    Also free delivery when you spend £25

    My son starts school in September - I'm not sure how many items I should be buying - polo shirts/ jumpers/ trousers?

    Help? Thanks!

    You will need to change him every day, you know boys... If you got time to do washing during the week that fine, don't buy too many.
    For me, for my daugther and my son, i always buy 5 of each as i am a busy mum, i mean i've got one complete uniform for each day of the school. You always find good deals on uniforms.:)

    Don't forget that martin had a 10% off code for M&S in his email this week It is only valid today but if you order online to collect in store there is no P&P I assume it works with school uniform so more savings will do it tonight when I get home and check what size he currently has as I never remember.

    Yep boys get through more uniform than girls he comes home filthy having played football at lunch and break times and goes through the knees in a couple of weeks - at least it is warm enough to wear shorts at the moment - just means scraped knees!!
    Thanks to MSE savings we got to go to Disneyworld Florida.

    I buy shirts in packs of 3, so always have 6, always M&S non iron ;)

    I know there are 5 days in the school week, but that extra one always seems to come in handy when they've gone and lost something, or hidden it.
  • Also when they just start school they spill their lunch down themselves whether its yoghurt, juice or their hot meal!

    I always have enough tops for a clean one daily and normally buy 3-4 bottoms (skirts, pinafores, trousers) as I always do a washing midweek.

    Am wondering if this code could be used together with the clubcard double up thingy?

    Not sure if already posted on here (it is in another section) Sainsburys 25% off starts on Tuesday (thanks thatguy1).

    Their polo tops wash up very well, and are very good quality too.
