A third user shared: “Wow! Well done you Emma! M&S bags are amazing when you can get them. We’ve had a few from a Simply Food at a motorway services a few miles away and they’re always great value with good stuff.

"Unfortunately (and not a bad thing, as it means there’s no food waste), they often cancel on us. I always try though, and we do get lucky from time to time.”
