School Uniform from M & S

[TwoToTango]

They are doing 3 for 2 at the moment. I am thinking of getting some online. Has anyone brought any from them - I would expect M&S to be good quality also does anyone know if their sizes are generous or not. I can't decide whether to go for age 5 or 6 (ds now is age 6 from Adams). Advice anyone please.

HUGE sizes imo

i haev a s kinny boya nd get them from next

[nutcracker]

Are the really cheap skirts (£3 i think) available in store or just online does anyone know ??

[TwoToTango]

Not sure but i've seen the boys trousers for same price in the store as online - you could email their customer services, I have done in the past and they are very good.

[nutcracker]

Oooh good idea, i'll do that.

I ordered a whole lot of clothes in this promotion. On their homepage was an offer which also gave you free postage when you spent over £30.
It's a very good offer as they don't just give you the cheapest item free but once you buy over three items every item automatically gets one third off.
Bought polo shirts for ds and dd, trousers for dd, dress for dd and underwear (not in offer).

discounts

The one thing that annoys me about M&S is that they accept my card instore but not online

[poisson]

cos they can see you in store!!

I've got skinny boys too poisson, so I'm gald you said that about huge sizes.

PITA finding nice school trousers for them when they're beanpoles.

[poisson]

next flat fronted ones

[nutcracker]

But other sites accept it online, Sainsburys, Argos, B&Q etc.

If the 3 for 2 offer is not instore too I will not be a happy bunny.

Are the polo shirts any good by the way ? Usually have Adams ones but they weren't so good this year.

[poisson]

yes a dn all cottony
so need irtonign but lok liverly

[cupcakes]

yes, and fairly long so suit ds's long torso.

[LadyTophamHatt]

Ohhh they are nice aren't they.....

[nutcracker]

Have emailed to ask if the offers are on instore too and why they don't accept Electron.

[TwoToTango]

Next ones look nice - are they the same price in the store?

[poisson]

y7es ds1s l;egs are the width of my upper arm i think so not tooo mcuh material

wear RERALLY well

[TwoToTango]

Thanks - will hold off on M&S until i've seen the ones in Next. I was suprised at the prices would have expected Next to be more expensive.

[LadyTophamHatt]

Me too, TTT

[nutcracker]

Ooooh did you lot know Adams sell their schoolwear online now ??

Also oddly enough they accept my card online even though they don't instore. Bloody weird, wish they'd make their minds up.

[poisson]

[LadyTophamHatt]

[poisson]

I looked on the Adams site. They had some nice 100% cotton jumpers in store which weren't on there so not sure if they have the whole range on line. If you order from them on line can you send returns back free do you know?
