    Not really, most stores end up with 75% off at the end of the sale. Debenhams, BHS, and H&M to name a few.

    I'd definitely buy some of this gear - if only I could fit into size 14 or 18 shirts!!
    This isn't desperation - just M&S clearing the last of the unwanted stock so they can move on. All companies do this just to tidy up at the end of the sale.
    You don't get medals for sitting in the trenches.

    In Newcastle loads of Limited Collection ladieswear is reduced to £5. Yesterday I got a pair of trousers, jeans, skirt and two tops for £25, which would have originally cost almost £200.

    Down almost 6%, but a lot of others are as well, including Next.

    Yes but they still are predicted to be making £600 million :o I wouldn't be complaining if that was in my bank account, of course I'm not a ginormous high street retailer. ;D

    Its just been on the news that they overstocked at Xmas so now they are going to have to dump loads of stock and it will cost them 40 million to do this, guess this is where the 75% discount comes in

    When I saw the thread title I thought it was talking about the share price!
