Popping in to Marks and Spencer for some picky bits and a bag of Percy Pigs is a luxury many adore - but have you ever queued up to get into your local store? One man was left baffled when he went to the St Alban's M&S, which is allegedly "one of the biggest" in the UK, and he had to queueto get through the door.

TikToker@lifeatgully said that this store apparently has items that "you don't normally see at other M&S shops," so he wanted to investigate what it was like for himself. But he had to wait first because other people were queuing to get in on Sunday morning.

He was shocked to see that M&S were selling Jaeger, and then noticed that this M&S had an opticians, as he remarked that he hadn't seen that in a store before.

"Honestly, I'm getting lost right now," he shared, as the shop was so vast, asking: "Mate, where would you even start in a Marks and Spencer this size?"

After browsing some suits and accidentally finding himself in the bra section, he wandered upstairs to the massive cafe they have upstairs. As he walked up there, he filmed the glass roof, joking that it was "one big greenhouse," so it was "warm".

The beauty section was huge, but he joked he wasn't "in the market" for anything they were selling, so he was most keen to browse the M&S food section.

He picked up some cookies he said had gone viral on social media, remarking: "Let's be honest, you're either a milk chocolate person or a triple chocolate person. I am a triple chocolate person. They look illegal".

Then, he showed off the Colin the Caterpillar stand, which was next to Percy Pig, and the options were endless.

"I didn't realise people still loved them," he admitted, referring to the confectionery.

Something that isn't at every Marks and Spencer is the refill station, where you can return your packaging and M&S will refill certain items for you.

Things you can get refilled are laundry detergents and the like. And if you scan the QR code, when you use your own packaging, you can get £2 off your next purchase.

The shopper decided to make some purchases, buying the milk chocolate cookies in the end, alongside some bananas, ham, raspberries, and a TRIPP drink, sharing that it came to almost a tenner.

"Suppose that's the M&S price, init," he ended his video by saying. But judging by the comments section, people think the queueing and prices are well worth it.

One Marks and Spencer fan gushed: "M&S food halls are like the best self-care one can give themselves".

Meanwhile, another said: "Love an M&S food hall. Their treats are dangerous."
