Went online today and you can pre-book your collection slot. Nothing really different to last year, was hoping for a new yummy dessert but at least they had Christmas Colin!

We had M&S shin of beef, turkey crown and ham on boxing day last year with some of their deserts. I was cooking for 12. The food was delicious and easy to do. Due to covod I don't think we will be entertaining the same this year and won't be able to afford m&s either.

Never ordered from M&S before but am contemplating getting a few bits, particularly desserts. Is there anything anyone would particularly recommend? Is it actually any better than say top end Asda/Sainsbury’s etc? Thanks

Christmas Colin looks amazing but dd is coeliac and dh hates chocolate and I really don't think I ought to eat a whole Colin. 😁

Can I ask having never used it before do you have the chance to edit your order after placing to add extras like you can do for a Tesco's grocery shop or once placed is that it ?

I ordered the shin of beef last year, and when I went to collect my order they didn't have any left! They said they'd only received half the amount of them they ordered. Will try again this year.

I love the mushrooms in pastry thing. I bought for a veggy one year and have bought again since as it's so lovely.

My local store is sold out of collection slots already. Think there must be loads of people not wanting to go shopping because of Covid. Can you book a slot and edit your order later like you do with Asda? Or is it one order and done?

That's really early; it's normally in early October. Obviously trying to get ahead of the crowds!

I'm not sure it is significantly better than many supermarket top range things to be honest but I do think the quality is more consistent and reliable - whereas you supermarket can be more hit or miss between different products.

I do a supermarket British frozen turkey, but m&s for stuffing and cakes/desserts. I like m&S quiche. Bread good too.

@CrunchyNutNC

Thank you. I went for a turkey, sides and several desserts.

Is there a way to add to your order online or is it only via the customer care telephone?

10am Xmas eve booked
We go to my mums every year and I always make all the "sides" from scratch - cauliflower cheese, red cabbage, stuffing etc.
This year I will be 6 months pregnant so it's all going to be M&S!
Added a Colin and a cranberry topped pork pie for good measure Wink
