This Blue Monday, 20th January 2025, SPAR stores across Scotland are transforming the so-called "most depressing day of the year" into a day filled with warmth and smiles. For one day only, Barista Bar stations in selected SPAR stores will offer customers a delightful triple stamps promotion on their loyalty cards.

Every hot drink purchased from Barista Bar on this day only will earn three loyalty stamps instead of the usual one. Whether shoppers are savouring a comforting hot chocolate, indulging in a hazelnut latte, or refreshing with a berry tea, this promotion gives three times the reward for everyone’s favourite beverage.

Even better, Barista Bar makes it extra special with free syrup additions to any hot drink, allowing customers to personalise their brews just the way they like them in SPAR Scotland stores.

"We’re thrilled to launch our Brew Monday promotion with Barista Bar," said Paula Middleton, SPAR Scotland’s Head of Marketing. "Blue Monday has a reputation for being a gloomy day, but we want to turn that around by spreading a little joy and rewarding our loyal hot drink lovers.

"With triple stamps available, there has never been a better time to grab a Barista Bar and brighten up the day."

Barista Bar stations offer a wide variety of drinks to suit every taste, from classic coffees to indulgent lattes and teas.

With over 100 SPAR Scotland stores participating, it is easy for customers to pop into their nearest SPAR and take advantage of this exciting promotion.

“So, don’t let Blue Monday get you down! Head to a SPAR Scotland store, grab a favourite Barista Bar drink, and enjoy triple the rewards while turning the bluest day into a brewtiful one,” adds Middleton.
