High Street & online sales

Includes M&S own-brand, plus big brands such as Tommy Hilfiger, FatFace and Crew Clothing

M&S has launched an 'up to 50% off' sale online* and in stores, with discounts across women's, men's and kids' clothing, as well as homeware.

The strongest discounts we've spotted are on M&S own-brand items, which is a flat 50% off. Big brands are also included in the sale, such as Tommy Hilfiger, White Stuff, FatFace, Crew Clothing and Nobody's Child. From what we can see, brands are mostly 40% or 50% off.

As it's a sale, availability of some items is likely to be limited, so go quick if there's something you're after. What's discounted in-store will of course be dependent on what's in stock at particular locations.

Here are a few examples of discounts we spotted:

• M&S cotton rich textured cropped knitted top* – £10, was £20

• M&S pure cotton checked dress (6-16 years)* – £10, was £20

• FatFace cotton-rich V-neck top* – £14.75, was £29.50. Next cheapest, £18 at FatFace

• Pure cotton leaf print polo shirt* – £15, was £30

• M&S textured square-neck swimsuit* – £19.75, was £39.50

• White Stuff pure cotton striped crew neck jumper* – £30, was £60. CHEAPER at White Stuff for £24

• Tommy Hilfiger pure cotton striped button detail T-shirt* – £39, was £65. Next cheapest, £65 at Very

If buying online, delivery's £3.99, or free if you're spending £60 or more. In-store click & collect is also free.

M&S may not always be the cheapest place to buy branded items, even in a sale – this was particularly the case with White Stuff when we looked. Always compare prices elsewhere to check you're getting a good deal. Most branded items were either 40% or 50% off.

Likely to boost? The sale boosted from 'up to 50% off' to 'up to 70% off' on Monday 22 December. We don't normally see it boost any further, but as it strengthened the deal pre-Christmas instead of its normal post-Christmas boost, there's a chance it could deepen further in January

You can find discounts of up to 50% at sportswear brand Puma* in its ongoing sale online. Delivery's £3.95.

As is the nature of sales, stock may be limited - so go quick if there's something you're after.
