I'm driving myself demented with the shall I get it now, or shall I wait for an incentive on the Harrods calendar.... I'll be really disappointed if it sells out, but equally annoyed if I buy it and they give a goodie bag or discount later. Argh!!!

This is my dilemma. I'm really tempted after watching an unboxing video but holding out for some sort of discount. Also now put off by the missing conditioner and the poor customer service people have received!

Does anyone have the Anthropologie calendar? It's down to £54.60 today, from £78, and has a number of products I like or would be happy to try, but annoyingly doesn't list sizes (which makes me suspicious they're all tiny!)

I bought Anthropologie full price and I’m gutted it’s reduced. It feels quite weighty but I think most sizes are small (I’m happy with that). I’d also bought my cousins full price Paperchase calendar’s which are now at 50% off. Next year I won’t be buying any until much later in the year, I feel a bit cheated!

Catslovepies · 17/11/2022 21:20

I've decided against buying an advent calendar this year I think, as there aren't any where I would use the majority of the products. But if anyone on this thread is selling your unwanted calendar items on vinted perhaps you could pm me your vinted name and I will take a look?

Also, to add, if it’s not too cheeky, if anyone would like to sell on their Sunday Riley Vitamin C cream from the John Lewis calendar, then I would be delighted to take it off your hands for a very fair price.

PomRuns · 17/11/2022 21:44

Maybe we covid have a swap thread again? I successfully swapped ab hourglass eyeshadow last year (maybe year before).

CurlyFerret · 17/11/2022 22:24

@EmmatheStageRat thank you, we don’t normally swap such extravagant gifts but it’s been a tough old year so a nice treat

@PomRuns a swap thread would be great, there’s always some things you don’t use and I hate wasting it if someone else would like it

CorporateBull · 17/11/2022 22:37

A plea here and now for any unwanted Peony Couture perfume for Liberty’s!

Happy to sell you mine once I’ve opened the appropriate day. :)

I've been stalking this thread for a while and loving all the reviews and discount codes.

I love a beauty advent calendar. My first was a body shop one a number of years ago, ive never bought one over £100 but was thinking of it this year. I've liked the No7 and M&S ones in the past, this year I was most impressed by the Sephora one but it seem to have sold out??

Interested to see if people sell things. If anyone is selling an empty Jo Malone diffuser too let me know!

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 18/11/2022 02:59

ASOS have 30% off all beauty products including their advent calendar so takes it down from £85 to £59.50

Oops forgot code: SERVEFACE

Couperi · 18/11/2022 08:47

Good saving on Asos but nothing for me in there unfortunately. H&B has arrived in a much smaller box than previous years.

EmmatheStageRat · 18/11/2022 12:01

For anyone who likes Clinique, this is a brilliant combination offer at M&S.

Great! Thanks! I won’t spoil it for you. 😅

There's up to 40 percent off certain advent calendars in the Amazon Black Friday week sale

I think the fact there's no Amazon one in it means that there won't be one this year as I think it's too late now for launch.

Adventadventures · 18/11/2022 13:19

last years feel unique calendar is down to £59 on Brand Alley.

frogface69 · 18/11/2022 13:22

I got the feel unique last year. I enjoyed everything in it. In fact I'm tempted to buy it again.

RosettaStormer · 18/11/2022 14:12

Does anyone think the Liberty one might be discounted?

Giftwithpurchase · 18/11/2022 14:25

30% off Fleur de Force's beauty edit on CB using code FLEURCB - some pretty nice things in there. Code also gets you 20% off most other things on the site (think La Labo & Frederic Malle are excluded)

Giftwithpurchase · 18/11/2022 14:29

Also SPREE gets you 30% off the benefit advent calendar on CB

Hotdogsforsale · 18/11/2022 14:44

I ordered the one on BrandAlley this morning - didn't realise it was last year's Feel Unique as they've called it something else.

Anyway, it's my first beauty AC after dithering for about 3 years! Seems really good value with lots of things I really want to try.

polmnlj · 18/11/2022 14:47

@Hotdogsforsale I have last year's Bodyshop calendar from brandalley. I went for it because I have loads of stuff and I will use shower gels etc anyway.

Branster · 18/11/2022 14:48

RosettaStormer · 18/11/2022 14:12

Does anyone think the Liberty one might be discounted?

I really don't know but I wondered the same. It was £10 off for 1 day a few (couple?) weeks ago.
I'm still undecided which one to get!

I had FeelUnique last year and really liked it!

Sad to report that Diptyque remains stubbornly £370!
