SPAR saves Christmas!
At SPAR, we’re part of the community -the shop around the corner, the friendly hello, the place you can count on. And we know Christmas can feel like a juggling act. From cooking and hosting to wrapping and last-minute dashes, it’s no wonder so many people find it stressful.*
Every year, the same little things catch people out - batteries, foil, Sellotape, gravy granules, spare milk, that last pack of wrapping paper. Small things, but they matter. They keep the day running smoothly.
Our "Don’t Forget" campaign is here to help you this festive season. Your local SPAR isn't just here to sell you groceries - we’re here to help make Christmas a little easier. We’re here to be the backup plan. The safety net. The “oh thank goodness SPAR is still open” moment.
We want our customers to feel supported, reassured and looked after - especially when the holiday whirlwind hits.
This Christmas, you’ll find thoughtful little reminders around your local store - and even a helpful essentials checklist in your basket. It’s our way of giving you a gentle nudge so nothing gets missed.
Our teams are ready with smiles, suggestions and a bit of festive spirit- some even in Christmas pyjamas if you’re shopping on Christmas Eve or Christmas day. Because that’s what SPAR does – we keep in neighbourly, simple and helpful.
And best of all?
No massive queues, no packed car parks, no stress.
Just your local SPAR, ready when you are with convenient opening hours.
If you’re lucky enough to have Iceland in your local SPAR you’ll be able to take advantage of their fabulously fancy and delicious Christmas range.
