M&S Dine for two

oneweb · 10-10-2008 11:45am

Metro UK has a full-page ad for the Dine for Two offer. At £10 in the UK, we're getting even more of a bargain from the exchange rate!

kenco · 10-10-2008 12:00pm

Just back from Dundrum.

There a loads of chickens and a fair view of the turkey dishes. The other options for mains seemed to be dwindling apart from the sea bass. It looks like the restock the shelves several times a day as there are only 3 that they use for this offer.

Lots of veg options, only one white wine that I could see and a reasonable amount of deserts.

Interesting anyone in there before 10:30 (cant sell booze) were offered truffles instead of the booze

ErinGoBrath · 10-10-2008 5:06pm

Was in the Grafton St. branch at lunchtime today and the staff we're constantly restocking the shelves. Very well organised and astonishing value.

Thanks for the heads up lads

ronbyrne2005 · 10-10-2008 5:23pm

Anyone try the seabass? never had it before myself and thought it was a bit small portion wise. What other fish is seabass similar to?

BaZmO* · 10-10-2008 5:29pm

It's very light and flaky like Whiting. I've only ever had it in a restaurant and I liked it. Not very filling though.

ThOnda · 10-10-2008 8:19pm

I've finished the turkey with wegetables and pineaple jelly few moments ago. Niiiiiice

getoffthepot · 11-10-2008 3:51pm

We got a large chicken in dundrum as part of it with the bottle of wine, sticky toffee pud and potato for 12.50 - cheap as chips.

gilbert · 11-10-2008 10:11pm

some of extra large chicken is over 15 euro each,it is still part of offer.

JAMM222 · 11-10-2008 10:17pm

phasers · 12-10-2008 9:01am

the groutch · 22-10-2008 11:15pm

very similar to last time

Gran Hermano · 23-10-2008 2:55pm

I was in M&S at lunch, items on shelves same as those listed on the UK website.

Plenty of stock on shelves - I'd say it's a mix of the bad weather and the
novelty of this offer wearing off.

brettmirl · 23-10-2008 9:34pm

To be fair, you were there very early into the offer. Go there on Sat afternoon and I bet the shelves wont be as well stocked!

zAbbo · 23-10-2008 9:37pm

Shelves all stocked in the IFSC, had the Chicken Pie, Mash, Apple Pie - but had to ask for the OJ.

Yup - you can get 2 x 1ltrs of OJ instead of wine

Yes they had them in Mullingar today...

Tabitharose · 06-11-2008 11:41pm

got mine in Dundrum earlier didn't notice any scallops but then again wasn't looking for them so they may have been hiding there somewhere...

the groutch · 06-11-2008 11:51pm

catho_monster · 07-11-2008 10:43am
