Marks & Spencer extended its “One Day Christmas Spectacular” offer into a second day after its website went belly up during its pre-Xmas sale.
The struggling high street retailer had tried to drum up trade with a 20 per cent-off bonanza in its stores and on its website yesterday. But so many people responded online yesterday, the M&S site fell over for several hours during the middle of the day.
As a result, the retailer has now extended its offer until this afternoon to appease frustrated shoppers. Not what you want.,
