    Does anyone know yet when M&S will be having their 70% off? I want to take the bus to a bigger store which is half an hour away but don't want to go before the last part of the sale lol! :)

    Don't think they all do the manager's reductions on the same day. My local store is often the day after the larger stores. Always find it is a bit of luck getting there on the right day before the ebayers.

    Is the further reduction or 70% off is the same as Managers reductions?

    No further reductions yet online. Bit slower than usual this time.

    I made two clothing orders on 31/12 but couldn't get delivery to store as some items were not able to be delivered there. Also unable to get free nominated day delivery to home address so had to opt for normal delivery at £3.50 each.
    I emailed m&s on online form today to enquire about having delivery charges refunded as the items ordered are not on the website list for non delivery to store ( these only include food, flowers, wine, made to measure and gift cards) Result of £7 charges being refunded within two days.

    You were very lucky. Made two orders early Xmas eve - over 20 items, all for the earliest nominated delivery ( as they wouldn't allow me in store pick up). Unsurprisingly, all items are now out of stock and both orders cancelled. :( why do I bother?? You would have learnt my lesson by now.

    Therefore for anyone waiting to buy online in the final reductions, if you see it in store, buy and take back if necessary. You can't guarantee getting ANYTHING online.
