Wher can I get reasonably priced advent calendars that I can fill with trinkets and use again next year? Like felt or wooden ones. Ideas anyone?

I got one in ALdi this week for £7. Quite nice red and green felt with Santa on the front.

Not sure if you have a Butlers shop near you but they do some fab ones. Wooden Christmas tree which is made up of a load of drawers to put small presents in.

I've just bought this one, and it is beautiful. It comes with little gifts for the pockets to put on the tree, but each pocket is also big enough for another small sweet or something. I'll put the odd choc in, but mostly the pockets will have a promise in like 'Daddy will play trains' or 'Help Mummy bake biscuits' etc.
