If you were as excited as we were at the prospect of a free M&S Big Daddy bar, then you may want to sit down for this one.
In what must be the retailer’s tastiest competition yet, M&S is giving away FIVE gift cards loaded with £1,800. That the equivalent of lunch, five days a week, for a whole year. Yes, really.
We’ve already started dreaming about what we’d spend it on if we were to win. For a start, we could indulge in our favourite M&S nacho salad every working day.
Or we might mix it up with sushi. The limited-edition Salt & Pepper Chicken Dragon Roll (£5, 176g) is incredible. But then we can never say no to a good sarnie. Our current obsession? The Pesto Chicken Bloomer (£5, 218g): soft bread, tender chicken and a punchy parmesan sauce with basil pesto mayo and spinach. Divine.
Either way, lunch al-desko never sounded so good.
How to win your M&S lunch for a year
Entering the competition is refreshingly simple.
Simply head to M&S Food’s guide to the best sandwiches and upload a picture of your favourite M&S lunch.
Your photo needs to feature at least one qualifying main product, such as a sandwich, wrap, roll, sushi or salad. You’ll then be in with the chance of winning one of five £1,800 M&S gift-card prizes.
You’ll need to be a UK resident aged 18 or over to enter and only one entry is permitted per person.
When does the competition end?
The competition is live now until the end of the month, so get snapping!
And if you needed an excuse to pop into M&S this week, we’d say the chance to win a free lunch for a whole year is a pretty good one.
