£35.00 with £35.00 & over purchase of women's wear.

Each item averages at £1.40.

M&S claim the contents are valued at £250.00 which makes each item worth £10.00.

Sorry M&S, I don't believe you! Nail polishes (rubbish colours), nail file, v v v small serum etc.

I looked on the website and customers are giving it 5* Confused

Anyone else succumbed ?
What's your thoughts?
Which advent calendar would you splurge on?

The Liberty one looked great (much more pricey, but genuine valued items). Sold out though.

I have been impressed. Definitely worth it.

It feels churlish saying I'm disappointed with the M&S beauty advent ... but I am . Serves me right ! Last year's was such a novelty , probably because I never really buy beauty products , having had a few financially lean years, so it was all quite exciting to be discovering products which many others probably knew all about . It was a real treat having a little surprise to open every day , it did make me feel quite child- like again .
However this year , I must admit , the products seem pointless and certainly not worth the £250 they claim .... with one exception the Nuxe dry oil is lovely and I'm still waiting for the Shay and Blue perfume which I tried in store and is lovely .
