A303 - location of M&S Simply Food ? - loves her satnav
Driving back from Plymouth late last night we passed a bp connect service station that also had an M&S Simply Food shop - can anyone tell me where it is please - or if there is actually more than 1 ??

Thanks in advance

You passed this one so know where it is I hope :-) There many of these about (hundreds?) and a good way to find one is using the M&S site:

Putting Popham into the M&S site gets this:

Drives past somewhere but doesn't know where it is? Then I saw the user name - kind of says it all really...

be fair.....we've all been past somewhere...thought about it later, then tried to remember exactly where it was on the route... and the longer the journey, the more likelihood of not remembering exactly

And asking if there is more than one M&S Simply Food :-) You're having a laugh. Although some are closing.

ok everyone - in defence of females that like their satnavs.
a. It was NOT Popham or Buck Filing station
b. I had been driving for 250 miles without a break while 'He Who Must be Obeyed' cleaned his fingernails and had the satnat at his end of the motor.
c. I only drive along the A303 once every two years...

SATNAVS FOREVER !!!

They're quite clever little devizes, actually, although I don't want one.

You have the satnav in the car where you can't see it?

I am still puzzled on the original question. Go to the Marks and Spencer website and look for the store nearest you? You say you only do the journey infrequently so the next time you do the journey, it may not be there. In the meantime you may find yourself close to a few M&S Simply food stores. There are lots in service areas on motorways too.
