I get very little either. In fact, since I started visiting M&S again the number of offers has gone right down, and when I have had offers for things like the bags and hand cream, they’ve always been out of stock ☹ Sparks is probably one of the worst loyalty schemes - you either seem to get nothing at all or discounts on stuff you’ve literally just bought. ‘We noticed you bought a skirt last week, here’s 20% off skirts’ 🤬
I said on a previous thread that they always do that. I had spent well over £100 on clothes and a couple of weeks later I get 20% off the linen clothes I had just worn once.

I've still got that health and wellbeing classes offer too, and as I said on a previous thread, that's what I do for a living. I think it's a bit of a cheek actually! We've had a dreadful year and a half, and every time I open my app to check for offers (no others as yet :mad:...) I get even more irritated by it 🤣
What’s it dependent on? It seems to vary wildly from person to person. I used to get great food hall offers but haven’t had anything worthwhile in months.

I’m sure it’s based on previous purchases but things that haven’t been bought in a while to try and entice you to buy them again
I’ve never bought hand cream but they keep
putting it on my sparks 😂.
Went in today , they didn’t have the burger wreath in the freezer but they had turkeys, a turkey poe which looked lovely ( although I don’t think I’ve eaten a frozen pie 🤔). They had some cranberry and pork stuffing, a beef dish, some Christmas Canapés. In the non frozen aisle there was an abundance of stuff. I bought some Christmas cranberry cookies . Will post a pic later.

No Merry Munch in my Marks today!
Got a slice of triple chocolate cheesecake to help with the disappointment. Pretty nice!
The musical gingerbread tower is adorable.
The Halloween chocolate lollipops are cute but an absolute ripoff ot €2.70 each: how much are they in UK I wonder?

I think they were £1.60 each at my London branch. They don't even have the design stamped into them! Just plain chocolate ovals underneath.

Applying direct conversion that's €1.86.
Fecking robbery to mark them up that far - I'm sure Brexit is the excuse used as usual!

I need the days to pass asap as I'm very intrigued what they will be selling for Xmas. :sneaky:
Any of you got a favourite M&S Xmas food item you buy every year?

Our tradition has always been to get our full Christmas dinner from M&S. except the cocktail sausages because they’re gross. Get those from the local butcher. I love getting the Christmas themed Colin the caterpillar too 😂 sucker for a Colin.
