and very excited!
What do people do? Actually open one door a day in December or excitedly rip it all open when you pick it up next week? Grin

How have you bought it, when it’s not on sale until next week?
I’ve had quite a few of these calandras over the last couple of years, and I’ve been really bad at opening it early 😐. Going to try and open it day by day this year.

I got an email with a Sparks offer (did have to spend £25 on other things though.
I'm going to try and restrain myself!

It’s totally joyless if you tear the whole thing apart when it arrives! I’ve had one the past two years and it’s great fun opening one every morning Smile

Ooh I'll have to have a look at my Sparks offers and see if I've got one. I want to get some perfume and cleanser, so I'll have no problems spending £25. I got it last year and I opened day by day - it was great having a little daily treat!

I've ordered mine. Some of the things were in last years calendar, but there were/are some great travel sizes, and the odd bit of stuff I won't use can be passed on to DD. It's a good buy, and DH started getting it for me as I would have been the only person in the house without an advent calendar. I like having a cup of coffee in the morning and seeing what's in it!

I haven’t had an email, boo! Wait until December and follow the thread on here, it’s usually good fun.

You join the thread 😁 and open it one day at a time . No spoilers! And I will follow the thread even though I don't buy one but I like to live vicariously through you all

wineoclockthanks · 25/10/2019 19:12

Ok, you've convinced me!
I'll hide it away until 1st December and then come and join the thread.

Hope everyone who wants one, gets one.

Got mine ordered Smile

For those who haven't had an email, but want one, what happens if you go on line and look for the calendar in the search box? Does it show up, but without the discount?

If you don't get a Sparks offer you can buy it from next Thursday. I always get it, its really good value.
