Do you still get offers with your Sparks card?

I’ve been checking but it’s a long time since I’ve had any M&S offers (not this month when it’s my birthday)
Do they not do them anymore?

I've had a Sparks card since around 2016, only really started using/looking at the Sparks offers in the last several months

It all felt a pain having to look, then add the offers etc

Have to admit I don't really know what the point of the card is, it doesn't seem to add the points to give you a voucher like Tesco or Nectar card...

The Christmas advent thing was v exciting as it was the first time I'd done it and the free snow globe gin at the start was massively exciting!Grin

Although that seems to have been the peak!Hmm

Tallulasdancingshoes · 15/02/2023 21:21

I’ve got 7 at the moment. Things like food and flowers, plus a car competition, theatre offer and cinema offer. I also had the free loaf and 20% off all clothing last week too. I used that one bought some new lightweight sweatshirts for spring, socks and knickers.

PoorMrsNorris · 16/02/2023 04:07

Free packet of 6 pink lady apples this week,
Free Swiss chocolate last week, had that one for a while,
Lots of food %off ones that I rarely use too.

But nothing good in December at all.

SoLongFurlough · 16/02/2023 08:03

Hardly any offers on mine since before Christmas except for small discounts on food which I very rarely buy from there.
I am a regular buyer of clothes and shoes but I'm beginning to wonder if they still want my custom really. 🤔

Exactly how I feel!

Free loaf
9 offers Inc some competitions but discounts on bras, bedding, tops, chocolate etc

Seems normal to me, didn't get much in jan but then it's the sales so they don't tend to do both

RebeccaCloud9 · 16/02/2023 08:48

I get 5-7 new ones every couple of weeks or so. Mostly 50p - £1 off various food items. I try and use most of the offers so maybe that's why I keep getting new ones. I also get clothing ones, 15-20% off specific product ranges eg kids socks and tights or women's pants. Just checked and I've got 9 current offers.

purser25 · 16/02/2023 09:07

Loaf of bread and 20% of home beauty and clothing

RedRiverShore3 · 16/02/2023 09:34

I just looked and I have 15% off autograph and bedding, 20% off cushions and throws but I want shoes. <stamps feet>

RedRiverShore3 · 16/02/2023 09:53

Maybe I shouldn't moan, I just got a free bag of cookies, doughnuts or shortbread, very nice too.

Well, who'd have thought.
I've just a few minutes ago, received an email from Sparks offering discounts on dresses, vests and tights which I never buy as I don't wear them. But 15% off bras, which I don't need at the moment.
At least they haven't forgotten me. I feel better now.😀

lornmower · 16/02/2023 16:04

Yes

GandTtwice · 16/02/2023 16:25

I've just had my offers today - slippers, socks, knickers and camisoles. All of which I have bought over the past couple of months and therefore am clearly unlikely to buy again for a while. This isn't the first time this has happened
M&S why not try and encourage me to buy something different to what I've just bought?

I rarely use the offers as they never coincide with the things I need to buy. As pp I just like the charity donation aspect.

The sparks offers really needs an overhaul - better to offer a generic money off anything than the specific ones they do now.

GlassBunion · 16/02/2023 18:29

No offers for a long time. Only things like a percentage off bedding or other stuff that I don't want.
Never any offers off things that I do w

GlassBunion · 16/02/2023 18:29

Want

Essexgirlupnorth · 16/02/2023 18:38

Got some free Percy pigs today. Have had a lot of offers on food to go stuff lately but as I mainly buy lunch in the simply food at work that isn't surprising.
Mainly get offers for bras and kids clothes

I've not had much of use for a while. My partner got 20% off men's clothes recently, which was well timed. I'll also sign DS up when he's old enough, and check them all if we need anything 😄.

TerfIngOnTheBeach · 16/02/2023 21:16

I’ve got logged in and there’s a pack of white grapes waiting for me.

MrsCarson · 17/02/2023 18:38

I just went to see what new I have lots of new offers. Shoes, Lingerie, tights and socks, beauty, tops and tees. They must be listening.

DuckBushCityLimit · 09/03/2023 08:05

Just wondering if those who were lacking offers since Christmas have had any appear in the last few weeks? I haven't had anything at all. I even tweeted them a couple of weeks ago to complain and they said they'd look into it but still nothing. I really don't know why I'm still bothering to scan the stupid thing. Why have you blacklisted me, M&S?!

reluctantbrit · 09/03/2023 08:26

I am back to really random offers but nothing free since the Percy Pigs on the 1st December.

But I don't shop with them outside underwear, pyjamas and emergency food items.

FlySwimmer · 09/03/2023 08:28

I haven’t had any offers for clothes etc since the start of February. At the moment it’s all random food items (15% off veg for instance) and offers for zoo days out. I imagine as they have a mid-season sale on at the moment, clothes offers may not appear until that’s over?

AreMyDucksinarow · 09/03/2023 08:29

Just check mine I have the outdoor cinema offer and a zoo offer 🤷‍♀️

I never get free stuff 🤦‍♀️ or decent offers at M&S even my Christmas ones were shit

Shopaholic100 · 09/03/2023 09:03

30% of zoo visits and 25% off outdoor cinema are my offers. Neither are of any use to me. I was expecting more M & S store offers, based on my buying habits. I’ve not been impressed so far.
