Marks & Spencer needs little introduction: it's one of the UK's best-known high-street names, selling clothing, lingerie, beauty, homeware, furniture and its well-known food range. Online it also stocks brands such as Jaeger, Hush, FatFace and Sweaty Betty alongside its own labels. It suits shoppers who want dependable wardrobe basics, good-value bedding and homeware, or gifts that are easy to buy and return.
What's worth a look
Prices below are as shown on the M&S site today and can change. Sale prices may vary by colour.
- Autograph Pure Cashmere Crew Neck Jumper: currently £90. It's a regular-fit, crew-neck women's jumper in pure cashmere, available in several colours, from bitter chocolate to ivory. A good autumn layer if you want proper cashmere without designer prices. Some reviewers on the page mention sizing up or down, so read the reviews first. You'll find more styles in the women's cashmere edit.
- M&S Wooden Advent Townhouse: currently £25. It's a reusable wooden advent calendar you fill yourself. Good for families who want something to bring out every December instead of buying a new calendar each year. The Wooden Stripe Tree Advent Calendar is currently £10 if you want a smaller one.
- M&S X Kelly Hoppen 12 Days of Wellness Advent Calendar: currently £120. It's a 12-day countdown gift set from the Kelly Hoppen collaboration, for someone who'd prefer pampering to chocolate. More options are in the advent calendar range.
- M&S X Fired Earth 2 Pack Washed Cotton Square Pillowcases: currently £5.19 in Carbon Blue (was £17.50) in the home sale. A cheap way to refresh a bed with designer-collaboration bedding.
- Pure Cotton Velvet Cushion: currently £5.79 in Dark Graphite (was £19.50). A small, low-cost update for a sofa or bed. Other sale colours may be priced differently.

How to save more
- Join Sparks before you shop. It's free, and as well as the birthday treat and personalised offers, the site is currently promoting early access to the beauty advent calendar for members.
- If your basket is under £75, use free Click & Collect rather than paying for delivery. Free returns mean you can try sizes at home, which helps with knitwear.
- Check the Price Drop section as well as the sale. M&S lists price-reduced lines there separately, so it's worth a look before paying full price.
