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!!

A boring start. 20% off cards and wrap too.
Fingers crossed for gin tomorrow 🎅

WinchSparkle80 · 01/12/2023 07:07

20% off wrapping paper and cards, awesome 🤩 except already bought…..……thanks M&S.

I await with anticipation on tomorrow’s offerings

8misskitty8 · 01/12/2023 07:07

20% of wrapping paper.

last year my free gift was the hand cream that the M&S near me didn’t stock !
Hoping for better this year.

Another with 20% off cards and wrap. The small print does say every Sparks member will get a prize so hopefully those of us without them today will get ours another day 🤞🏻.

I also got the CT mascara sample with John Lewis, and 4 for 2 on green sticker gifts at Boots today between 10 and 4.

FredaFox · 01/12/2023 07:12

20% off wrap but my mum got a free room spray!

I would love to know if they do actually use an algorithm related to your spending. I spend quite a bit there and didn't get anything like prosecco or gin last year. Mind. I've just had free Percy Pigs and chocolate on November.

Similarly, I spend a lot at Sainsbury's (have £150 in Nectar points and didn't get offered double up and don't get sent vouchers)

Agree that JL is a blatant rip off. I also got CT mascara. Just bloody been into the city, too. Won't be going back in till next week now.

100ml room spray - pleased with that!
Mini mascara from John Lewis.

christmasdodedodedo · 01/12/2023 07:17

Can you accumulate them and collect in one go?

TokyoSushi · 01/12/2023 07:20

20% off wrap here too

ACAC2023 · 01/12/2023 07:22

I got the cards and giftwrap

chimichangaz · 01/12/2023 07:24

Glad I found this thread although so far my 'gifts' have mostly been underwhelming....

20% off cards and wrap M&S
Mini charlotte tilbury mascara JL (quite pleased with that)
Boots 4 for 2 on green sticker - but it's today only, 10-4. Can't manage that.

Q on the JL one - does it have to be redeemed today? Wasn't clear from the app, just said 12 hours from activation but then there was another button to press 'use in store'?

Gowlbag · 01/12/2023 07:24

My door won’t open! What am I doing wrong? Is it definitely working in Ireland?

FredaFox · 01/12/2023 07:24

100ml room spray - pleased with that!
Mini mascara from John Lewis.

I got the same as you!

OldTinHat · 01/12/2023 07:24

Yay! Here's the right thread, I accidentally posted on the zombie!

20% off cards and wrap for me, too. And I've already wrapped and written. I hope tomorrow is better!

Cluckycluck · 01/12/2023 07:25

Free decoration here!

I'm in Ireland and my door opened fine. 20% off wrapping paper etcHmm

WimbyAce · 01/12/2023 07:29

20% off wrap too.

Note there is also a Lidl and Morrisons one.

user1486915549 · 01/12/2023 07:32

Hand cream. Hope they stock it

I got a free loaf of bread today! I'll probably pick it up but not the vibe I was after!

Nothing quite says Christmas like a loaf of bread 🤣
I got 30ml fragrance but dont know if I will get there in time to collect it!

Gazelda · 01/12/2023 07:34

20% off wrap. But my expectations weren't high - you lot all got gin on Day 1 last year and I got something rubbish like 5% off a Percy pig (can't remember exactly what, but I strongly recall the disappointment).

PatChaunceysFruitCake · 01/12/2023 07:35

Alphabet decoration. Always surprised when they do something personalised, the chances of it being in stock in a relevant initial seems low!

Mini mascara from John Lewis. Going to JL on Monday so looking forward to collecting that.

ACAC2023 · 01/12/2023 07:35

What’s the John Lewis one? Is it a Calendar or is it a free thing?

SomeFiggyPudding · 01/12/2023 07:36

I got a free net of chocolate coins. Probably the most exciting thing I’ll receive 😆

Dee1224 · 01/12/2023 07:36

Hi, I can’t access the Boots one - my screen just says coming soon. What am I doing wrong?

ACAC2023 · 01/12/2023 07:37

I don’t have Boots either
