M&S customers are a nuisance

[DamnAlabama]

I went into M&S Food today and every customer I came across was absolutely oblivious to anyone else in that store. It's like Percy Pigs over morals.

Were you having this fantastic time in the manager’s office?

That place is a mystery. Somehow that one customer walking the isles will randomly stop right in front of you and stare in to the distance like they’re waiting for the grocery gods to send them a sign.

Unfortunately yes, have had to slum it in the Selfridges food hall. I stand by it though, never back down, never surrender!!

I do not see the appeal of that place at all. It's basically over priced ready meals. Gross

Dead to me since they discontinued the Christmas Boule!!!!

Percy Pigs are about the only thing that’s affordable in M&S.

Slowness is perhaps down to the fact that the only people who can afford to shop there these days are the wealthy pensioners?

Don’t have to much of an issue in my 2 local M&S apart from at Christmas, when everyone seems to lose thier heads, which I know most shoppers do at Christmas but it seems to be ten fold in M&S. the amount of shopping rage I get in there at Xmas is unreal.
also the sparks card is basically pointless, I think in the 2 years I’ve had it, it’s given me exactly 3 vouchers food wise that I’ve actually used. The rest is for stuff I’ve never bought in my life.

You don't eat chips? Now that's a percy pig pie

I got aisle blocked last week by two girls in their late teens / early twenties doing a dance in the aisle. It wasn't for Tik Tok or the like, they were just enjoying themselves. M&S is that delicious it will do that to you imo.

You don't eat chips???

Well that calls everything you've said into question 🤔

No, they were looking for Percy Pig.

Sounds like you were in Charlton SE London branch OP.

Clapham branch introduced kiddie trollies.
Someone was actually paid for the idea of having toddlers pushing their own trolly next to mummy and daddy.

I still get these at Ocado and M&S.

Love the Charlton branch, was there today. What's up with it?

A joke about a post on page 1.

My local one is filled with students - Chinese and other overseas university students. I think there's possibly a good variety of types and quality of food there than other places.

Can you link please??

Some of the food items mentioned on this thread sound divine! What I shame I never see half of them on there thanks to bumbling Susan and her trolley constantly in the way

There are many aisles. Failing the use of a polite "excuse me!" I would just go round the other way.
Why are you so intolerant of other shoppers?. It's not your personal space.

I love a good thread about M&S. I bought a top form there last year. I’m really turning into my mother!

I’m going to my M&S food hall this afternoon.

Haha totally.

I sent my mum an M+S voucher for Mother's Day.
Am I a bad daughter?

Were they in the M&S in Broughton by the fish about 10 days ago?

That"s the spirit! Never let the buggers win! 🤣
