On sale as from today. Price has gone up to £215. I wants it but I don't think I can justify the cost - pretty sure last year's was £175 which was steep enough! But but but, it's such fun opening the little drawer every day in the run up to Christmas... sigh.

Oh I so want one, but I won't.

I was a very lucky lady last year as my brother works there and he bought me one, so totally out of the blue. I used every single thing in there and only have a few little bits left.

I absolutely loved the perfume. A snip at £175 for the big bottle I think!ShockGrin! I've got some major changes to my life happening at the moment and when all is done and settled, I've promised myself I'm going to splash out on it!

Awww, what a lovely surprise from your brother, MaureenMLove! The perfume was really lovely last year - loved the one from the year before too (same make). I keep receiving emails from Liberty, reminding me to buy the calendar before it's too late and I also keep seeing adverts for it on facebook. Am holding firm so far but it's HARD!!!

I have had the last 2. Not getting this years as they are too samey. I got the beauty gift in September which looks much better and was much cheaper- free with £175 purchases. It also had a malle perfume in it.

Some on eBay ended up selling for less than they had cost last year- I think the lure has gone.

Interested in this thread?

I agree with Winteriscoming

I bought the gift with purchase this year, which was brilliant. The Liberty calendar just seemed so similar to the previous years so I’ve given it a miss.
I know DP has bought me a calendar but won’t find out until 1 December. 😀

Thanks - you're helping me to hold firm! I'm thinking if I can just hold out a while longer, they'll be sold out anyway. (Or maybe not if we're all standing firm and not buying! )

Exactly the same as @Winteriscomingfast - have had the 2 previous years and they were pretty much identical in terms of products. The box design is always fairly similar too, although beautiful!
I’ve bought the space nk one this year, doesn’t look very festive but there’s a few things in there that I use anyway and quite a few new things I wanted to try. Worked out at pretty good value.

Thanks CakeNinja - like you, I've had the previous two years. Am thinking that I should just buy some nice bits that I actually want and fill up last year's calendar (I kept it as too pretty to throw away!). But then no surprise element...
