Shopping Online Homepage

Question: When you're shopping online and you 'save for later', can you go back to buy it?

I just saved these trainers for my dad on the Marks and Spencers website and i want to know if it'll still be there on Friday.

It depends on the web-site - unless it's a site like Amazon where it has your details in their system and can save your shopping basket on their system, then probably not. All the other sites do is place a short-lived cookie on your computer and read that back. It certainly doesn't reserve the actual products for you. Just bookmark the product page.

Usually we never go back again but if the product is really value for money and good then I surely go back to buy.

"Save for Later " usually means that you save the page, so you don't have to fill in all the details again but you have not reserved the item so if they sell out that's tough luck.
