I know its early but....
I really want to do my M&S order..It isn't available online yet so i went on the online chat to ask when it would be available and was told probably early Nov (!!!!) Thats so late for me! (Im crazy I know)
Hopefully its earlier than that...Maybe they were having a bit of fun at my expense for asking such a question haha!!
Anyways, what will you all be reordering this year? what was yummy and what not so much?
I remember the desserts going down well but not so much the buffet platters (sausage rolls etc) :)

Ordering goes live from Monday through to December 15th for Xmas orders and 20th for new year. The deposit this year has been increased to £30 regardless of number of items.
There is an early bird offer of a bottle or red/white wine or chocolates on an estimated order of £75 or more.
Seasonal saver menus are the same price and contents as last year including the same chocolate Xmas tree dessert.

I can't quite believe it is almost food ordering time and I never realised! We ordered turkey and a few bits last year and arranged pick up for 7.30am on christmas eve. dh went to get it whilst dd and I stayed in our pj's and watched Christmas films. dh was out for about an hour and only queued for 30 mins. I'm definitely doing the same this year!

We got our turkey crown this year from there. OMG so worth it

Spotty you are right it is Thursday 8th in store and online, next time I will pay more attention to the text rather than flicking straight to the food pictures.

I would pick stuff up instore, but the kids have been breaking up at least a week before Christmas for the past few years, which makes that impossible. Before we discovered the online stuff, we used to go in at about 7:30am couple of days before Christmas and the queue would take half an hour to reach the checkouts.

With the online order, at our local stores, I order and DH collects it either before going to work or after work on Christmas eve. He's usually in and out within 15 minutes.

the pictures are the best bit I'm sure! What time can you do it from online do you know?

I've been saving on an M&S gift card all year - if you pay the £30 deposit online does anyone know if you can pay via gift card when you collect the order? TIA
