So today I was at a friends home. She got a delivery whilst I was there and opened it, it was her family’s advent calendars, they looked really lovely so I had a little google when I got home.
The children’s advent calendars were £50! The children are only 3 and 4 and it’s not as those these are insanely fancy people, they live in a normal town, their oldest is only in a private school as that is where my friend works and gets a hefty discount.
AIBU to think £50 on a chocolate advent calendar is beyond bonkers, it doesn’t seem particularly special and I know my kids would prefer dairy milk or milky bar chocolate anyway. I really don’t understand the point.
I get that people sometimes spend a lot on other types of advent calendars which to me makes more sense but this is just a chocolate advent calendar! It’s over £2 per piece of chocolate at that price!
