Marks and Spencer has launched its Christmas shop with more than 120 items, including the Five Pack Colin the Caterpillar Decorations. Originally priced at £20, savvy shoppers can reduce the cost to £4.50 — just 90p per bauble — by stacking a new-member bonus from cashback site TopCashback.
How the deal works
TopCashback is offering new members a £15 welcome bonus, plus additional cashback when they spend £15 or more at Marks and Spencer on their first purchase. After all deductions, the Five Pack Colin the Caterpillar Decorations effectively costs £4.50, or 90p per bauble. Existing M&S shoppers who are new to TopCashback can secure the set for £4.83, roughly 98p per bauble.
Setting up a TopCashback account is free and takes only a couple of minutes, according to the Manchester Evening News. The reduced price includes free click-and-collect, while standard home delivery starts at £3.99, or is free on orders over £60.
Product details and alternatives
Each bauble is crafted from glass and is an intricately detailed miniature replica of the famous chocolate Colin cake. The pack contains five identical mini Colins, which may look repetitive on smaller trees. The baubles are delicate glass, not shatterproof plastic, so they may not suit homes with pets or toddlers.
The full £20 is due upfront, and cashback plus the bonus typically appears in TopCashback accounts within seven days of purchase. Full terms and conditions are available on the website.
For shoppers seeking alternatives, Next's Natural Hamish The Highland Cow Hugging Ornament costs £15 and is made from resin. Argos offers the Pack of 49 Scandi Christmas Baubles for £15, featuring embossed stars, iridescent shine, matte surfaces and disco-inspired designs, all pre-threaded with gold cord.
Steps to claim the deal
To get the baubles for £4.50, shoppers should sign up as a new TopCashback member via the deal link, search for 'Marks and Spencer' on the site, click through, and purchase the item as usual. The £15 cashback is earned when spending £15 or more, and appears on the TopCashback 'Earnings page' within seven days of purchase.
The M&S Five Pack Colin the Caterpillar Decorations have not yet earned customer reviews on the M&S website, but these nostalgic baubles are likely to sell out fast.
