Thier offer when you click on this set -

Here's how (restrictions apply).

So theres the 75% off, plus the codes thats aceepted and being used for 10% off!
Can they cancel this if its thier offer??

I think they have a right to end any promotional offer at any time! They can just take it off their website!

£109 worth of stuff came out at £17.14. Have had confirmation email. Hope I don't get the cancellation one! Great find by OP.

Just had an email through from M&S that say's it's a glitch and won't be honoured. Gutted.

Also the discount codes are one use only so will miss out on those now too. By all means give it a go but probably best to just order a couple of things instead of going ott - it'll probably be more likely to slip under the radar that way...

Can you copy and paste a bit of the email here so we can see what they have got to say.

TIA

No cancellation here either. I often order things from M&S, maybe they will be a bit suspicious of all the new customers buying the same thing though? No big deal if they cancel on me. Merry Christmas anyway to M&S

Those that have had a cancellation email - what time did you order?

*max*

Maybe the glitch is that it takes 50% off the full price AFTER the 25% discount?
Ie: £10 with 25% discount = £7.50
then they deduct £5 from the £7.50 (50% of £10)?

Edit: forgive me, I'm confusing myself here! lol

What I meant is, they intended only for ONE discount to be applied, one or the other, but both ended up being applied?
