Marks & Spencer brings outlet prices to the web

The retail giant says shoppers will get up to 40% off the usual high street and online prices on clothes.

This includes womenswear, lingerie, menswear and kidswear. M&S says it has "good availability across a range of sizes".

M&S Outlet launched in November 2000 with 50 such stores now in operation nationwide.

Outlet stores tend to sell last season's range meaning they usually offer cheaper prices than standard shops.

Customers who spend £30 or more at www.marksandspencer.com/outlet until Sunday 4 March will also get free UK delivery.

Meanwhile, anyone who signs up to the free M&S Newsletter can also get 10% off their first order with M&S Outlet online, with no end date to the promotion. Existing subscribers can get 10% off by signing up again.

Richard Fox, head of M&S Outlet, says: "The internet is often the first port of call for shoppers in search of a bargain, as it offers a quick and convenient way to compare the deals available.

"We've responded to our customers' increased demand for online access to great value by extending our popular outlet offer on our website."
