  • Hi babybimbles, nice to see you again!

    I'm not sure if you can order sale stuff instore but you could always order it online, return it to store and re-buy it with your vouchers?

    Just thought I'd mention that the Limited Collection set of 3 T.shirts are really nice, excellent quality.

    Nursing Bra's *£1* today in M&S Wakefield and I didn't even think of eBay. They were originally £19.

  • Oreded yesterday saving the £10 from the link but code for free postage wouldn`t work as well. Still Ds school trousers cost £8, £10 back with the other stuff I ordered, £3.50 for postage so got them for 1.50p!

    Nice to be remembered ;)

    As far as I know M&S don't let you buy things back once you've returned them. I've tried it before and they wouldn't budge. I think it's to do with returning something you bought full price and then trying to buy it back at sale price if it has gone down!!
  • they have told me before that if you return an item which is a sale item then it does not go back into shop stock until the next morning, so if you want it again at a lower price then you have to be in the store early
    however i bought my OH some shoes instore for about £12 (reduced from £26), then i found them online for £4, i bought some more for him and wanted to return the 1st pair to the shop, they still had them in the sale in store, so i returned the pair and noticed that they now came up at £1.50, so i got my £12 refund and told my mum who was with me, she picked up a pair which were too small and went to the same till to "ask" for a different size, she was told all stock was out and then she "noticed " the same pair behind the till and asked what size they were, the lady then happily sold them to my mum for £1.50
    so if you are returning something its worth 2 of you going in and seeing if they will sell it to you this way.
    ADOPT DONT SHOP......🐕🐕🐕🐕
