M&S Sparks 12 Days of Christmas

982 replies

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.

Yup. No golden door here either. Was stupidly excited for it. 🥴

Same. I know it's probably going to be another ridiculous discount that I won't use, but being promised one last reward and then denied the joy of finding out I had 12% off some obscure brand i'd never heard of or will ever use is most disappointing. 🤣

Same. It's been a piss poor PR exercise.

No golden door for me either - what a load of 💩 it's been this year.

There's a few complaints on their Facebook page

FredaFox · 13/12/2022 07:48

No golden door or surprise and the 12 days thing has disappeared from the home page now

Alakazam8 · 13/12/2022 07:50

Nothing here either!!! What a joke!!

ADifferentKindofChristmas · 13/12/2022 07:59

No Golden Door for me yet.............

ChristmasJingleBalls · 13/12/2022 08:12

Apparently we should have had the chance to enter a competition on one of the days, never got that.

JanetheObscure · 13/12/2022 08:13

Has anyone got the bonus? I haven’t.

This has been such an exercise in overhype. I got free Prosecco on day one and have used two of their discounts and I’m still disappointed.

ChristmasJingleBalls · 13/12/2022 08:17

Nope.

Trees6 · 13/12/2022 08:21

Nothing here. Hopefully a glitch

Thindog · 13/12/2022 08:27

Same here ,doors disappeared despite opening all 12 and getting a message to come back today for a golden reward! Hopes raised and dashed😂

mum2jakie · 13/12/2022 08:32

No golden balls here either. I did enter the competition yesterday though

EVHead · 13/12/2022 08:36

I don’t get it. Where’s my golden door?! 😿

Alwaystired99 · 13/12/2022 08:37

Nothing here either; even after updating the app although I'd forgotten I haven't claimed my free "treat" of a gingham make up bag that nowhere will have in stock. As a marketing exercise it should be studied in how bad it is.

Iwannabeacrocodilehunter · 13/12/2022 08:42

No golden door for me either.

emmathedilemma · 13/12/2022 08:51

nothing here either, thought I was just being blind this morning but seemingly not! At least I managed to claim my percy pigs yesterday 🐷

deflatedbirthday · 13/12/2022 08:53

None for me either!

MischiefTheChicken · 13/12/2022 09:03

Came here especially to see if anyone else was missing their golden reward, at least it’s not just me! I collected my day 1 free shortbread Christmas trees yesterday, DD and I spent 20 minutes hunting round the store and discovering they keep biscuits in about 7 different places.
Now I have a 12 Days of Sparks carousel in the Sparks tab in my app with the not-yet-expired offers on it, I did scroll through that to see if the golden one was included somewhere, but nothing.
I’ve seen people on another thread saying we’re not entitled to be disappointed when they have given us all a free gift but I did expect the offers to be tailored to my shopping habits (all that data they have collected from me over the years) and I thought it would be more of a mixture of competitions etc rather than just % discounts every day

I saw this but only found out today it was part of the ‘advent calendar’ as it didn’t come behind one of the doors. It was right down at the bottom underneath my regular sparks offers and my supported charity. It was a holiday to Canada but I can’t remember if I got round to entering or not.

Fomn · 13/12/2022 10:33

Golden offer finally on the app - 30% off Christmas decorations 😕

TheVeryHungryTortoise · 13/12/2022 10:35

Same, 30% off Christmas decorations. What an absolute joke!

MadisonAvenue · 13/12/2022 10:37

I haven’t got the 12 windows showing on the app now, I’m assuming the golden offer appears alongside those?
