what's happened to M&S Sparks offers?

Last year was getting new offers fairly regularly, OK so they were often random like 10% off bras or 50p off cider cans or something, but did get a few I made use of. I don't do a main shop in M&S but do shop there quite a bit to pick up treats and "nice things" as DH calls them, also buy jeans, underwear etc from there always.

I haven’t had any offers for ages except for an occasional crappy competition thing

Bjorkdidit · 02/04/2024 15:53

I've got a few food ones at the moment that I'll probably use most of. We also got a free loaf of bread a couple of weeks ago.

TheFlis · 02/04/2024 15:54

I have had quite a few recently, 15% or 20% off socks / tops / jeans / footwear, plus lots of different food offers (e.g. 50p off salads). I also had a free bag of Percy pigs but forgot to claim it before it expired.

15% or 10% off certain things.

I've also had a free pack of conference pears and a loaf of farmhouse bread in the last month.

BandyMcBandface · 02/04/2024 15:55

I’ve just checked again and I do have an offer!

10% off at M&S at Moto. I almost never drive anywhere on motorways and don’t even know where my nearest Moto is!

Just checked and I’ve got a free bag of Percy Pigs!

I never look at the app because I have saved the card into my Apple Pay, just looked and there are several, I have been missing out.

EmilyGilmoreenergy · 02/04/2024 16:06

I never get offers but shop there a lot and my daughter who rarely shops there gets loads, I have to use her card it's very bizarre.

RobinBobbin · 02/04/2024 16:09

I had free Percys a few weeks ago and several food and clothing offers. Then nothing until yesterday when I have a few food offers. It's hit and miss.

VanellopeVonSchweetz99 · 02/04/2024 17:21

It's ridiculously hit and miss. Got a bunch of free bananas the other day though.

Andthereyougo · 02/04/2024 17:31

I’ve got 10% off salads. Ok
10% off tea, coffee, ok
10% off meat and fish. Vegetarian.
50p off £3 or more cheese. Ok
10% off mixer and soft drinks. Won’t use that.

Bit boring. And no freebies ☹️

ThinkingAgainAndAgain · 02/04/2024 17:35

I barely ever get anything, but I put this down to buying a lot of my food shop in there. Friends who rarely go seem to get way more. That said, I have a free pack of Percy pigs waiting.

icebearforpresident · 02/04/2024 18:01

I currently have 5, all food offers which would be great if I had an M&S within 25 miles of me and could use them within 12 days. Often have some discount on women’s or kids underwear as well which at least I can use online.

I used the discount code of days out last year, used it to get money off entry for Blackpool sea life. Once I activated that I didn’t any other offers for the rest of the year (apart from the 12 days of Xmas ones)

I have yet to get a free bag of Percy Pigs 😠

I can see the logic in this - why bother giving Misthios any offers as she'll be in there buying the yellow sticker bargains, bread and milk anyway.

I had a free large bar of their Swiss chocolate last week, a free loaf of bread the week before. Current offers are all ones I will probably use, so 40p off a bag of apples, 50p of a quiche (love their quiches!) I will pop in tomorrow when im
in town.

Notmynamerightnow · 15/09/2024 00:13

I get so fed up of having to actually add the offers. Fgs M&S just put them on my card and email me. I
I've got 20% off jeans at the moment, which would be handy only I'm skint! But usually there is a minimum spend to get the offers, I've got 10% off chocolate, but have to spend £6, which isn't going to happen.

I thought things were looking up for me when I got a freebie food item in January and another in February, but there’s been absolutely nothing since then. Just small discounts off stuff I never/rarely buy at M&S. I’ve thought about not scanning my Sparks card for a while to see if they send me anything better, but then I’d be missing out on the chance to win a free shop. I hate Sparks, it’s the absolute worst loyalty card I own. Nectar is a million times better.
