M&S Sparks 12 Days of Christmas

So today is the first day of the M&S 12 Days of Christmas Advent rewards on the app.
What have you got?
I've got a free M&S Tea Light Up Lantern - looks lovely but I don't drink tea. But it is free... tricky! It does say I have 11 days to use though, which is good.

It's a pity that we can't swap discount codes as then we'd all be happy & get something we want!

I had totally forgotten until you said this but didn't we do this last year? I am sure we were sending each other screenshots of our barcodes. I vaguely remember someone trying to get my Percy Pig cushion as we only have food halls in my city so we didn't have them!

These discounts are a bit of a farce. You can find discount codes online for many other shops throughout the year including M&S

Wow, they are really finishing on a high!!!! Makes up for all the crap that came before.

I got....

wait for it...

20% off kitchenware.

I have to say, this has been the biggest farce of a giveaway.

Where is the bonus offer? I got entry in top a competition for a holiday a few days ago.

Autumnnewname · 12/12/2022 00:06

20% off shoes.

Pile of crap

user143677433 · 12/12/2022 00:06

20% of women’s blouses for me 😂. Specifically not mens blouses it seems.

SweetSakura · 12/12/2022 00:08

20% off vests for me. Whoop. I mean, why not just do a 20% off code for twelve days rather than these pointlessly specific offers. I quite like m and s but didn't redeem any of mine, and certainly didn't get any freebies!

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 12/12/2022 00:20

20% off knitwear!
Totally pissed off with it this year.
I don't know why they bothered.
In fact M&S don't bother next year just give us more discounts & free treats throughout the year instead!

ADifferentKindofChristmas · 12/12/2022 00:20

20% off leggings for me.

Well, seeing as I look like Max Wall wearing them I think it is safe to say I won't be redeeming it.

Well a very strange thing has just happened when I went to look.

Door 12 was already opened with the 20% off candles that I know I opened yesterday as I posted about it.

Door 11 was not opened.
It was 20% off Nobody's .
Think it is clothes.

Why would it all change ?

Very weird 🧐🧐

bizzey · 12/12/2022 00:28

I did put an online order on 10th for the skincare offer and I bought a top.

All these items showing for Nobody's is online only.

Adultchildofelderlyparents · 12/12/2022 00:30

I've opened all of mine, nothing much exciting in there. Mostly %s off things I have no plans to buy. It does say a golden reward will arrive tomorrow. Hopefully it's an actual gift and not something I need to pay for!

Mine was the same!
I definitely opened 11 at this time yesterday, and found 20% off bags, but when I looked that’s now listed on 12 which was showing as already opened and 11 was closed.

I’ve reopened 11 and disappointingly found 20% off women’s nightwear.

ChristmasCwtch · 12/12/2022 00:40

20% of women’s knitwear. At long last it’s something useful. I’ve re-bought all of the items I bought earlier this month and will return them using the earlier receipts.

Really would have preferred 2 days of 20% off everything than the past 12 days of mostly useless offerings.

I reckon the day 12 bonus is a competition. Again, entirely pointless 🙄

Luxurysleuth007 · 12/12/2022 00:45

I thought this was going to be great when I started off on the free gin…(which tastes like cough medicine, utterly vile no wonder it was free).

The rest of the offers have been pitiful 20% off bollocks which they’re usually running through the year anyway. Waste of time.

M&S please do better next year.

Alakazam8 · 12/12/2022 05:49

My free gift on day 1 was a Percy pig bauble that they didn’t have in stock! Tried twice…and todays is 20% off women’s socks- M and S we need improvements next year or don’t waste our time please.

JustLurkingAway · 12/12/2022 06:44

20% off womens knitwear, thanks M&SEnvy

8misskitty8 · 12/12/2022 07:00

20% off handbags.

MissyB1 · 12/12/2022 07:20

Ffs! I got the 20% off kids nightwear but I’ve already had that one on day 8!!!

Annoying!! I just wanted a free coffee or even a box of mince pies!

Show quote history

Me too! Day 11 was 20% off knicker multipacks and that is now showing (opened) as day 12. Day 11 was showing unopened and is now 20% off bras.

pigonalipstick · 12/12/2022 07:29

20% off dressing gowns - are you fucking joking M&S?!

How is this a rewards a decent calendar. One freebie?! Evan a '£10 off £50' or some food offers would have been better than this.

And I've had normal sparks offers through while the advent has been on. Honestly what a waste of marketing this was!

cyrila · 12/12/2022 07:41

I cant believe there's so much moaning. It's Christmas, it's not costing you anything and you don't have to open it. Some of the money off vouchers have been useful to me, others haven't. They're damned if they do, damned if they don't.

Wherediditallgo · 12/12/2022 07:46

My app is saying that my golden gift will be available tomorrow.

FerretInAFrock · 12/12/2022 08:55

20% of multipack knickers
