I'm trying to enjoy my cake bob! ).

NXT online needs work imv which appears to be acknowledged today,
they usually get their clothing offer about right, but no expert.

Bought two sale items from Mr Porter, both returned as sizing too small,
skinny jeans and slim cuts back in, less cake after this week.

When you see a product reduced from £18 to £4 then one has to wonder if £18 was justifiable to start with or total wrong pricing.....

Esential , each year my wife and two girls spend about £ 600 at the next VIP and in store sale . This year they spent about £25 at Next.
Something gone wrong I think at Next.

Got three turkeys for a fiver each , reduced from £40 . That's good. Old Marks and Spencer

It could have been 100 worse, very lucky.

The Mrs brought home a MKS Iced Christmas cake, reduced from £18 to £4, bloody delicious, one of their premium range.

Always the way EI ;-)

After a good start yesterday my portfolio`s back where it started the year tonight.

[essentialinvestor] 04/1/2017 17:05

Not by the standards of NEXT! which I brilliantly bought before the close yesterday,
irony intended.

[philanderer] 04/1/2017 17:02

Well that was a dog of a day !

[diku] 04/1/2017 13:59

That might just give a boost to sales figures!...

[essentialinvestor] 04/1/2017 13:52

2.50 is what I paid each for 300g packets of their smoked salmon on reduction,
bought 3 and sorry it was not 6 as it is very nice indeed.

[bigboots] 04/1/2017 13:44

Follow the chart £2.99

[diku] 04/1/2017 12:39

What chance DB fee paying clients were short before Christmas?...

[omega1525] 04/1/2017 12:35

6.5 million buys
3.5 million sells
so far today cannot see these down for long

[oldvic] 04/1/2017 12:35

take over target
still

[philanderer] 04/1/2017 11:52

Good to see some buying :-)

[bag1] 04/1/2017 09:47

M&S Food + Xmas = Further share price recovery IMO - time will tell.

[careful] 04/1/2017 09:39

we do not want to tie up with next.
a strange company with a turnover just over £4bn and hardly any assets.

[diku] 04/1/2017 09:34

It goes in a sequence...if the first major retailer is down on trading update then the next retailer's trading update will be up or not as bad as market expected....same palawa this time every year....hope its good for M&S....

Can anybody see M&S & NXT tie up or would that fall foul of competition...

[freedom97] 04/1/2017 09:04

Yes, the market is expecting a rubbish trading update, lets hope figures are better than expected, then we will see a major rally!

[philanderer] 04/1/2017 08:59

Hopefully that`s MKS next week`s expected rubbish Q3 trading update priced in now.

[freedom97] 04/1/2017 08:58

Women never! give up buying clothes, so maybe Next shoppers have gone to M&S!

Remember, I posted on the 28th Dec. that I noticed on Topcashback.co.uk on Boxing day, that out of hundreds of retailers, M&S was in the top three most searched for. So it looks like their online business might have done very well. Well, we shall soon find out.

[par555] 04/1/2017 08:40

At the other end of the spectrum B&M up 6% this morning on record Xmas trading.

[bag1] 04/1/2017 08:28

Next reaction only!

[diku] 04/1/2017 08:17

Falling on deaf ears or they have a different agenda...
