    cancelled.
    would have been nice and made a good few pressies, but my waist line is grateful as i now won't be eating a whole christmas pud to myself :p

    so they were 50% off price shown anyway? then actually priced half price for the sale? that's not a sale!
    Living cheap in central London :rotfl:
  • Just got a cancellation email, saying there was an error in the pricing.
    1st Purse £114.19 Monthly GB
    2nd Purse ££100
    :rotfl::j:wave::j:rotfl:
    Fridge Freezer £300 3rd Purse /£290.94
  • I really did not think this was a glitch on this occasion, especially as they had previously been reduced to half price.

    Now ordered one from John Lewis instead!!
  • I have visions now of a national newspaper heading 'New M&S CEO Christmas Scrooge' Making the headlines after Christmas!!

    i would be surprised if they cancelled the celebrate order, but let 2 of the food lovers thru, as being as they are ywice as expensive, so they lose more, i was hoping that they would cancel the expensive ones and let the cheaper ones slip thru once they started cancelling
    Take every day as it comes!!

    I've been Money Tipped!
    I can't believe they cancelled these after all the glitches which have been honoured in the past.
    New M&S policy perhaps.
