Advent calendar for a birthday present??

[mydogishot]

Would you like this?

It's a fully grown birthday at the end of November.

Was thinking Yankee candle calendar.

Good idea?

Yes I'd like that.

I wouldn't like that. To me it suggests birthday is not as important as Christmas.
But it depends entirely on the recipient.

Thanks for replies

Hmm hadn't thought it would feel less important.

I thought it was a bit different and she does like candles.

I know I'd like it but just wanted other opinions!

I'd like it but then I love advent calendars.

Yes, my friend got the M&S one for her birthday yesterday and I'm really jealous!

No I wouldn't like it!

For an adult that you wouldn't give a Christmas present to? Yes.

I would love it. But I really love Yankee candles. Or any candles

My birthday is at the end of November and I often get an advent calendar. As long as it is a bit more 'gifty' than a £2 one from the supermarket I think it's great. I had an M+S one last year.

I would love it. I give my mum one for her november birthday and she loves it as its not something she would buy for herself. I buy her beauty ones.

A few years ago we bought MIL a Boots No 7 Advent Calendar for end of November birthday and she loved it. But we knew she liked those products, and we got her something else too.

I would like it if it was the right sort of calendar. Candles would be lost on me but if you got a skincare one I would be in my element.

I would love it! A present every day for twenty four days, yes please!

My mum buys me a Lush or beauty advent calendar for my birthday, I love it. I'm not a fan of YC calendars though as the tea lights aren't great.

We buy my grandad one for his birthday every year and have done for as long as I can remember. He's usually finished it by 5th December, though. A candle one would be harder to do that with than a chocolate one

So more tea than no but maybe rethink calendar.

Thanks all.

Tea? I mean yes obviously!

I’ve got my 26 November birthday Dad a beanies advent. He has everything he wants and buys the best of everything
So I’ve bought that and he gets a travel mug and 2 sachets of coffee on day one, different coffees everyday and then Xmas eve is a mystery jar of coffee

I think that's a good birthday present. I'm even giving some people advent calendars as Xmas presents this year (obviously on the basis that they don't have to wait till next advent to open them all, lol)

Yes I’d like it

Yes. I gave my DF a beer one, DD a Glossybox one and DS a grooming one. I think it’s a great present obviously.

My birthday is end of November and I really wouldn't like an advent calendar for a present. Just seems a bit thoughtless somehow, like getting a generic 'bath and body' gift set or something.

Yeah id like it if it was something i liked x

It’s both my nieces birthdays next week and I always get them advent calendars. It’s, men the week after and someone usually gets me the M&S one

It’s mine ( birthday) not men
