M&S christmas range here.

no food that I can see tho and only found it by googling (other search engines are available) "M&S christmas 2012" so looks as if it's hidden link wise from the homepage until their sale has finished.

another search and I think the christmas food will be here but it's not connecting to it yet.

thanks hun! :beer: isnt it mad that some stores have the ordering brochure but it's not available yet! I think some places have underestimated the interest in Christmas!

I so agree about the B00ts prices, I looked at the Champneys pink set, I'm sure they were cheaper last year? apart from the Beauticology which is fantastic and also great value, am not im pressed with the pricing this year

Last year we held £500 crackers . Note the HELD:rotfl:

OMG!!! :eek::rotfl: I'd have been scared to hold one in case I dropped it and broke whatever crown jewel was inside! :rotfl:

on our hols we were shown a store where you have to pay $1500 ... just gain entrance! :eek: ... I dont recall if you got it back on exit or off purchase, was in shock! :rotfl:

Am loving the Vodka - going to Asda later - on my own :j so will check out the Christmas ailse and buy some black jacks.

How far is F&M from Harrods. I'm going to London in December to see Santa with the children so may need to pop into F&M - just to say I've been there

Hi all

I regularly dip in and out of this thread and am always amazed at the cleverness and creativity of you all. This year I would love to make some flavoured vodka's for my DD's (21 and 19 and at uni so am sure it will go down well) and in the past I have made Skittle vodka and toffee vodka (with Werthers) but wondered if there was anywhere on here that listed all of the flavours people have made without me going through all 240 plus pages - very lazy of me I know and will do it if needs be but didn't want to get to page 227 and find one !

Morning all,
Regretting those extra hours now( body hurts everywhere ) but suppose will be nice once pay day is here and we have a little bit extra. So a day of taking it easy today.

Have collected all photographs from OH side to get copied for his mum and nan's photo frame present. So just need to sort out the final layout then get copies made (tomorrow) then I can get the photographs back to their owners (especially his mums who does not yet know they are missing)

My sisters birthday tomorrow so I will be able to pop into Poundland for a look around as there is one where she lives and none where we live. Only thing I am to buy from there though(stupid money lock down) is candy canes and mini marshmallows if I see them, for snowman soup.

Huge bloody great big hugs to everyone who needs them (catching up after a couple of days) much love :grouphug: :grouphug:

It's 2 tube stops. Take the Picadilly line from Knightsbridge( right outside Harrods) to Green Park.
On getting off at Green Park turn left. Walk past The Ritz and it is on your right.

Just called M&S and was told it looks like my store let the brochure go early. Said the Turkeys were probably not quite ready yet lol. Said I would try again in a few days. Less than a minute later I get a call back from him - he had gone off to check and the Christmas Ordering Service goes live on Thursday - very impressed he called me back - plus points for M&S.
