Can we have a “nice stuff at M&S” thread”?

It’s 20% off code this weekend so I’m off to get shoes and socks for DS, a couple of bras for me (they fit me well as long as I fend off any helpful attempts by their fitters to resize me into a 34AA) and some camisoles/vests to layer under stuff.

And possibly some crazy suede stilettos for work as well (they never leave the carpet and only have to walk for twenty yards at a time so I can go mad with height)
www.marksandspencer.com/leather-stiletto-heel-strap-court-shoes/p/p60143557?carousel=FUNH_RR_REFER. And I need a few basic jumpers as well.

On the grounds that M&S are a nice enough British owned company who pay their taxes and AFAIK have decent working conditions, and the high street is having a tough time at the moment, is anyone up to the challenge of suggesting other hidden gems that would be a good buy with the discount code?

I’ve still got some codes left, if anyone wants to pm me? - I can’t work out from the thread who has and hasn’t been sent one.

May I have a code too please?

I have my eye on this little jacket and want to get some vests and loose tops for BF.

It's hard to resist their beautiful baby clothes too and DD born yesterday was so big that I need to buy a bigger size already😍

I agree with thedevilinablackdress about menswear knitted stuff. The problem I have with the women's knitwear is that the sleeves are often too short, and the pieces are just too fussy. I have a lilac cotton crew neck jumper from the menswear department that I can wash and tumble dry, and even allow for a little shrinkage.

I really like that dress RockinRobinTweets. It's ideal for work.

dramaqueen · 03/03/2018 08:38

didius just pm'd you. I'd love a code please

Tiddlywinks63 · 03/03/2018 08:42

I have 6 spare codes if anyone would like one 🙂

CanIBuffalo · 03/03/2018 08:45

I bought the metallic drawstring waist parka as a friend had it and it's great. I bought it in navy but it's more like a metallic charcoal/navy

If anyone has a spare code, i’d be grateful! Thanks 😀

LoniceraJaponica · 03/03/2018 09:53

I have been browsing the M and S website since reading this thread, and seen a few nice things. My bank account won't thank you lot Grin

AuditAngel · 03/03/2018 10:07

This is quite timely as I need a dress for a funeral. I was looking last night, but didn't realised I could get 20% off. And I have a code

Thanks

Jagsy · 03/03/2018 11:34

Pls can anyone share a code with me? Checked my sparks account and only offered food discounts.

ToffeeSauce · 03/03/2018 11:45

I bought that blazer already!

OutsideContextProblem · 03/03/2018 13:23

The ribbed viscose polonecks are a good solid staple for workwear.

Are there any codes still going spare at all please? DD in need of new pants lol.

LoniceraJaponica · 03/03/2018 14:24

Those shoes are really pretty Tinycitrus. However, they don't look comfortable to me. I doubt that I would be able to walk in anything that high.

Double breasted blazers look awful on me. Having no boobs they drown me and make me look even more flat chested.

Now that M and S seem to have got their act together with their Sparks card I may consider getting one.

ShebaQueen · 03/03/2018 15:16

I bought this last week before the code was issued, but am so pleased with it, can really recommend:

I've got 30% off ( staff discount) and cant find anything.

LoniceraJaponica · 03/03/2018 15:39

I love that shirt but they only have sizes 6, 20 and 22 in stock Sad

Chocolateteabag · 03/03/2018 15:43

Oh faff - I had the 20% off code last week - does anyone have a spare they could PM me? Typically I couldn't see anything I liked last week.

Anyone with a Sparks card who hasn't yet had the 20% - I would imagine you'll get it next weekend

I went into the store today and used one of the coupons, he said they have extended them to Thursday due to the weather! Not sure if this is across the board or just in my local one (Hedge End, Southampton).
