What advent calendar do you have?

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.

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.

I have one from FM fragrances! It’s 23 little tester bottles with a full sized bottle for Christmas Eve! I’m so chuffed with it x

My partner has got me the Lego Harry Potter calendar. I don’t eat the chocolate ones, I’m a adult so I can have chocolate literally whenever I want, I think that’s why the chocolate ones don’t appeal to me!😂

I have made my partner a calendar, with different things each day that we can do or that I can do.

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 😂)

Dairy milk one for son - but we play a game with it . Treated myself to a W7 beauty one - gold facial glitter for today.

Never heard of those before.

You have the red one, tbf I think that is the fancier real grown up Lindt one. You’re just a bit fancier than coco and I 😉😂

Mine is kind of like, do you want to look kind of like a fancy grown up who eats fancy chocolate but still need your chocolate in novelty shapes every now and then? Then this the calendar for you 😂 on the 24th we get a big chocolate Santa 🎅

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 😂 😂
Oh yes my husband has that. Decided to open every few days as can't be arsed sparking the toaster up every day. I had to buy the toaster as we have an electric hob otherwise I'd be doing the same 😂😂

I have a Ferrero Rocher one. No kids or hubby so spend the money I would have on theirs for an extra nice choc advent calendar 😂

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.
Ha, ha, that is always how my Advent Calendar plans work. 🤣

I’m still stuck in a time warp really. I cannot believe it is December already.

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.
