M&S sale starts this Thursday

has anyone noticed how many Wales & Ireland hooded jerseys & tops are on the system, literally hundreds, all down from £16 to £7 & £5 ...

I think they had to recount them, because several hundred in all sizes inexplicably went OOS at the same time, the slowly came back onto the product pages this afternoon!

I'm gonna wait (with them in my basket) for the further reductions, hopefully I can bag some for nephews for £2-£3 each!

80% off!

They also have the Funnel Neck sports jackets (Wales, Scotland, Ireland) down from £20 to£7, and they won't all go before the further reductions either! So I'd expect to bag a few of these for maybe £4 each

I placed my order on Wednesday night as soon as the prices changed, and I just opted for the standard delivery. I've just received an email saying all 6 items I ordered have been dispatched - hope this gives some hope to others who ordered early!

I placed several small orders on Wednesday night to collect instore and have had one item cancelled, the rest have been despatched.

Also, it's possible that several orders went through then were cancelled thus allowing the OOS items to go back into stock!

Thanks. It's just odd because the stock was showing as 'more than 10 available' - and this was the case until late last night. Then it went down slowly over today from 9 to 6 (I've been watching it as I've had my eye on a second pair!). So at no point has it ever stated that they were low on stock, not in the slightest! The other curtains of different lengths sold out at varying speeds, but these are very very long and didn't seem to be in demand!

The girl on the phone was very confused, but she did say that last night they had a major website malfunction and no-one could order anything. I can vouch for that - I was trying to order a small waffle throw and now they've all gone!

Well I'm worried now. I placed a huge order on Wed night as soon as the sale items became available and nothing has moved in my account. When I click to 'change' the order, some items can no longer be 'changed', but strangely some items that PREVIOUSLY could not be 'changed' now have the little grey box beside them allowing me to 'change' them again (I haven't actually tried to change them, nor do I want to)! I have also ordered things to be delivered to my local store but NOTHING is showing as despached. I will be furious if I don't get ANYTHING in my orders like last time! I wasted several hours choosing things to buy from their website and have ordered over £200 of products (not in one order so unfortunately I didn't qualify for the free allocated delivery day). I've had no emails either.

Not happy at all with M&S at the moment.

I had the exact same problem! Very frustrating. In the end I ordered using standard delivery and won't expect it to arrive, but if it does that'll be a bonus.
In my account I can now see which bit was the problem, as most of the order is due for delivery 3 August and only 1 item actually says 12th Sept, so not as bad as it seemed.

I tried deleting items and picking delivery dates to find which item was the tricky one but non would work and by the end of that the pair of matchng knickers i was frantically trying to buy had sold out
I can't risk having the stuff arrive so late as I'm moving next month, so I'm going to have a rummage through a few Birmingham stores tomorrow and hope I get lucky.

I placed my order on Wednesday night as soon as the prices changed, and opted for Store Delivery...

All dispatched, so it's all good!

Mind you, I ordered stuff that had more than 20 available....such as Living The Dream hoodies, Ireland hoodies, and a couple of Autograph dresses for a friends daughter....

Received both my online Sale orders today (sent to store) and everything was in there. Yay. Please does anyone have any idea when further reductions will take place? I was wondering if it might be Tuesday this week instore? Many thanks

Went to the Birmingham store and it was like a jumble sale already, everything stuffed on to racks/the floor and most of the bras were only in really obscure huge sizes that I could have used for a hat! It took an hour of rummaging and SAs bringing out stuff from changing rooms, but I managed to get everything I'd liked from the underwear sale in my size(which seemed to vary much more than usual, as much as two cup sizes difference between styles so I really hope m&s haven't lost their touch with perfect fittng bras!).
