    No I don't know sorry - but I would guess roughly to half the current sale prices ie £5 to £3, £9 to £5 etc - that seems to be how they generally go - and some items don't go down at all!!!!

    some people are saying that managers reductions are tomorrow and some say not until next week. Is there anyone who works at m&s on this forum that knows for definate when managers reductions are?
    Thanks

    Do the further reduction automatically update on the tills or do you have to wait till the local store has re-priced? I saw something today I quite fancy but don't want to go in at opening time tomorrow and find I'm too early for the further reductions.

    exactly the question i wanted to know! :j
    Whether we win or lose,
    that we played at all was a winning decision. :D
    2011 wins £12,292
    2012 wins ...
    Thank you to all who post on here!!!! :A

    No ones buying it because its all very old and much of it tat! Summer stock when the rest of the worlds sales offer winter stock (ie stuff we need now rather then 6 months away).

    M&S need to have a proper sale, think the results of the current sale just goes to show you can't pull the wool over the eyes of the British consumer!

    Maybe you've just been in unlucky in your store? In ours the summer stock had pretty much all gone in the last sale, loads of knitted items, long skirts, trousers, coats and then the obligatory party wear dresses etc, some of the stock reduced only came into stores in December. The spring stock is coming in now so they will want rid of alot of the winter stuff to make more room for the new. Final reductions are tomorrow but beware and make sure you try on as I'm pretty sure it's non returnable from tomorrow, up to now you could still get a refund on sale items. Not sure how much is left, suppose it depends on the store but don't forget people are still returning unwanted Christmas presents, customer services are still busy with this and much of this will now be sale and back on the shop floor so you could strike lucky with it.

    Should update automatically as far as I'm aware. The further reductions on Tuesday were re-stickered Monday night and the tills had the new prices on them for everything as soon as we opened Tuesday as some items were coming up cheaper on the tills than on the stickers as inevitably some items will be missed. Akways nice to be able to tell customers that the item is cheaper than they thought it was :D
