Anyone else put off buying from M and S because of all the ads on here?

I have always shopped with them, but the constant promotional threads and cheeky automatic linking is putting me right off

Yes. And Uniqlo, with the sponsered threads. Very annoying.

The shit quality of clothes is more off putting, IMO.

Love a bit of Marksies - just got some new boots and a really nice , Massimo Dutti - like sweater. But ( and this is a huge but) they use FedEx and that is never an easy transaction. Day three of driving round the countryside trying to find my parcel.

Yes, this. Plus it has gotten really expensive over the last few years.

I do agree the trousers the cheaper ones I will not buy anymore, as both pairs I brought a year ago shrunk after one wash, I'm petite 5ft3 so the short only are just long enough , if they shrink I won't be able to wear them.

The sponsored threads can be bizarre. One said what do you think of Boden's new collection and next to it a thread where someone was mocking some of the latest stuff (quite aptly). I don't get what those sponsored threads are for.

Everyone keeps saying how great M&S are lately but I'm finding less than normal in there!!
