[shootfromthehip]

Am sending DH- haven't done it before- what would you recommend?

[BoysAreLikeZombies]

Om nom nom

[jenk1]

ive only had the cheese pie,but ive had veg from them and they are nice.

[AuntieMaggie]

Chicken with Davidstow? Cheddar Gratin was lovely... mmmm... think i'm gonna have to stock up the freezer...

[mamaspanx]

have just bought the chicken roasted veg and sticky toffee pudding, pudding is in the oven now cause i'm pregnant and can eat what i want when i want and can't wait!

[hifi]

i bought
a chicken
roast spuds
cheese box
red wine

[CandleQueen]

highly recommend the Lochmuir? Scottish Lightly Smoked Salmon Joint
I'd normally be rushing to M&S by this point, but am away for half term - BUM!

[mamaspanx]

no chicken not free range...marks have pretty high standards though eh?

[mamaspanx]

the pudding is more spongey than a cartmel sticky toffee pudding but still very good, i like it when the toffee sauce has gone a bit chewy!

[LazyLinePainterJane]

don't see why they would have higher standards, but would see why people would think that and they would get away with implying it. Their whole chickens still have hock marks.

[tassisssss]

excellent, I love this deal!

the chocolate puddings are amazing

we've had a chicken breast thing, a salmon thing and a random pasta a sausagemeat thing (all there was left!) and all were gorgeous

might have to nip into town...

[mamaspanx]

a smallish chicken that cost £8 instead of £2
should have had a better life..i had thought. thats why i don't buy ones at £2

what others say about m&s

[zippitippitoes]

ive dne this deal a couple of times but really at ten quid you are getting corrected value raqther than a bargain

m and s just grossly overcharge for everything in the first place so this just brings the prices to comparable with shopping elsewhere

[zippitippitoes]

i never buy any m and s food normally as their pricing is outrageous

[AuntieMaggie]

the sticky toffee pudding is gorgeous!

i only buy the odd thing in m&s when i feel like a treat.

[janeite]

The sticky toffee pudding really is lovely.

I've just bought it on the way home and got dp the chicken pie, as he so rarely gets to eat meat. It leaked in my bag and now I (veggie for over 20 years) stink of gravy - grrrr.

I will have roasted asparagus for my dinner, with parmesan shavings and balsamic vinegar, with new potatoes and salad. Dp shall have leaky chicken pie, minus gravy unless he can be bothered to make some more to replace the stuff I am wearing.

[hifi]

actually the price of food in m and s is getting more comparable with other supermarkets.

[lotuseener]

janeite, my damn chicken pie leaked all over too!!! My canvas bag is soaked with chicken pie gravy, blugh!!!

[janeite]

I had to throw my bag away; it's a canvas one but a sort of shiny coating that I think would have melted in the wash - so M&S are now responsible for me being less eco-aware than I would like. Shall we write letters?!

[CaptainNancy]

zippi love the phrase 'corrected value'!!!!

yummmmm- M&S chicken pie is so delish. Gah- am starving now

[PortofinoPumpkin]

Oooh M&S! I'm moving back home immediately!

[sameagain]

Think I might be clutching at straws,but can you do M&S food shopping on line? Thinking I could stock the freezer!!!

[janeite]

Sadly, no - sorry.
