    Wow far from bargain ! more like a rip-off & even bigger rip-off. Tesco selling 6 x 500ml for 1.35 and expect lidl/aldi would be as competitive there. Is there something else special about the m&s version?

    M&S staff definitely made mistake, the bottle of water is 1.40 in Cafe, due to hight tax rate for hospitality, and 0.95 cent for same bottle of water in Food hall,

    Actually, bottled water can be much worse than tap water.

    It a few years now since I studied water treatment and distribution but I remember at the time it was highlighted that the public supply was required to meet a higher standard than bottled water. I also remember that any water that could be labelled mineral water was marginally better.
    I would never pay for bottled water.
    Its actually quite fully. There are many people buying bottles daily at day 1 euro each - 365 euro per year for 365 litres. I'd say a fair number of these same people are out protesting about household water charges.

    The staff in the food hall told me it should have been €1.40 and it scanned at €1.40 but the price on the display said .90c. They said the bottles shouldn't have been in the food hall. That they were for the cafeteria and were .90c there.
