To ask what advent calendar you’re getting?

[MzGG]

I’ve just bought myself a Malteasers Truffle one. What about you?

None

I bought a Kash Beuty one when they were launched in September and have resisited the urge to open it. Not long left to wait now!

We have a permanent wooden one, and buy nice chocolates to eat. One per day!

I've never had one (sob)

My husband buys me the Liberty one every year.

I've bought a simple Cadbury one, a Terry's orange and a biscoff one. I'll let my daughter and her boyfriend pick which they want and I get the leftover one. No more expensive ones for us!!

Reese’s. I’ll forget about it and then have five in one go.

I've got a White Company one.

Probably a cheese one

Milkybar. DD has a Dairy Milk. We alternate days.

I’ve treated myself to Libertys and my DH has bought me one from Bird and Blend.

I don't normally have one, but after an unsuccessful hunt for Biscoff eggs today I treated myself to a Biscoff one today!

I treated myself to a Space NK one, I can’t wait!

I have one for the first time since I was a child because I really wanted a Bonne Maman one. I'm not even home for the first 10 days of December, I told dp and ds that they need to send me a picture of the wee jar every morning while I'm away.

I've bought a Pact coffees Advent box for my in-laws but I'll be giving it to them as a Christmas present. They don't like 'Christmas flavoured' coffees, so the Christmas box is not helpful, and this will give them a variety of 'normal' coffees for several weeks and they love variety.
We have a paper one and a fabric pockets one and I mix the two: e.g. no. 12 from the paper one goes in no. 12 pocket.
I have bought chocolate ones (Lindt?) for my DDs but these will be by their stockings on Christmas morning.
Most people don't want to know but Advent is a season of preparation (similar to Lent but not as intense) and thus not a season of indulgence - that's what the 12 days of Christmas are for :) - bring on those partridges ...

Stitchfinity.
It’s a cross stitch one that I treat myself to every year.
Every day you get a bit more of the pattern to sew. Always Christmas themed. Last year were napkin rings with embroidered napkins. Year before was a really cute little gingerbread house. I love that it makes me give myself some time every day to do something I enjoy.

Yawn coffee beans one ☕

Naked marshmallows

A marshmallow one with different flavours every day , it comes with a little burner and sticks to toast your marshmallow every day .

I don’t get edible ones. This year I got a beautiful 3D German illustrated one based on the Nutcracker. Last year it was a Dutch street scene. Both off Amazon https://amzn.eu/d/3BtncIo

I wish I could get this one: https://www.neuhauschocolates.com/en_GB/shop/sharing-advent-calendar-2025/5026062.html 😂 £160!!!!

I will actually have a homemade one from my daughter with little notes, beauty samples she's stashed and chocolates if last year is anything to go by :)

One I gave as a gift was from Bonne Mamon which was a hit https://amzn.eu/d/ea06EIz

I didn’t know the White Company sold them!

A chocolate orange one.

A few years back, Lidl did cheese ones. I picked one up a few days into December for half the price. It was bloody amazing but they have not done one since.

I bought myself a nice Heidel chocolate one, it's a German brand but there's a few UK stockists. They have proper old-fashioned pictures on the front and the chocolate in shapes I remember like stars, bells, logs, presents, trees, robins etc.

Unlike Cadburys who have resorted to the same simplistic cartoon design since forever and have about four cartoon chocolate shapes..!
