M&S 12 days of treats - rubbish!!

[WilsonMilson]

I see others have had free bottles gin and other delights, and am feeling a bit miffed.

I got a free small hand cream (which they didn’t even have at my local M&S) on the first day, and it’s been utter rubbish every day since - think 15% off women’s rights, 20% off skincare, 15% off a Panettone, £1 off a light up shortbread lantern. Just so disappointing.
Anyone else feeling the same? Does it go by how much you spend in M&S, I spent maybe £800 a year I’d say. Perhaps that not enough to get the good stuff?!

I got free gin so I can't complain.

Same, I spend about £500^ at M&S each month and got free hancream then shot discounts

Not true.

I don't want to say how much but I spend a LOT more than the amount you quote on a weekly basis and I didn't get the gin.

It's pure luck.

Got 20% off sodding socks on the final day - I thought it might be a good one to finish, but just blooming socks. Apparently if you open all days (which I, increasingly disappointingly, have) you get an extra ‘golden reward’, but I’ve not had that yet - surely it wasn’t the sock discount?!

WHERE’S MY GIN?????!!!!

I had similar with pyjamas, but before the twelve days offers. I returned the pair I'd bought in store and re-ordered for click and collect.
I have an issue that I haven't been able to open the app in store to see what offers I have, so missed my loaf of bread!

It seemed like a bit of a swizz to me. And frankly it's made me feel less loyalty to the M&S brand. It's really not the way to repay years of customer loyalty, is it?

I got 20% off bras after I'd bought 3 2 days previously 😁

Order them again on click and collect and taken them back using your original receipt?

I am so disappointed. I deleted the app.

Has anyone had their golden surprise yet? I can't see anything on my app

Nope, all mention of golden reward disappeared from the app.

No golden reward for me, I opened all 12 days, but nothing on the app or the website about it now. What the hell?!

It's a free app that anyone can download. You're not paying for any of this. Why are you complaining?

Because it wasn't advertised if 12 days of discount codes..

No golden treat for me either. Suspect we will all get a lump of coal if anything

I've had nothing other than money off things I didn't want or already had. Haven't had any freebies.

All washed and worn by now so sadly not.

What's the "Golden Treat" we were told would happen today? M&S Sparks is such a waste of time IMO. Very poorly managed.

I've got a free calm body lotion maybe that is the golden reward but I won't be going out of my way to redeem it. What a load of shite a particularly low point was 20% off Stilton . (not envy)

I'm usually up feeding DS2 in the night and would open it daily then, not used one of the offers but have recently bought bedding and kids pyjamas and socks from there so very annoying. My free hand cream from Day 1 has now disappeared and no golden offer thing that they promised either. Very poor form from them. I thought maybe all the crap offers were penance for a decent prize at the end. I also spent £500 on lighting with them a couple of months ago so not like they haven't seen enough of my money this year!

Because some people got great feee stuff like bottles of gin, while the rest of us who spend a clean fortune at M&S got sweet fa!

It's a lucky dip/ pot luck, and you also paid "sweet fa" to participate.

You got a hand cream for nothing and you are still complaining.

If M&S gave out free bottles of gin to everyone who downloaded an app do you think they would still be in business? Don't be ridiculous.

12 days of discounts for me too.

A particular highlight was 10% off kitchen towel... Merry Christmas 🙄

Jeez, no one can take a bit of lighthearted moaning anymore? If it doesn’t bother you, not sure why you need to put your tuppence-worth in.
Of course it’s hardly the end of the world, but they hyped it to the max and led people to believe there would be freebies, when in fact it was small % off random things that most people don’t seem to want.
It also doesn’t feel fair that some people randomly get better free gifts than others.

As for the hand cream, I did not in fact get it as it has never been in stock. So I did, actually, get sweet fa!

And no promised golden reward so far.

Just looked on the app and my golden reward is 30% off Christmas decs 🙄 not very useful when they all went up 2 weeks ago and most places are discounting their stock at this point in the month anyway. Feels a bit disingenuous. Won't be bothering with it all next year!

The golden award shows where your normal sparks discounts appear
Mines there my mums isn't
It's crap anyway 😂
