You can get a voucher for £5 off a £35 spend at M&S when you recycle at least one M&S-branded item by taking it to an Oxfam shop.

Simply take an old piece of M&S clothing or soft furnishings into your local Oxfam shop, where you'll get the voucher. M&S says you'll get one for every donation you make containing its clothing. For more info, see 'How can I get a £5 M&S voucher from Oxfam?'*

If you go online to M&S*, you can get 20% off when you buy two pieces of selected furniture, including bedroom, living room, kitchen, nursery and dining room furniture.

On the M&S website it says delivery's usually free for most furniture items. We've asked M&S for full details on furniture delivery and we'll update you here when we know more.

Add two of the selected items to your basket and the 20% discount will be automatically applied at the checkout. 

M&S no longer has an outlet online. However, you can still shop for bargains at M&S outlet stores* (click to find your nearest). There are about 50 M&S outlets across the UK, including Ashford, Cheshire Oaks, Doncaster, Gunwharf Quays (Portsmouth) and Wembley.

If you go online to M&S* or into a store, you can get 4for3 on selected knickers. Delivery's £3.50 or collect in store for free.

Add three items from the 4for3 mix & match selection* to your basket and the cost of the cheapest one will be automatically deducted at the checkout. In stores, items valid in the 3for2 will be clearly marked.

There are always ways to save money at M&S*, so even if there isn’t a cracking deal out there that works for you, don’t assume you can’t cut your costs further.

Ways to save include:

• Free Click & Collect. Every online purchase is eligible for free Click & Collect and there's no minimum spend required. 


• Try haggling. In May 2016 we polled 1,400 MoneySavers to see in which shops they had most success and M&S came in the top 10, with a 39% success rate - so it's worth a go. Read our Haggle on the High Street guide for more haggling tips.


• Check the online offers page. The M&S offers page* lists offers from all departments - these are often on multi-buys, so it's worth checking if you need to buy more than one of something.


• Check out similar retailers, eg, Debenhams and Dorothy Perkins. If you're not committed to buying from M&S, check out our deals from Debenhams, Dorothy Perkins, John Lewis, House of Fraser, Very and Littlewoods, where there may be a better offer.


• Had a problem with M&S? There’s a free online tool you can use to complain – it helps draft, manage and if necessary escalate your complaint. It’s offered by a firm called Resolver, which we like so much we work with it to help people get complaints justice – you can use it to complain to M&S*.
