Do I win the prize for the worst freebie ever on sparks card?

[OchonAgusOchonOh]

Just opened the M&S app and saw the little 1 beside Sparks.

Oh goodie. Will it be free chocolate or percy pigs? Or even 20% off women's clothes?

Nope. It was:

Drum roll.

A free paper bag!!!! Be still my beating heart, I can't contain my excitement.

So, aibu in thinking I have just received the worst ever freebie or can you beat that?

So funny! You’ve cheered me up no end this evening! 😂

🤣🤣

Yes, but you like others have clearly had plenty of other bits, bag may be crap, yes.

Maybe it’s your 1st Anniversary with M&S?

Thank you. That's my thought too.

We'll be divorced before the 2nd anniversary if they keep this up.

I wouldn't say plenty and it's generally crap I don't want.

But yes, I take your point. You want crap just as much as the rest of us.

They're just tempering your expectations in time for the Sparks Advent Calendar - what will be the new Gary Barlow of 2023??

Tbf at least when you get the Sparks or Nectar or Lidl or Boots offers you can just click the box and they're there for the next week if you happen to use them.

Co-op and Waitrose make you pick only two out of a selection of offers, which is annoying enough if you have to open the app at the toll to work out which one you want to pick, but is bloody infuriating if you share a loyalty card with your spouse but only one of you has the app. Nobody has time to have the "are you going to want crisps or chocolate the next time you nip out to the coop for lunch?" conversation - let alone remember the answer they gave and stick to it in three days time. Yes I know it's trivial, but it does annoy me.

But you might get a nice set of cotton … sheets? hankies? knickers?

Maybe we could have a bag party and all meet up to dance around our bags ala 1980's discos.

5% off sausages when you spend £60 on prepacked sandwiches.
ok that’s not entirely true, but that’s the kind of sh*t I seem to get from them.

Lucky you!!! They tried (unsuccessfully) to charge me 40p for one of those bags last week. (I declined.)

Hmm. Good point.

Oh wow. I didn't realise how valuable it was.

I got the free pastry as above 🥐

I just checked mine and also got the paper bag 🤣

Yeah. That was bad.

I guess it can only go up from here.

Are you on for the 1980's dancing around the bags too?

I got all my shopping free once, about 3 years ago. £30 worth.

Where in the app can you find if you’ve got anything free please?

@OchonAgusOchonOh yes count me in 😂

That's impressive.

I love that there are Terms and Conditions associated with claiming the free paper bag.

Excellent. 💃💃💃👜👜💃💃💃
