M&S Food #3

[Jellybean79]

Just tried the chocolate orange cake jar (it’s my birthday so it’s allowed at this time of the day ). I love choc orange but it was too much even for me. First spoonful was nice but i should have stopped there. Feeling sick now

I don't find chocolate stirrers really work that well, you end up with the 1st few mouthfuls being barely chocolately and the last few being sludge

Agree, they'd be better off launching some hot chocolate and coffee syrups. I don't think they do their own atm, but I could be wrong.

Got those small chocolate puddings that you put in the oven to try.

Also a stone baked ham, mushroom pizza and the bigger style mozzarella sticks

I got the Easter version of this and it went in the bin. Not even my sugar crazed kids would eat it

Tbh I’m not surprised it’s already reduced, they had shelves full of them in 3 locations before they were reduced!
even half price there wasn’t throngs of customers fighting over them ha

I know some m&s fans use Ocado. As a Smartpass customer I got an email saying I could book a Christmas delivery from today. When I logged in the best I could book was 20th December. I tried Waitrose, I have now booked a delivery for 24th December(1-2pm). I've placed a £40 delivery to hold the slot, £3 delivery charge. Shared just for info.

Thanks for the warning. I just booked one for the 23rd.

A bit stupid to say, but it looks better from the packaging - it's a 7 not a 6 like cornish cruncher extra mature and is matured for a 1 year longer. I want

Waitrose have a 6 one and a 7 one, both the same price. The 7 one is harder to find in my experience. I like them both.

I don't know if those cheese strengths are comparable between different stores. I've always assumed they are just made up rather than some global standard for cheese strength but I could be wrong.

Surely the whole point of a cake jar is that you put the lid back on when you've had enough and come back to it later.

I couldn't even come back to it.... it was gross

You guys very nearly convinced me to get the burger spring rolls when I was there last night, but then I saw they were £5.50. Maybe if there were yellow sticker, but not full price!

I felt this way too - also about the mini battered sausages I just cannot

 

[Ensay]

These are fab , in the freezer section . I’ve just cooked the whole pack!

Agreed. I've bought them myself; they're delicious.

 

[Ravenstown]

I’m sorry im new here but please tell me there is love here for Cornish cruncher cheese? I could demolish that stuff

I'm all over the biscuits!

Is anyone getting the money off vouchers anymore? 3 weeks without a voucher ….

20% off Swimwear - Leggings - Tops, Hoodies and Sweatshirts - Merino Wool Knitwear. Got them about 2 weeks ago with 3 days left on them.
Hubby has not had a thing.

The burger spring rolls best spring rolls I’ve had, I don’t usually enjoy spring rolls much as I always find them soggy but these are nice a crispy. Couldn’t taste the gerkin unless I dipped into the burger sauce so I didn’t use much of the sauce.

100% agree. I popped mine in the air fryer and they were gorgeous. I’m going again next weekend to get some more.

The turkey one? I thought they started doing it all year round. Possibly been taken off the shelves temporarily as they will probably switch to Christmassy packaging?

No way?! I haven't seen it. But since the panny most of my branches have a much smaller sanadwich section.
I also like the veggie christmas sandwich, I think it was brie, cranberry and grape? Although as I type that I feel that some bacon would set that off nicely, lol.

 

[rivermonster]

Is this the meaty wreath…plant kitchen?

These were last year, not seen them yet for this year.

 

[ATV2021]

I got the Clementine gin and the Marc De Champagne truffles for xmas. I also picked up the Turkey feast combo mix and they are delicious, they didn't have any of the light up house biscuit tins.

I just got those crisps too. The biscuit tin shelf has been empty in my store for days now! I got the tea tin instead

 

[rainbowlemon]

Is the Halloween stuff likely to be reduced today? I figure it's more likely to be reduced once it's near the use by dates?

Wondering this too or thinking I should just go early in the morning tomorrow.

I got this one and the movie, no food freebie yet. I was going to wait until maybe after Black friday for an offer to pop up as I was going to place a clothing order anyway.

View attachment 848664

I think I had that when I first signed up (maybe only 10% though?) as well as a €5 off when you spend €35 that's still good for 9 days.
The free pastry must have been triggered by spending around €100 online last week.

Would be so good to get some insight of how the algorithms work.

I’m sure it’s based on previous purchases but things that haven’t been bought in a while to try and entice you to buy them again
