The (whispers) M&S food book

[loflo]

So I found a thread from last year that suggested the food book came out at the start of September? Has anyone seen it yet?? Or any inside info??? I lurves the Christmas food book

I keep passing the order desk in my local everyday on my lunchbreak in the hope its out, god I'm a right saddo!

I've heard it's more early October.

I searched for it (without success) online yesterday. I'm hoping to actually stay at home this year so M&S Christmas food featuring high on my essentials

Shall have to try and remain patient then!!!

I didn't even know it exsisted

Is this the instore / online ordering then?

it is usually mid October before it comes out.

You get the book 70 and you can order all your food for pick up at Christmas and new year.

Usually it is for when you are catering big but turkey, ham, beef, lamb, veg, deserts etc.

Didnt pre order last year and couldnt get the bits we wanted in store so am also waiting for the book. Theres only the three of us but they cater for all sizes.

Only 3 of us too. I get m&s vouchers on the run up to Christmas so generally only have to put £10-£20 to my order and we get obscene amounts of food. Lol! Our meal maybe costs £70-£80 but that includes leftovers and lots of it for later on/next day.

I went out a few years back to a local hotel and we were £50 each so I justify the spend that way :)

FYI M&S have commented on their facebook page that their christmas food catalogue will be out on 10th October along with their gift guide. Online ordering for food will be live then too. Still a wee while away :(

Does anyone know if you pay when ordering or when collecting?
(Hoping it's collecting)

You pay £20 deposit upfront then the balance at collection

Thanks, that sounds fine.
Will look out for the book.

It's out on the 16th October

16th October sounds late - I put my order in on the 13th last year.

I was told the 7th, others have been told the 10th.

I hope it isn't the 16th because I want to order before I go on holiday on the 18th.

Ooo I can't wait for the food book! I'm so glad I'm not the only one! I call it the food porn book lol

Spoke to my local M&S about when I can pick up a copy of their Christmas food to go catalogue, they told me they will be in my local store on Thursday 10th October 2013. I don't know if this is the same for every store.
