Sheffield fargate m&s urgent help needed

212 replies

Babynamehelp8 · 27/12/2025 14:16

does anyone know anyone who works there please? Someone stole an item out my hands today in a different store and it’s the only store with stock of the item which I’ve hunted everywhere for but I can’t get through to store only a central call centre; anyone know how I can before I drive all that way for potentially wasted journey please?

Ok. Back to the bag. I've already said I'm going to Fargate tomorrow afternoon, and I'm very happy to look for the bag for you, but please let me know what I'm looking for!

I think the OP was referring to your words being unkind. Which they were. Calling some a desperado is insulting - but you know that, because you intended to be insulting.

Thank you, I was indeed. I don’t expect anyone to search but it’s very kind that people offered

I don’t really waste ‘kindness’ on a search for an M&S tote bag. Have fun!

lol I don’t think slinging insults whatever the reason is the sign of a kind person. Kindness is never wasted.

I didn’t ask people to search for the bag, I asked if anyone who worked there or was in there knew how I could contact the store as their number just connects to a call centre who can’t help. and I certainly didn’t ask you to read the thread or search 😊

If it’s anywhere near Watford or east London/essex I can grab it for you

Hi. I googled the direct number for Sheffield Fargate M&S and got: 0114 275 4913. The code at least is correct. Good luck.

Why didn’t you speak to someone at the time and phone instead?

No worries and you’re welcome. I shall finish my shopping trip with some dim sum now instead. (And I got a 50% off Rosie HW lounge set that I wouldn’t have seen if I didn’t pop in there - so thank you actually!) Hope you get hold of it! I wonder how many naysayers on here upturn heaven and earth to get something their kid has asked for for Christmas?! It’s no different! If I’m in the area then why wouldn’t I want to do a favour if I was able? Will keep my fingers crossed for you.

Exactly - a lovely attitude to have and I’d do the same! Glad you got something lovely, enjoy

Someone took a ready cooked chicken out of my trolley once in M&S when my back was turned - there was a massive queue for them, I was raging 😡

Nooo! How rude are people?!

OP posts:
Hallamlass · 27/12/2025 19:45

So let me know what I'm looking for tomorrow afternoon.

Ooh no I didn’t see that one lol - let’s hope I don’t now

Dramatic much. I imagined you all being held hostage in M&S and needed the police ringing 🙈🙈🙈

Haha that made me chuckle

Can you post a link to the bag?

I’m sure more people will be able to help or look out for it, if we actually know what we’re looking for….

The stock checker on the jumper I wanted said there was 1 in store this morning when I checked. Got there just after 11. Found it and bought it. The stock checker now says out of stock. It seems to work.

lll be passing tomorrow- but would want to know what it is. Sending a pair of gloves is
a bit easier than a specially glazed ham etc

It's a handbag.

What about Northern Ireland stores? I’m heading out tomorrow and am happy for any excuse for a browse around M&S Grin
