    I have cancelled all oos items from my order leaving only 1 gift and other full price things, so we will see. I had rung earlier and asked them to cancel whole order but they didn't! Who knows how the M&S machine works....

    How do you know which ones are oos

    Someone metioned before these two things were out of stock, perhaps you cant remove them so that your order can be cancelled due to out of stock items?

    Ordered 8.30 am yesterday, still no change to dispatch, not even updated to dispatch shortly.

    I hold out little hope!

    Daisymac that change button is to change the wrapping option for gifts, if you want to cancel items the button is near top of page.

    I must be thick, but when I go online it doesnt say 50% off the goods in the first place?

    When you click on "checkout" it will show you the total, minus any discounts, which includes the 50% off. Remember that only the items marked up as 50% have a reduction, which are 4 of them out of 5 still listed on the Alcoholic gifts! :beer:

    I may be wrong, but in my past shopping with m&s, I have always found that when the option to change the order dissapears then the order is pretty much secured and you should have stock allocated to it. But when you still have the ability to change or cancel an item it seems to mean that stock hasnt been allocated to it and there is more chance that the order maybe cancelled.

    I have found this to be true ordering things from m&s many times in the sale. tbh most of the sale stuff i have bought that just sits for a few days with the option to change or cancel, eventually just gets cancelled by m&s.

    I may be completely wrong though :confused:
    now has her .com delivery but doesnt know where to put it :o
