M&S have reduced the price of their Star of Wonder luxury gift collection from £40 to £17.50 which is a great price in itself for what you get (Contents & picture below) But the glitch is they are doing an offer of a FREE Christmas gift box worth £12 when you spend £75 or more on clothing, beauty or home. But as this gift set was originally £40, if you add 2 of them to your bag it thinks you have spent £80 when you have really only spent £35 and gives you the Chistmas gift box for free so potentially £92 worth of stuff for £35. It works on all the half price or less beauty sets but this seemed the best value - just ensure your spend at the "was" price totals £75 or more.
** YOU NEED TO ADD THE GIFTBOX OFF LINK BELOW TO YOUR BASKET IT WON'T ADD AUTOMATICALLY **
Update - you can only have the gift box home delivered so you need to pay £3.50 and may as well spend £50 and get free home delivery and return unwanted items to store?
Add one to your bag and it will become free in your basket when you spend what they think is £75 worth of stuff at full price.

Order something else to take it to £50 for free delivery - then you could return it for a refund if you change your mind.

Indeed. I often wonder if some of these "glitches" are engineered to a degree by the retailer. On the face of it £35 for the 2 gift sets and the free gift box is probably about right given the M&S brand - but £92 just seems a huge amount for what it is.

My order has just been delivered, happy with the star of wondersets, presents for the grans.
Like the free food box which is a wee gift from me :smiley:
The deal itself does sound good but..... handcream/bath foam/soap - I don't use any of them!! (prefer shower gels/handwash - just in case you all thought I was boggin!)
Perhaps a gift for older folk? (oooops!)

Thanks for the posting OP :smiley:
I've ordered The Korres Absolute shower gel collection to try at a reduced price. Seems this brand retails at c£8 per bottle (250ml) elsewhere so for me it's worth a try (can also gift other bottles to friends if good quality!)
Sorry - didn't notice that when I posted my comment! No brainer though if you want free delivery.

STAR OF WONDER GIFT COLLECTION - original price £40.....are they crazy?
I wouldn't even pay £17.50 for that,and their free gift gift isn't worth much either

When it comes to delivery, the hamper isn't available for store pickup which means you have to incur £3.50
