M&S Sparks card

[SusannaQueen]

Are there no clothing offers with this any more or am I doing something wrong? All I have is £10 off Gary Barlow tickets and some lifestyle discount. Don't even get in-store vouchers for food shops now.
I've been holding off buying a pair of jeans, In the hope of % off.

The offers change monthly I think. I've certainly had random percentage off offers for things like jeans, or knitwear or whatever within the last year. Tends to be limited to a specific type of item, rather than clothing as a whole.

I've also had the odd free time to collect in store, currently can claim a free Percy pig blanket

I've been wondering the same thing. I've also got the Gary Barlow thing and some rubbisb lifestyle offers that I won't use.

I'm a regular customer and have spent a lot over the past few months buying new clothes, the beauty advent calendar, and other items. I'm not sure why there aren't any new offers being added.

Sparks really is the most useless loyalty scheme ever ...

(Boots Advantage Card, on the other hand - barely ever go in there, yet I somehow always seem to have loads of points?!)

I'm a regular customer and haven't had anything for months, bar a free ice lolly in summer, a bag of Percy pigs, Gary Barlow and the rubbish lifestyle discount.
Very envious of a Percy Pig blanket, DD would be all over that!

My two offers are the same as yours OP. I got a 20 percent off anything about three weeks ago and bought a jumper. I knew there were a couple more days to run on it, so went to use it again and it was gone - must have been single use. Oh well. But overall Sparks has been truly awful. I'm not keen on those offers where it's something unrelated to M&S.

It does need an overhaul doesn't it. I used to check it every Thursday when the new offers came out and if there was any that were worthwhile I'd head there. Now I rarely get any offers or none that are of any use anyway.

I used to think 50p off a pack of sausages or and 20p off a cream cake were shitty offers, but being accused of being a Gary Barlow fan is a new low.

I got a free packet of broccoli recently and I have also have Gary Barlow tickets and a lifestyle app offer. Very dull I'd love a Percy pig blanket for my great niece!

Well, I must have a guilded Sparks card 😊. I do shop there once a week for food and buy a few odd bits and bobs from clothing, beauty etc., but in recent memory I’ve had free Percy Pigs; loaves from the bakery x 2 (had some scrumpy cheese bread both times); a £4 hand cream; a £4 box of Belgian chocolate truffles and even got my shopping free one time. I’ve had numerous ‘percentage’ off offers too, currently 10% off clothing, but only valid for another two days. Now I’ve written this all down I’ve probably jinxed my card and condemned myself to a lifetime of Gary Barlow tickets 😂

There used to be money off vouchers but there been nothing of any use since Easter.

I’ve bought clothes fairly regularly all year and all I get is the useless ‘lifestyle’ stuff. The Gary Barlow offer feels like a personal insult

@Luvacuppatea we are all jealous

The 20% etc have mostly disappeared since Covid .

If you make a new account then you get the money off offers.

Mine used to be great but last 6 months have been dire

I have got the dreaded Barlow tickets it an offer for 50p off a TV Times magazine instore. I very much do not want either of those.

I'd contact them if you've not had anything for months. I'v always got food offers and 10/20% off clothes. Just had 20% off kidswear.

Also have the same as @Luvacuppatea in terms of free items, currently a hot drink in the cafe.

I had the wanky summer holidays ones and now, Gary Barlow.

(Sigh) yes, there used to be regular 20% discounts of purchases. Those days seem to have gone now.

Another Gary Barlow here.
I haven't had any Percy pigs for ages.

I had a 15% off clothes today. Just as well as I split my sports leggings

Both DH and I separate cards and we're getting next to nothing in terms of deals. Combine that with the fact we don't like anything in stock we're hardly buying anything from them

It's rather annoying because DH benefits from a subcontractor discount too.

I’ve currently got 20% clothing or beauty (single use), I think the last month or so feels a bit lighter than usual, but I have had a steady stream of useful vouchers/discount all year - 20% off sportswear, jeans, knitwear, kids clothing, I think shoes also, beauty. As well as the in-store 50p of fruit/bread/whatever + the odd free bag of Percy pigs etc.
I do shop in their most weeks for food (not a weekly shop, just bits that we prefer instead of Tesco/Aldi), all the kids uniform in their 20% off, most of my basic underwear, leggings, tops etc. so maybe there’s a “ranking” where the more you use it the more vouchers you get?

This time of year, they usually did a weekend of 20% off if you recall? I'm waiting for this to happen over Black Friday weekend but if it doesn't then they will lose my business. Every other business is doing something for Black Friday!

I have the same lifestyle and Gary Barlow offers. Who do they even think I am!?

Same here, its been like this for months now. Not even any food offers. This weekend they had a special 20 pc off if you took out a credit card or downloaded the app - but I already have both and didn’t get the money off!
