changed their knicker styles? The style I have bought for years no longer exists. Have bought underwear from M&S forever, but have had to shop elsewhere.
Very disappointed!

I felt the same way when they stopped selling the cheese and apple sandwich for some inexplicable reason.

I got very angry with them when they made it harder for me to get my fix of belgian chocolate covered toffee popcorn. I know they do it on purpose, bastards.

MidnightOnceMore · 02/11/2023 22:03

Which one have they stopped? I hate it when shops do this!

I love how the thread moved to food in the very first reply!

Gap stopped their love/breathe high rise and only sell them/shop within the states. Thank god for my USA based sister. My 20 year old nephew came to visit and she sent him here with a bag of essentially granny pants for me BlushGrin

I got really furious when I bought a packet of their basic knickers a while ago and they had stupid little infantile bows on the front. I’m fucking 39, I don’t need piddly bows on my sodding pants. WHY ARE THEY THERE?? 🤬

CanIPetThatDawg · 02/11/2023 22:10

I'm fumin' they seem to have got rid of their gorgeous Hot Chocolate Fudge Pudding Angry

They have got rid of the midi briefs (which were halfway between high rise granny pants and bikini). They seem to have replaced them with shorts style briefs which are far too flappy around the leg!

So you can tell which side is the front.. although mine are so huge there's no missing the arse side.

sunshinesupermum · 02/11/2023 22:19

I wondered why I couldn't find the midi briefs last time I looked for them 🤢 I hate the shirts do the only option is full brief 🤮

sunshinesupermum · 02/11/2023 22:19

Shorts not Shirts!

Oh noooooooo!!!!

I love m&s midi brief!!!!

Where can we shop now?

greengreengrass25 · 02/11/2023 22:20

I liked the midis as well

Also their sizing is so erratic

Danikm151 · 02/11/2023 22:22

I was gutted that they’d stopped doing the midi briefs.
i went to treat myself a few months ago and couldn’t find any!

Mariposista · 02/11/2023 22:22

And when they stopped offering their birthday afternoon tea to their premium club credit card holders - it was one of the highlights of my late gran’s year!
A couple of years I took her anyway and just paid while she found a table - told her they’d reinstated it with my fingers crossed behind my back and said a few extra prayers that night for the fib! Made her happy though :)

I’m very fed up with them for doing this as well. I don’t want bikini and granny pants are too big. I don’t like the shorts either.

Sebsaloysius · 02/11/2023 22:25

Another one gutted when I made the midi discovery!

Should we start a petition and get the Daily Mail involved?

Canyoudomegreaterharm · 02/11/2023 22:26

Next do midis I had to buy those instead but they aren’t as good as the M&S ones I am still on the lookout for a good replacement

I like the bows 😬

youveturnedupwelldone · 02/11/2023 22:27

The midi brief is now called the high rise short! I've also been buying midi for years, was gutted they discontinued, tried the high rise short, thought it was quite similar...

They now have signs up saying same style just renamed!

Canyoudomegreaterharm · 02/11/2023 22:28

I am off to order those!

Claysta · 02/11/2023 22:32

I’ve still not moved on from when they stopped selling their chicken tikka sandwich… why? It was a classic ..

They are a throwback from before elective was invented.
