I have a hand dyed yarn one on order for this year, the fibre for spinning one sounds awesome!

For all of you tempted by Amazon's calendar that goes on sale for £50 tomorrow please hold off. I got one in the week after black Friday for £30 just for prime members. The Amazon one was fab last year. I got a really nice English Laundry perfume that was worth at least the price I paid for the calendar.

Zoella's one for £50 that could be replicated in Poundland for about a tenner. The only good thing about it was Jaackmaate's review which is one of the funniest videos on YouTube.

Interested in this thread?

I bought the Zoella calendar for dd and emailed them to complain about the quality before we opened it as saw it on the news. They said they were adjusting the price. So they refunded the price difference and gave me 1000 points so couldn't complain. Fwiw dd liked it but it wasn't worth the cheaper price. My local store had loads of them very reduced way into January.

Where are people getting their yarn advent calendars from??

ProfessorMoody · 30/09/2018 20:00

There are loads on Etsy!

Mine is from a seller called Cuddlebums, I love her yarn :-)

Does anyone have a picture of a yarn calendar? Sounds like something my sils would like.

Because nothing quite sums up the spirit of Christ's birth like a set of dildos.

This has proper made me LOL, very loudly. Woke the dog. He was not impressed.

@CheddarIsNotTheOnlyCheese do you have a link to the Amazon one by any chance please? I'm in Australia and Amazon isn't huge here, so I'm not overly familiar. When I search for advent calendars loads of different brands come up. Is there a specific brand?

I’ve preordered DD a marshmallow one. She will love it as marshmallows are her favourite food. Grin

CheddarIsNotTheOnlyCheese · 01/10/2018 12:10

It's this one www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B07GL7NKSW/?tag=mumsnetforum-21
Not sure about oz availability though.

SargeantAngua · 01/10/2018 12:17

Thanks ProfessorMoody and SocksRock I'll take a look Smile
