No M&S party food?! What’s happening?

[Partypooper00]

Went to put in an order for M&S kids’ party sandwiches and other things. But they’re not doing them anymore! Or any party food, except Christmas food, delivering in December.

What’s going on?! Is this a shortages thing? Or is it a Covid thing (they’re assuming no one is gathering)?

Am I going to have to make all the sandwiches and other snacks myself?! Ahh!

Unless it's an absolutely enormous party where you have a million sandwiches to make, you could always make your own puzzle sandwiches

I used to get platters for work from M&S and when they stopped I started using a local sandwich shop. They are much nicer, not much dearer and it's a great feeling to be supporting a young single mum's business. Give a local place a go :)

Oh nice thank you!

It’s just a whole class party. Thirty 6-year-olds and their parents. Was hoping to be lazy

But may well do this if Morrison’s doesn’t pan out!

That’s a good idea too! Thank you!

The Costco kids sandwich platters are great. The wraps platters are nice too. Plus the cakes and trays of pastries etc are great for kids parties

No, I had the same problem. The M and S site says all the 'entertain' range is being done by ocado but there are no sandwiches (either adult or kids) or fruit tartlets at Ocado. Apparently they have no plans to do them after Christmas either.

I bought some puzzle cutters off eBay and they are tiny, way to fiddly and just ended up doing my own triangles.
