Are there no clothing offers with this any more or am I doing something wrong? All I have is £10 off Gary Barlow tickets Grin 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.

@campion

I think the secret is to not spend very much there and use the card less then they'll want to get you back with loads of offers.

Anyway, that's my theory for still having Gary Barlow and nothing else for weeks.
Who is he, by the way?Wink

I have hardly shopped in M&S for about a year and I used to shop regularly when emails dropped into my mailbox offering 20% Sparks discount. They haven’t made any effort to lure me back! We

New advent calendar scheme and Gary Barlow tickets are one of the prizes.

Downloaded the app for the advent calendar thingy and clicked on “open today’s door”.

It’s still bloody Gary Barlow, like an unwanted, demonic elf on the shelf.

Utter rubbish.

I have an invitation to a virtual baking event. I need to provide all my own ingredients to take part.

Kiitos · 01/12/2021 07:50

Sparks was shite years ago too so I stopped using it. I would offers get offers like ‘but 5 packs of vegetables get one free’. I know all these schemes are just thinly disguised market research but they should have been able to tell from my shopping habits that I wasn’t shopping for enough people that I would need that many vegetables 😒

Poor old Gary. The only way he can get anyone to come and see him is if it's at a reduced rate or a freebie!

APurpleSquirrel · 01/12/2021 11:39

I've got the app but the advent calendar isn't even showing in it. Tried going through a link in an email but still not showing.

Bokky · 01/12/2021 12:07

I've logged on again and the advent calendar is now working properly. I got 25% off cards and gift wrap.

helloitsme3 · 01/12/2021 12:10

I got 20% off a Percy Pig tin.

ScouseQueen · 01/12/2021 12:13

I can't see this bloody advent calendar thing. Do I have to log out of the app and back in? Hmm

Plantsandpuddlesuits · 01/12/2021 12:15

I got 20percent off the light up gin so really pleased with that as was debating trying it but didn't want to spend £20 if I didn't like it but it should be £16 I think now which is better

ScouseQueen · 01/12/2021 12:21

Just looked on Twitter and can see other people saying they can't see the advent calendar - the reply is that there's been a slight delay launching and to check again later today. It is obviously working for some people as per the posts here! Bit annoying but I'll check again in a while.

ColinKnocksTwoPence · 01/12/2021 12:22

Just logged onto the Advent calendar thingy and have 25% off a tin of Belgian chocolate biscuit tin.
Might pop in this afternoon for that!

mum2jakie · 01/12/2021 12:30

I got 25% off Belgian biscuits too

mnp321 · 01/12/2021 12:36

No offers but Gary for me either. I did buy a few bits in the M&S in Marylebone station a couple of months ago and got my shopping for free.

ParkheadParadise · 01/12/2021 12:38

I've got the 25% off Belgian biscuits

Best of all Gary has disappeared 🥳
🥳🥳🥳🥳
I'm also invited to the launch of the new M&S foothall local to me with a chance to win a £200 voucher.

AnnieSnap · 01/12/2021 12:43

I’m not interested in Gary Barlow, Belgian Chocolates or Peppa Pig. Can someone give me a heads-up if there is a discount on clothes or accessories? I won’t hold my breath.

DontTellThemYourNamePike · 01/12/2021 12:49

Day 1 of my virtual Advent calendar - 20% off light up Snow Globe liqueur. Sigh ...

Wine or gin, then we might be on to something. Doesn't even need to light up. I'm not a bit fussyGrin

chalkyc2 · 01/12/2021 12:51

20% off M&S Stilton?????

Wtf. Where are my biscuits?

APurpleSquirrel · 01/12/2021 12:56

25% of gift wrap & Christmas cards for me. Still got Gary though Angry

MrsHookey · 01/12/2021 13:09

@AnnieSnap I got 20% off clothes. No peppa pig tins for me. Gary Barlow lives on though. Gary Barlow forever!

JustGotToKeepOnKeepingOn · 01/12/2021 13:15

I got 25% off wrapping paper. Frankly I'm worth more Grin I want biscuits, wine and clothes discounts please. Wink

Fairyliz · 01/12/2021 13:15

Day 1 of the advent calendar and I get an invitation to a baking event not even any money off anything. They must know from my age I have been baking for over 50 years why would I want this?
Sparks has been rubbish for years, I think I will delete the app and save my phone battery.

Purpleblondelady · 01/12/2021 13:20

25% off a tin of Belgium biscuits for me too on the advent calendar today. I have an offer for the cookery lesson but it wasn't part of the advent calendar
