Advent Calendars 2021 - anything new on the horizon?

[Rannva]

I'm always late to the advent calendar thing and only remember about November when they've sold out.

Not too into the beauty ones myself, but would be happy with a tea, chocolate - fancy! - or other edible sort. Marshmallows I've seen in previous years. Jewellery making also has its charms.

Got your eye on anything good?

Can anyone recommend a good wine one?

Just gone to order the snuffling pig advent calendar and it’s out of stock

I bought myself a crystal advent calendar last year from etsy.com. I love crystals and they came in lovely little silver boxes that I have kept and plan to reuse this year

Ive got one from boots of all places

@Ragwort

Can anyone recommend a good coffee one? Ground coffee not capsules.

I bought the Bonne Maman one for my DPs last year and it was a great success.

I've just looked at the Bonne Maman one for this year.

NINE pounds p/p so £32.99 each.

Oh a jam Bonne maman calendar will be well used in this house!

Love honey one? Advent calender that spices up your love life.

@Ragwort Whittards do a good one and it is usually half price on Black Friday if you can hold your nerve until late November

@Pinotwoman82 I've gone with the Laithwaites one this year

@Ragwort I don't know if they're any good but Yawn do coffee advent calendars

I'm tempted but also like the look of the hot chocolate one!

The Bonne Maman one was great last year, and I was all set to get it for OH again but the p&p is crazy. I got it in costco last year, I wonder if they'll have it again...

@WeAllHaveWings

Any suggestions for interesting ones for older teen 17-19 boys?

Prefer food or drink to anything plastic.

Mine loved the pringles one

Just bought the Bonne Maman one on Etsy-£4.99 p&p

@Pinotwoman82 I've bought the virgin wines one a few times for my father in law and he's enjoyed it
