What advent calendar do you have?

[Gembo]

I’ve got Lindt! I usually have some kind of Disney Princess type calendar because shut up that’s why I’m still a kid when it comes to chocolate. We left it too late this year though and they were sold out but somehow managed to get the Lindt one which makes me feel rather grown up this year!

I used to slide my brothers out of the packaging and eat the ones for later in the month. He’d get to like the 17th December and start screaming blue murder

I don’t have one. Two factors play a part: 1) I’m not 5 and 2) those piddly little chocolates wouldn’t touch the sides and I’d rather spend a pound on a nice big bar of chocolate

ETA: a third factor. I’m also not an instacunt who is kindly gifted three hundred quid advent calendars stuffed with better stuff, like alcohol.

So glad my advent calendar loving five year old self hasn't learned the art of being offended yet.

I decided to make one this year as I've always wanted a reusable calendar, but they're so expensive!
I got some fudge and caramel chocolates from M&S which just fit in them.

Erm yeah, your right. Tattle is full of snowflakes who may get upset about their advent calendars.
You do know this isn’t mumsnet right?

I didn't realise sarcasm could get so lost...

No advent calendar or sense of humour, tragic.

I bought myself a Jo Malone one , never treat myself but given I can’t socialise like I normally would at Christmas figured I would treat myself and smell nice

Everyone else has a Thornton’s personalised one with their name (3 for 2 and free personalisation )

I have a where's wally one this year. Each year my parents buy me an advent calendar (I am 27) .

This is probably an unpopular opinion but sometimes I will save up a few days so I can eat a few more chocolates in one go

 

[SkinnyTurkeyDinosaur]

I'm so bad I always end up eating it all in the one day I'm really going to try not to this year but I say that every year

Update - I ate it all already

 

[Cocoflowers]

Got a dairy milk one this year cant beat chocolate

 

[Pixipoppy]

I don’t have one because I do the same thing literally every single year

Early November - sees some nice advent calendars but decides it’s too early to buy one, I’ll get one later.
*forgets to get one later*

December 1st - they’ve all sold out

I usually end up getting one randomly in the middle of December and eating the whole thing.

I’ve got a Nespresso one, day 1 had my favourite pod so I am assuming it’s downhill from here

 

[marlaxo]

I have dairy milk one and a thorntons one (one was posed to us from an aunty!)

My little boy has the lego city one, which means I am building lego at 6.30am every morning til boxing day now.

 

[If i told you …]

Hotel chocolate mega one. Lucky girl

 

[JLXRD]

Just that really, what calendar have you got? Is it chocolate or a fancy one?

Also feel free to comment saying you haven’t got one cos you’re a responsible adult

I still get one every year, nothing better than chocolate for breakfast! I have Lindt and husband has galaxy.

A colleague of mine just posted her husband got her the Jo Malone one which is £320... lucky lady!

Dairy milk one for my 5yo, dairy milk whole nut one for me and a catnip one for the cat!

 

[malolo]

I've got a homemade one. It's a sack full of twenty four things and it's a lucky dip every day, although some tactical feeling can sometimes come into it.

 

[malolo]

Hahaha I’m not offended, more too tight fisted

I wasn't meaning you'd be offended. What you said could have easily offended everyone in this thread though (if we weren't too busy enjoying our advent calendars and watching PAW Patrol).

I have the Naked Marshmallow Company one!
Today's marshmallow was Cookies n Creme. SO NICE!
Didn't manage to get the little toaster with it so melted it over the hob

 

[watermelon sugar]
