M&S beauty calendar on offer for £35 when you spend £35 or more in home and beauty products but the glitch is it isn't looking at the current price when letting you have the calendar for £35 so you only need to spend £17.50 on half price beauty items to get it for £35 and as the total order is over £50 you get free home delivery or free delivery to store if that's easier for you.
Example
Add 3 of the Star Wars heat changing mug and shower gel sets that were £12.50 each now reduced to £6.25 each making £18.75 but M&S think you have spent £37.50 and give you the £250 calandar for £35
Works on all the half price items - the Star wars mugs are just examples. You need to add the calendar to your basket then the other half price items and it will show your basket as discounted by £215 (Difference between £250 and £35)
I know this might still be a good deal, but there's no way that calendar set can be anywhere near worth £250. There's no way they'd slash it that far; the markup must be ridiculous

The shop, the box was right next to the clear sticker which held the plastic lid on, no worries as there were only a few things I really wanted.

Did someone at home pinch it or was it done in the shop?? :confused:

I'm saving mine and I've told DH he can fill it next year with lots of lovely surprises for me, chocolate, diamonds and so on :wink:, saying that I'll get what I got in yesterday's box - nothing, it was empty, someone must have pinched it, glad it wasn't one of the items I really wanted.

I tried this and was told it was store policy to not put the advent calendar through unless someone had spent £35. 2 managers were brought into the conversation so had to just leave it at that.
Shame as I was getting an amazing deal if gross price was being used.

Was told it would be delivered yesterday so worked from home, nope, 5 of 6 items delivered. Called to ask why, they said low availability has caused delivery issues. Ok, fine, so when will it be delivered? Tomorrow they said for definite, so I've taken the day off.
Wake up today to an email stating there will be a 5 day delay on delivery. FFS
And they won't let me collect from my local store now either. Joke this is

I too received a partial dispatch notice that did not include the calendar. On speaking with MandS they have said that they are OOS and cant say whether it will be sent or not as they don't know if they will come back in stock. I ordered mine at 8am on Thursday - the first day the offer was available.

If you don't spend £35 on other products it comes up at £250 - person in the queue in front of me spent £34 and it didn't work so she went to get something else to take it to £35 so that it reduced £215 off the calendar,

Lol yes- we were all talking about this on the calendar deal thread first thing this morning... maybe you saw it? :man: Its not a glitch- same thing happened last year (but it was £25 for the calendar and £25 spend so it was even cheaper), they are fully aware of it. The cosmetic bag offer did not work with the combined calendar deal apparently which was very annoying- I tried at 8am and then the m and s staff online said it was because it couldn't be combined after I complained argh. They went out of stock anyway by like 9/10am but I can't resist checking every now and then incase they come back in- they're so cute!
I got 3 calendars this morning for friends- couldn't resist such a good price :smile:. And they have loads of stock this year which is great so I hope everyone manages to get one ok <3

Carina is correct. You can return the qualifying item or items and keep the calendar as you have purchase it. M&S have always allowed this with purchased gift sets. Therefore you can spend just £35 for the calendar as you will get your money back on the qualifying item or items.

You cannot just buy the gift for £35 you have to spend £35 on something priced over £35 and if you end up taking the original item back you can keep the calendar for £35
