The little-known outlet offers some of the brand's best styles at a major discount and it's a savvy way to shop M&S virtually while online orders remain paused on their site
Marks and Spencer's online shopping has been on hold for over a month following a cyber attack during the Easter weekend, an incident that is estimated to cost the firm around £300m and isn't predicted to be resolved until July.
However, I've discovered a way to snag authentic M&S items without setting foot in a physical store. The retailer operates a lesser-known outlet on eBay, offering some of its most popular styles at significantly reduced prices.
Even better, customers can bag an extra 20% off with a handy discount code. To access these discounted rates, shoppers need to enter MAYPAY20 at checkout - a code valid until June 1 2025.
Among the bargains in the outlet sale are the Multi Coloured Viscose Tea Floral Midaxi Dress, now going for under £20, and the Black Tapered Trousers, priced at £13.
In other fashion deals, White Stuff is also offering up to 50% off hundreds of items, with the Sasha Tweedy Wide Leg Trousers have seen a price cut of over £50, now retailing at £22 instead of £75.
Boden is giving 15% off new womenswear styles when the discount code JM7D is applied at checkout. This reduces the price of the £146 Rhea Embroidered Midi Dress to £124.10 and brings the Westbourne Linen Trousers in paradise green down to £83.30 from £98, reports the Manchester Evening News.
