M&S 12 days of Christmas

I love this each year, today I got a free 75ml hand cream. Which isn’t likely to be as delicious as the florentines I got on day one last year, but you can’t complain about a freebie!

I’m hoping for a knitwear discount one day, I’ve had a cashmere cardi in my basket for weeks.

Who can top free hand cream this morning?! 😁

I got this too.

Perfume yesterday, which I will claim if I ever make it to a store that has them.

Had exactly the same two offers as you. I suspect the perfume will be as good as it gets if last year is anything to go by!

I have just realised the chocolate was just a random freeby and not the 12 days of Christmas!

GrannyAchingsShepherdsHut · 02/12/2023 11:13

30% off homeware, that'll go nicely with the 20% off wrapping I won't use either... Sigh.

I did wonder if I can DSIL some nice bedding for Xmas, but the JL one is probably better for that!!

JulesJules · 02/12/2023 11:37

Free Belgian truffles from M&S today* and money off home stuff at JL

  • Subject to availability - last year I never got the handcream or Xmas decoration as they were out of stock.

Boots are also doing an app advent calendar - entry into prize draw for a million points today

I can’t get this to work.
Had a sparks card for years but only downloaded the app today. Despite deleting it several times to try to get it to work, still no luck. Am I doing something wrong? Is there a knack to it?

Mybestusername · 02/12/2023 13:40

30% off homeware for me

Peridot1 · 02/12/2023 13:45

@Chickoletta - it’s very random but apparently over the course of the twelve days everyone will win some item. Some last year got gin. I got a handcream. Others got a packet of Percy Pigs. Otherwise it’s mostly different discounts every day.

Peridot1 · 02/12/2023 13:46

@Darklane - have you added your Sparks card to the app? The 12 days of M&S should come up. Have you looked in your Sparks offers?

Yes to both of those but I just keep getting this message since 9am & no further.

I got the mascara from JL but unfortunately, my nearest one is three hours away Confused

Peridot1 · 02/12/2023 14:20

@Darklane it sounds like it just needs to catch up with itself as you have only just downloaded the app.

bettynutkins · 02/12/2023 16:57

Free bag of frozen croissants today

Edited

I picked mine up. It's a sample. I'd not travel for it!

EwwSprouts · 02/12/2023 21:35

Another Colin the Caterpillar bits. Will grab them if I can as would be good for DS stocking.

creamcheeseandlox · 02/12/2023 22:49

Went to two local marks and a JL today, nothing in stock anywhere 🙄

MadeOfAllWork · 02/12/2023 22:55

Thanks for the reminder. Free fragrance for me. I never use fragrances.

bakermummy21 · 02/12/2023 23:54

Free mince pies here on day 2

Tinyant · 03/12/2023 00:03

Me as well for day three. I’ll be really surprised if I get something better this month than yesterday’s cake slices (possibly in my top five most delicious M&S food items).

Britpopbaby · 03/12/2023 00:10

The nightmare offer for me too. Missed out on the JL mascara!

Britpopbaby · 03/12/2023 00:12

JL offer is 20% off JL scarves, hats and gloves

KnottyKnitting · 03/12/2023 00:36

I have had discounts on stuff I don't need or want. Having said that I don't shop in Marks much.

I wonder if people who shop there a lot have a better chance of better offers?

GriseldaChop · 03/12/2023 00:39

I got a discount in cards and wrapping up n Friday and a mini panettone on Saturday. Smile
