I think Zoe highlighted these Advent calendars are a massive rip off in general.
I bought a fancy one a few years ago, the Yankee Candle one. Before I realized they are shite. Looked pretty but what an absolute joke of a calendar!!
It was sooo expensive. But I wanted to jump on the fancy calendar bandwagon as I'd never had one. and it all seemed fun. Wish I'd put more research in before buying but I didn't want to ruin the surprise.
I basically could not keep it in the room once I'd taken the plastic off. It smelt VILE and so strong. I can only describe it as a gone off grapefruit mixed with fire ash. It was rank. It smelt so bad.
I ended up storing it inside an empty chest of drawers to contain it.
I wanted to still do it so I unleashed it every morning and began to open it and realized it was just plastic little tealights. every day.
Plus they were a tiny handful of scents on repeat, like 3 or 5.
I literally spent a fortune on that thing!
none of them had the name written on them, it was written only on the back of the calender in tiny letters and there were two whites. so good luck sorting that out. they all smelt almost identical, as the gone off grapefruit scent had overpowered them all! It was the saddest thing, I couldn't bear the scent anymore by day 5 so I ripped it all open and put all of them in a bag and sealed it and left it at a charity shop. I kept the one tiny candle from xmas eve.
Serious waste of money. While I was disappointed, I learnt a good lesson, don't buy expensive calenders instead either make your own or just use the money to buy actual big candles you will love!
They are in the spirit only of ripping people off.
I hope nobody watches her openings, she doesn't deserve an audience after what she did to her fans. She is SO brass necked to carry on regardless, even after Jack's video!! Goes to show these people are hard as nails. Ruthless in business while being all fake smiles.
If she had opened my calender (maybe she did? idk how long shes been going) she'd have lied thru her teeth and said how amazing it was and how great they smell, I'd be like nope, burn it with fire
Can't trust 'em!
