like they do with the other hampers they make up in store. They may charge me £3.50, but so what :D

    bit dissapointed the BBD is 15/12/2010 as i doubt my gran will be able to eat alll of the chocolates before then .

    wouldnt pay 50 pounds for it but at 23.50 its a bargain

    Given these were sold in the Christmas section I would ring CS re the BBD, Bit out of order that IMO, Mine arrived with BBD of 27/01/2010. I agree it was overpriced originally however I am pleased with what I paid for it.

    What a scam by M&S with the short BB date, surely they should have stated in the ad, that it was it was short dated. Still waiting for mine grrrr. Future hamper bargainers beware !!!

    they are bleached wotsits ! they are made from wheat and are biodegradable, you can eat them!
    any way recieved my 2 today, very pleased, with them .would have been very disappointed it id paid the full price though.tray is very nice , and will be trying the port later!
    agree with the packaging, not verywell presented if you supposed to send these direct to the reciever.wrapped in some clear cellophane or slip case would have looked nicer.
  • Hi, I just want to say please check you hamper as one of my saucers was broken and I rang M & S and as they do not send individual items off they sent me another hamper one free of charge.

    So check your hamper as it would be a disapointment if anything was broken when unwrapped on Christmas Day.
