Shoppers are rushing to buy M&S Valentine’s Day essential for half price – but you’ll have to be quick
M&S fans have spotted a must-have Valentine's item reduced by half price.
Shoppers are eyeing up the treat as they prepare for Valentine's Day this week.
M&S fans have noticed a 460g Love Sausage advertised on Ocado for £3 instead of £6.
The treat is two heart-shaped pork sausages wrapped in bacon for a scrumptious V day breakfast.
The product description says it has a hint of truffle in flavour, and it's served best alongside a fried egg.
Comments on the item were gracious, with one writing: "Cooked really well (including the eggs) and was really tasty. Came out of the pan easily and looked great on the plate, especially for Valentine's.

"A winner in our house and we would buy again."
Another praised: "Absolutely loved this and a bonus that it is gluten free which you would never guess! It had a lovely smokey flavour with a hint of truffle, would definitely buy again."
And one more claimed it "definitely raised a smile", although they reckoned it was a lot for just two people.
At the moment the item is only available from Ocado, so you'll need to factor in added delivery costs.

Keep an eye on Asda, for example. In 2020 it brought out its own heart-shaped Cumberland pork sausage for two.
At the time it cost £3.70 for a pack of four sausages, bent into love heart shapes.
There are still other Valentine's offers in other supermarkets - for example, Tesco is doing lots of meal deals from steak dinners to pasta dishes for two.
You can scroll through the website for more - and remember you might get cheaper offers if you have a Clubcard.
Also, M&S has a Valentine's meal for two out now.
The options for M&S shoppers include a luxury prawn cocktail, sirloin steak, prosecco and more, all for £20.
Customers can save up to £17.50 on the price of buying a starter, sirloin steak, cheesy side, a chocolate pudding and a bottle or prosecco, all for two.
The deal is the same price as last year for the complete three-course meal for two.
