Marks and Spencer shoppers are excitedly racing to stores and going online after finding a selection of high-quality Apothecary products slashed to half price. M&S has launched a new Wellness Bag, which was originally priced at £50 but can now be snagged for only £25 as Black Friday approaches.
Apothecary is Marks and Spencer’s special range of bath and body care products, featuring lovely fragrances from the ‘Calm’, ‘Sleep’, ‘Restore’, and ‘Balance’ collections. The Wellness Bag’s significant price reduction to half its original cost was shared with fellow shoppers in the popular Facebook group Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK.
One bargain-hunter named Sarah uploaded a picture of the M&S Wellness Bag and wrote: “If you or know someone who likes M&S Apothecary, I’d recommend taking a look at M&S online. £50 down to £25. Great Christmas present.”
In the comments, Elizabeth expressed her gratitude, saying: “Thank you! I was really close to paying full price for this!” Grace chimed in: “I love everything here, it all smells incredible.”
Martine commented: “This is beautiful, thank you!” Susan mentioned: “Thanks, I just ordered it. Perfect gift!” Karen wrote: “I really appreciate you sharing this. I would have never thought to look it up on my own.”

A description of the £25 Wellness Bag online reads: “Discover the soothing power of essential oils with this Apothecary Wellness Bag, featuring the very best products from across the collection. These products feature fragrances containing essential oils which are considered to have soothing and calming qualities to promote wellbeing.”
In the reviews section, Sue said: “Looks great quality and good value for money.” A second wrote: “Wanted something for a friend’s birthday. Loved the tote bag that it came in. The products are luxurious and good sizes. I’m hoping if I drop enough hints I might get someone to buy one for me too.”
A third added: “Christmas present for my daughter who loves all the Apothecary range.” Debbie typed: “Absolutely love this.” So far, all reviews are five stars out of five.
The £25 WellnessBag qualifies for free delivery, but you need to make a total purchase of £60 to take advantage of that. This means you’ll have to add another £35 to your order to skip the delivery charges. The tote bag is crafted from 61% polyester, 30% cotton, and 9% viscose, and keep in mind that polyester isn’t the most biodegradable material.
