Unlikely to see the truck in Coventry as not much seems to come here sadly.

I'd love the advent calendar to contain a sleep trainer for 5mo DS who refuses to sleep more than an hour at a time at night. A flake the size of DS for me to scoff instead, would be great Grin (he's 24lbs!)

I too hope the Cadbury Truck is full of cash and heading towards a UK tax office.

PirateSmile · 07/12/2015 14:38

Fuck Cadbury and their tax dodging cheating ways. Mumsnet shouldn't have anything to do with them.

I didn't end up spotting it but in terms it what's inside... Well whats better than chocolate? Yum!

Wjjkl · 08/12/2015 15:32

I would like the whole thing to be full of Buttons

marymanc · 08/12/2015 19:01

I am in Exeter..not seen one yet. I hope it will come here.

SayAGreatBigThankyou · 09/12/2015 09:13

I've only seen it here! I hope chocolate coins are behind one of the doors. Failing that, a truckload of buttons would suit me fine!

DrSausagedog · 09/12/2015 12:53

I would love to see it, and would love for it to have those Cadburys miniature chocolates you used to be able to buy, wrapped in foil and a paper layer, they were so divine.

BettyOctopus · 09/12/2015 13:15

Double deckers please

LassWiTheDelicateAir · 10/12/2015 00:58

Flakes. No more need be said.

Hopezibah · 10/12/2015 12:54

Sadly we haven't seen it but what a fantastic initiative! I would hope that there would be lots of fun festive activities for the kids.

peronel · 10/12/2015 19:44

Full of Cadbury's creme eggs...

Milly2015 · 10/12/2015 22:21

Me and 11 week old son saw the truck in Edinburgh today. A little bit cold and wet but we had a photo taken under the mistletoe and a big umbrella. Enjoying the free chocolates at home while I warm up with baby.

SouthWesterlyWinds · 11/12/2015 00:21

No Cadburys truck yet. Am hoping but my area of the country tends to sometimes miss out. I would hope for a Cadburys metre long bar of dairy milk. Failing that, I would be happy with a freddo frog.

Anneb62 · 11/12/2015 09:43

Petty the cadburys truck didn't come to Glasgow,we Glaswegians love cadburys chocolate.

marshgirl · 11/12/2015 20:13

I haven't seen it as do not live in the places it is visiting. Would love the biggest bar of Cadburys Whole Nut ever made....my favourite .

GetKnitted · 11/12/2015 23:38

wishing for Terry's chocolate oranges ... whoops :)

Nottheshrinkingcapgrandpa · 12/12/2015 17:30

I would love a year's supply of chocolate...

SaltySeaBird · 12/12/2015 18:06

Nope not seen it.

Have to say a lot of Cadburys promo threads but after the excitement of being selected for the panel ... never heard another thing much less received any chocolate to test.

I'd like some old fashioned Dairy Milk inside made to the recipe before they made it pretty revolting. Failing that some delicious, delicious Lindt. Wink

SaltySeaBird · 12/12/2015 18:11

Can I also add that my MIL misguidedly (but we appreciated the gesture) brought me and DD a Cadburys advent calendar each. It's the 12th today so 24 doors in total should be open but we've only opened 6 in total as the contents taste horrid. DD just isn't interested and said it was yucky. Yet she is more than happy to eat chocolate normally, including the horrid Kinnerton stuff.

NickMyLipple · 13/12/2015 09:00

I haven't seen the trucks... I'm a bit too far away from most of the locations, and I'm working daily at the moment (as well as performing in our local Pantomime!)

If I had my way, the trucks would contain chocolate (that's a given, really) but specifically I would like Wispa Golds, Double Deckers and Boosts!

Then, just to be cheeky, I'd like a DSLR to accidently fall out the doors into my hands. I've been yearning after one, but they are too expensive to justify.

Failing that, if you could sort out a diamond for my DP to give to me, that would be marvellous. I've been secretly wanting a Christmas proposal for years!

thesoupdragon44 · 14/12/2015 21:23

I would love the Cadbury's truck to come our way, I haven't seen it yet but if it had some chocolates for me to hang on my tree that would be my shopping sorted!

mymummysworld · 14/12/2015 22:24

Not spotted the truck this year but we did go the year before last - boy loved it!
I would like it filled with Cadbury Twirls.
