M&S Sparks 12 Days of Christmas

Anyone fancy a Sparks 12 Days of Christmas thread?

I'm waiting up till midnight to see what my first offering is. There are the usual suspects on the advertising image (percy pigs, looks like a hand cream, wine etc) There are some canny prizes up for grabs by the looks of things, but there are sure to be some duds as well!

Here we go. I'll show you mine, you show me yours!!

Same for me with M&S, 20% of gloves/scarves in John Lewis, struggling to load/open anything from Boots?

Snap!

Someaddedsugar · 03/12/2023 07:32

Snap with nightwear and gloves. My Boots app crashes my phone and is stuck on day 2 so no idea what day 3 is!

Have you noticed with the JL 20% gloved that it ends today? Similarly, my sofa bed discount yesterday has expired already. Good job I didn't get myself all excited and plan a new sofa bed.

20% off nightwear for me too. May use it to get Dd some PJs for Christmas though tbh mine have outgrown the Christmas PJs tradition. I’ve also noticed how much the prices have increased since last year. Cheapest sets are now £15. And also, why are their men’s so much more expensive?

Snowplop · 03/12/2023 07:58

M&S Nightwear and JL Gloves for me too. No dashing into town for me today.

thedementedelf · 03/12/2023 08:04

I've had 20% off gift wrap, 20% of Christmas decor and 20% off Christmas pjs.

Disappointing.

thedementedelf · 03/12/2023 08:06

Boots is worse. I got a chance to go into a prize draw and the second day got a chance to be a points millionaire.

I'm the same - but with my Boots app, for two days running it's only opened day 1 (enter to win holiday) and then my phone becomes completely unresponsive. I can't close the app, turn the phone off. I have to plug it in and it suddenly springs to life so I can close the app....not a gift I want, thanks very much.....

Totalwidlak · 03/12/2023 08:08

We have 3 accounts in house as each have one, all have the same PJs discount.
My friends house has same too, so probably everyone gets same today.

Nottogetapenny · 03/12/2023 08:29

Nightwear and gloves for me too!

CornishGem1975 · 03/12/2023 08:31

Yep 20% off pjs here

CharityShopChic · 03/12/2023 08:32

I bet everyone has the nightwear discount as it's a Sunday and England has weird trading hours which mean restricted opening.

OneFrenchEgg · 03/12/2023 08:44

Just found the boots one, but only has two days

Dee1224 · 03/12/2023 08:56

The Boots app has gone faulty- my phone completely froze yesterday for quite some time - I couldn’t even switch it off! The same thing is happening today, so I think I will avoid the boots a/c until if/when they fix it!

Re: JL I find it hilarious that a) yesterday’s the offer was 20% off sofa beds and b) that it ended the same day!

JL number crunchers are probably scratching their heads wondering why there was so little take up🤣

APurpleSquirrel · 03/12/2023 09:09

20% off nightwear which was actually useful - bought the Hedwig Onesie for my daughter. Glad I waited as it was £16 with the discount.

CheesyChipsOnWembleyWay · 03/12/2023 09:10

I was going to ask if the boots app had improved as it used to be unusable but clearly not!

20% off nightwear today M&S and off gloves at JL - at least the JL one can be used online today. Our nearest is the Trafford centre and there is no way I'm going anywhere near there in the run up to Christmas

Trees6 · 03/12/2023 09:11

Boots one doesn’t have day 3 and is freezing my phone. As PPs said.

APurpleSquirrel · 03/12/2023 09:12

Haven't been able to get the Boots one to work for me at all on the app - standard tbh.
Gloves for JL too.

Glad it's not just me!

MeinKraft · 03/12/2023 09:12

Yet another discount code 20% off nightwear. Third discount code in a row.

Justhereforthechristmasthreads · 03/12/2023 09:12

Boots new doors tend to appear about 10am

MeinKraft · 03/12/2023 09:15

Boots was crap today, the chance to enter a competition and then it froze my phone.

Yes, at least with the M&S ones they last a good few days and I can do an order all at once if I want. Who is going to suddenly buy a sofabed in a day, it's hardly a cheap impulse buy.

Doubleraspberry · 03/12/2023 09:30

Exact same with Boots app here.

My expired JL discount wasn’t on soda beds! What are you all on about? It was Christmas homeware stuff, similar to the M&S one.

I struggle with M&S nightwear now as they have largely abandoned natural fibres in favour of horrible fleece and polyester teddy bear stuff. I got a lovely pair of cotton flannel PJs in Primark though.

WimbyAce · 03/12/2023 09:47

Morrisons is actually decent so far which surprises me as I have so many issues with them. So far got points, £1 off cards and free candy canes.
