I meant off of course. Doh!

Grandmadinosaur Thu 08-Dec-22 07:43:37

20% off ladies trousers for me. Won’t bother with that one. I’d have to order online and wouldn’t trust the sizings.

Jaxjacky Thu 08-Dec-22 07:52:50

20% off bras, I’ll give that a miss thanks.

Lucky! I might have used that. Instead I’ve got 20% of children’s nightwear. Very random😢

It’s a shame that we can’t swap

Sarah74 Thu 08-Dec-22 07:55:17

20% off tights and socks. Don’t know why I’m bothering looking each day now! Ever hopeful!

Grannynannywanny Thu 08-Dec-22 08:32:38

20% off womens tops and tee shirts for me which won’t be used. I’m hoping to see 20% off children’s clothing in the next few days. I’ve got items totally £60 sitting in my online basket for my grandchildren. Knowing my luck the items will become out of stock while I wait in hope for a discount.

20% off tights. I buy mine from Primark and Lidl. My thermal pairs from Lidl have lasted 3 winters and were probably half the M&S price.

Shinamae Thu 08-Dec-22 09:18:12

The initial offer has turned out to be very very misleading 😒

Aveline Thu 08-Dec-22 09:18:49

True

Nannagarra Thu 08-Dec-22 09:29:16

20% off women’s socks.

annsixty Thu 08-Dec-22 10:02:59

20% of women’s vests and camisoles.
So for every offer I have had I have to spend money first.
I haven’t claimed a single reward and only remember to check what it is when I see this thread.

Millie22 Thu 08-Dec-22 11:44:15

I have the vests one too. How disappointing this Sparks thing is.

Keekaboo Thu 08-Dec-22 12:38:06

I am really disappointed with M&S. I spend a lot of money in M&S and all I’ve been offered is chocolate footballs and crisps which my local store don’t have. The rest of the offers so far have been money off items like biscuit tins and Samsung?!
To be honest the normal sparks offers are a whole lot better than this for me.

FannyCornforth Thu 08-Dec-22 13:23:46

That’s true Keekaboo, the normal offers are better.
It’s a really cynical and patronising campaign

FannyCornforth Thu 08-Dec-22 13:26:02

And they’ve only given us the chocolate footballs because it’s over stock from the World Cup, which hasn’t been as zeitgeist-y this time around.
If they hadn’t given them to us , they’d probably go to landfill, or whatever

AreWeThereYet Thu 08-Dec-22 13:35:08

Discount on Jeggings and leggings. Normally quite a good offer for me as I almost live in their jeggings in the Summer, but no use to me in the Winter.

M&S offers always make me laugh - we always get offered discounts off things we have just bought. Don't know why they would think we want to go back and buy more of the same a week later.

well I picked up my bottle of Bucks Fizz for nothing today while in there shopping. Big stack of them by the entrance so looks like it is a popular 'prize'.

I didn't even get those.

You can share mine Callistemon smile
Today’s offering - 15% off tea and coffee 🤷‍♀️

Casdon Fri 09-Dec-22 06:54:20

I’m happy with mine this morning, I got 15% off panettone. I cut out an article from the Guardian a few weeks ago, the M&S nocciolato panettone won their taste award. It’s £15, so I’d been dithering, but I’m going to treat myself today.

Sarah74 Sat 10-Dec-22 10:26:59

20% off skincare today……..

FannyCornforth Sat 10-Dec-22 10:29:06

Me too Sarah
They often seem to have 20% off beauty

Grandmadinosaur Sat 10-Dec-22 19:14:18

Went to pick up some of my offers today. I was amazed that they had actually got the sliced plum gin. I also got the light up shortbread tins and a small potted Christmas tree with lights that had 20% off.

Grandmadinosaur Sat 10-Dec-22 19:14:54

Oh and I haven’t got the chocolate football offer either.

FannyCornforth Sun 11-Dec-22 03:57:47

20% off nightwear today
