What do you think the chances are any schoolwear will be in it? I usually buy in the 3 for 2 but they don't seem to be doing it this year and I was going to buy them this weekend as our schools go back on the 17th August but might hang off in hope.

3 for 2 was replaced with 20% off this year and is only schoolwear offer... as im aware only schoolwear sale will be remaining summer dresses and some socks, tights etc

This is a bit odd time wise as I just got out a present to wrap for my mum and it was £5 down from £19.50 in the 2nd/3rd/50th sale earlier on in the year and the receipt in the bag says **No refund of exchange give** typed under the 2 things I bought. Also I remember the SA telling me. I can kinda understand when they are selling things so cheap they don't want to have to ship them off to their clearance branches months later. I got a swimming costume for £2 too. Unfortunately an annoying costly problem in your case. Guess the moral is try them on in store or risk it.

What annoys me is that I was not informed at the time of purchase. If I knew in the first place I couldn't return them, I wouldn't have bought them!

Does anyone know if any homeware will be included? I'm in the process of buying my first house, and hardly have a thing so if I could get a few bargains, that would be nice I'm particularly eyeing up the red poppy dinner service!

Take a look at the Poppy range in Dunelm Mill, they have loads of poppy stuff.

It's true. I work for M&S, and have been asked to stay late on Monday night to prepare for it.

I work in the lingerie department and I know that minimiser bras will be in the sale, as will t shirt bras, and lots of single knickers.

I think kids wear will be reduced, and saw some mens shoes being reduced, but not sure what womens wear will go in the sale.

I kept searching for this thread to see if there was any more new. Have booked an hour off on Tues morning on the strength of this since my vouchers just arrived. Fingers crossed it's good

please keep updating if anyone hears anything more, I'm not in the market for underwear at the min

All (or at least most of) the mens shorts should be getting reduced as well, hth

Do you mind me asking if you know if any maternity bras will be in the sale? I was going to be buying some but if they are going to be in the sale I will wait and hopefully get some money off! Thank you in advance.
