Over time, and if you scan your Sparks time every time you shop, you’ll be rewarded with different offers that will appear in your account. Simply activate them online, or in the app and scan the bar code in store.
M&S seasonal sales
Whether it’s a dedicated sale or the year-round clearance section, you’ll find thousands of discounted items on the M&S website. Savings span across clothing, beauty and home, and often highlight top brands, including Nobody’s Child, Hobbs, and Mamas & Papas.
M&S is also partial to a bundle deal on clothing. Right now, you can enjoy £20 off when you buy two Charles Tyrwhitt items and three t-shirts for £22 on selected items.
