‘Nailed it’ praise shoppers after M&S reveals it’s selling a Sunday roast for two worth £20 for just £12
MARKS and Spencer is selling a Sunday roast dinner meal deal for two – including a delicious piece of meat and three sides – for just £12.
Everyone loves a Sunday roast, but it can be a bit of an effort gathering all the ingredients you need before putting them together in the oven.
Now M&S’ bargain Dine In for Two has returned and you pick up all your roast favourites roasties, yorkies, veg and gravy.
The posh supermarket has run the deal in previous years, it was priced at £10 in 2023 and £8 in 2020.
The price of food like many other items has increased due to inflation and some supermarkets have been reducing the side of their products in order to keep prices the same, otherwise known as shrinkflation.
The delicious deal is for two and can be bought in all M&S Foodhalls but only for a limited time only.
The £12 deal will run in store from now until February 8, notably two weeks shorter than the deal ran last year.
If bought separately the items stacked up would cost at least £20 and M&S reckons you’ll save £6.75 on average with this deal.
Many shoppers have praised the supermarket for the bargain deal on Facebook and Instagram.
One shopper said: “Nailed it M&S.”
Another said: “Love the meal deals…there’s no waste.”
“Great offer. Had beef last night. Delicious,” declared someone else.
“Spoiled for choice! Looks great,” said a fourth user.
Though shoppers were quick to point out the deal offered no vegan or vegetarian options within the selected mains.

Iceland does a similar Sunday Roast deal which covers a joining, three sides or desserts and is enough to feed people.
Of course, you could look at buying the items separately, rather than as part of a deal.
It may be cheaper to head to a cheaper supermarket to choose your meat and pick up of M&S three for £7.50 deal on sides.
You can pick up M&S Colcannon Potato Mash, M&S Creamed Spinach, M&S Peas & Carrots with Mint Butter all for £7.50.
If you paired this with a meat joint from a cheaper another like Tesco that’s selling a £6 rotisserie chicken.

As an independent retailer, Ocado sets its own prices for M&S products including this deal so the products may be priced differently.

How to save money at M&S
Try keeping an eye out for red stickers on products that show you they have been reduced.
Most supermarkets have a dedicated space on the aise for these items and usually, items are marked down at certain times of the day.
Check with your local supermarket, they may be able to tell you when is the best time to shop to get the best offers.
Making a list before you venture out can also help you to save money, and keep the temptation to fill up the trolley with other things to a minimum.
Also, be sure to check out the supermarket’s own label brand as this is where you can make some serious savings compared to buying branded goods.
