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.

Gin is a full sized bottle, on sale at £10, marked down from £15 I think. I picked mine up this morning from a big out of town M&S. They had loads of the gin and a lot of the other things mentioned on this thread. They're probably giving away stuff they have a surplus of, but I'm not complaining, I love a freebie, especially an M&S freebie.

Just a heads up to anyone new to the advent calendar… you need to check every day. If you miss day 2 and check the app on day 3, you won’t be able to open day 2. It can only be opened on the actual day!!

Thanks for that. I've put it on my tabs which I check every day.

In trouble here, apparently low tyre pressure warning light has come up on car - DH reckons it's down to me driving over a pothole/glass (I didn't, honest). He's hoping the tyre will be ok when he leaves work - if not, I have a plan, he can have the spiced plum gin NOW😂

Interested in this thread?

Has the gift got any relevance to how much you spend in store do you think?

I was wondering this!

So the gin is £10 - is that the highest price so far?
Prosecco generally £8

And then a sliding scale down so the footballs??

I've signed up and downloaded the app but all I get is a "you have no offers" message - is this because I'm new to it?

I can guess it'll be gold chocolate coins...

@sansandyfrog ding ding ding we have a winner 😅

Sunshineandrainbow · 01/12/2022 17:23

Possibly @meow1989 try again tomorrow.
I have only had the app a few weeks despite shopping in there very often. I just find loyalty cards a faff to find at the till. I am only in it for some stocking fillers. Was surprised when I looked this morning as also had a free bakery item!

HideTheCroissants · 01/12/2022 17:27

Shortbread petticoat tails here. Won’t say no to free shortbread but would have loved the gin 😁

Mrsuntidy · 01/12/2022 17:45

Bucks fizz. 🙂

user143677433 · 01/12/2022 17:58

Would it be wrong of me to get DH and both DS’s to also sign up? 😁

My mil has a sparks card, but not a smartphone. Can you get the offer without the app?

I had an email with my offer link on today.

I have a feeling those who sign up today are all getting the coins... and the ones who spend a lot are getting the booze!!

mum2jakie · 01/12/2022 18:45

My husband spends loads and he got the chocolate footballs too. Although he also has a £10 off offer showing under his offers with no minimum spend so that's worth having!

Roominmyhouse · 01/12/2022 18:57

I got hand cream. Just set a reminder in my calendar to check every day to see what else I’ll get. Just need to find time to hit M&S to collect!

nzborn · 01/12/2022 19:10

Ditto

torthecatlady · 01/12/2022 19:50

Hand cream here!

Kapalika · 01/12/2022 20:22

Percy pig Christmas lights.

Grotbag81 · 01/12/2022 21:00

Anotherdayanothernight I got the sugarplum gin too, it was a lovely surprise. M&S are on top form this year! 💐

Grotbag81 · 01/12/2022 21:03

sandyfrog I'm as reduced shopping queen so not a big spender, but I do give in here and there the chicken liver pate is delicious and choc chip shortbread.

My friend works at m and s and said different ppl get different treats on on different days so fingers crossed

NameChangeLifeChange · 01/12/2022 21:05

Can I ask- Is every day a treat- like chocolate or hand cream etc or is it sometimes 20% off knitwear or whatever?

Thindog · 01/12/2022 21:09

I got the sugar plum gin too, made my day!

NoDairyNoProblem · 01/12/2022 21:50

I’m not convinced it’s spend related. I spend £75/80 a week in the foodhall alone, nevermind the shop itself. I got Percy pig sweets!

Ok everyone, learn from my mistake!!

DH just kindly directed me to the part of the banking app that shows what I have spent in M&S 🫣. I smugly pointed to the £63 for this month, he reminded me it’s the 1st and I had spent £478 in November. Don’t go there!
