Mine has been despatched today from Poland too.

I'm in Ireland and my arrival date is 2-3 December! So annoying!! [/quote]
I got a new email with an updated delivery date of 19-21/11. Did you get one too or is Ryan organising special treatment for me?

BuffaloMozzerella · 13/11/2020 18:31

Yes! Just read it now!

OchonAgusOchonO · 13/11/2020 18:36

They're a total disaster but at least that's good news.

Mine is still loitering in Wroclaw and hasn't made it to UPS yet. I assume ours will be keeping one another company on the journey.

You lot are a terrible bunch of enablers! You have convinced me that two advent calendars is an acceptable thing. You've also forced me to rush off to QVC and order the Elemis set...and possibly the L'Occitane set. I've bought no presents for anyone but myself so far this year.

I now want this to be made into a Pixar short film.

@Costacoffeeplease

Yes I’m enjoying the lumene too
I have an unopened one waiting for December 1st. I had one last year and it had some really good stuff in it, so I decided to splurge this year again.

My treasure truck-ed £47.99 Amazon calendar arrived today. DD and I will share. It's beautiful. My Liberty picture ones arrived too (£7.99 in a promotion last week) and they're gorgeous; I've bought one for each of my 3 closest friends and am planning to send them to arrive at the end of Nov.

I'm done now. Really. No twitching. No more calendars. Must step away from this thread!

@Butterymuffin - I now want this to be made into a Pixar short film.

Starring the penguins from Madagascar. They'd really kick ass.

OchonAgusOchonO · 13/11/2020 21:21

@MissMatty2hats - You lot are a terrible bunch of enablers!

Aren't they though (note I'm claiming to be the victim in this too - probably the first sign of having a problem)?

My Elemis arrived from QVC today. I went for the rose one. It smells only gorgeous.

You really are all a terrible bunch of enablers

I thought I was done aaages ago but this thread made me buy the SkinStore 12 day box, the NEOM candles and the CEW box Blush

OchonAgusOchonO · 13/11/2020 22:07

I made a Pixar short film but it wouldn't let me upload so here are a few stills showing the journey my and @BuffaloMozzerella's calendars will be making.

You may recall I mentioned I'm geographically challenged. The fact I positioned Ireland east of Poland and only noticed when I'd finished the film is proof of theat.

Ochon Grin That's cute. Ryan and his kisses should be in there somewhere!

OchonAgusOchonO · 13/11/2020 22:26

@EatPrayYoga - you're right! I'll add him in tomorrow.

BuffaloMozzerella · 13/11/2020 22:56

Haha! I want a penguin to deliver my box now 🐧

OchonAgusOchonO · 13/11/2020 23:57

I've added Ryan in

Ochon I love that

Butterymuffin · 14/11/2020 10:58

@OchonAgusOchonOch That's just the thing! Love those 🐧🐧🐧

The 🐧 will kick ass. No one better to have in charge of delivery.

TeatimeAtCloppa · 14/11/2020 11:28

[quote CupboardMonster]@TeatimeAtCloppa the degustabox advent has arrived, it came with a little contents booklet and I'm really impressed. It's huge too! [/quote]

😃 It sounds brilliant Monster. I ordered it for my DH! He's going to love it I think!!

[quote Housewife2010]Fantastic one off beauty box for anyone who still has money left! cewuk.co.uk/product/cew-female-founders-beauty-edit/[/quote]
I have the CT palette included and love it!

Orcadianrythyms · 14/11/2020 12:39

I feel bad encouraging any more purchases but the JL jewellery calender has 30% off this morning www.johnlewis.com/john-lewis-partners-jewellery-advent-calendar/p5176040 . I've justified it by thinking I will gift some but I know I'm a hopeless case Grin

Pomegranatespompom · 14/11/2020 12:54

That looks really lovely @Orcadianrythyms

EatPrayYoga · 14/11/2020 13:30

I like the JL. It's quite good with the saving but I feel like 3 calendars is a lot. But then if I had a jewellery one and a beauty one on the go then... maybe

My mum loved jewellery so I'd get it for her but I think she'd turn her nose up at plated jewellery.

MiaN · 14/11/2020 14:43

Can't wait for December discussions!

I don't think there will be many advent calendars left for black Friday. Elle maybe but most seems sold out
Space NK, Liberty, NetaPorter, Look Fantastic, John Lewis, Harrods appear as sold out
