£200 to spend in M&S

I got vouchers from FIL. I'm planning on some new bras. Is there anything else worth getting?

I'm trying to think what I need - I'd like some trousers for the weekend and maybe a skirt - denim? There was a nice cord one. Can I wear a knee length skirt with biker boots?

Or should I just get 20 dine in for £10

Knickers?

at 20 dine in meal deals. Bought some shoes for work in the sale yesterday but apart from that I couldn't find anything else I liked.

I often like their leather bags actually.

For god sake only buy bras if you've measured yourself according to the bra threads and you aren't above a d cup.
Do not get measured by them. Search for the bra intervention threads please.

If you are already intimated then buy leather boots and bags.
Enjoy

Sorry what? I meant initiated. Obviously.

Are you over 60? If so go for clothes. If not under wear and food will be your best bet .

Good idea

PetiteMum · 27/12/2013 21:45

Autograph towels are nice. And I like the kids clothes

Look at the Beauty section. If you are near a reasonably sized M and S, go and have a look around. If not, look on-line. It really is amazing, and there have been lots of offers over Christmas. The perfume section is particularly great.

I think I'd manage to spend £200 in the clothes and beauty section quite easily, you know. I'm not sure I'm terribly dowdy.

Mind you, I think I might save a little for the sloe gin. I love the sloe gin.

thecatfromjapan · 27/12/2013 22:33

Oh, I see you've decided on bedding.

Beautiful floral arrangement or lovely flowers for a proper gift to lift your spirits every time you look at them

NoComet · 27/12/2013 22:59

Jeggins for me, school (ladies) trousers for DD1 and uniform for DD2. Except neither need them.

AlaskaNebraska · 28/12/2013 05:39

Limited edition. I like that. Plus autograph bags

IAmNotDarling · 28/12/2013 07:59

I don't rate the footwear at all anymore so I'd go for homewear too.

Bedding sounds lovely or what about some nice cushions and a throw?

I'd forgotten about the beauty hall. We have a massive one near us. Planning to go either Monday or Thursday without children!!
