Continuing the discussion ...will there be some good discounts?

@pinkchampagne1 I’m so annoyed I was too slow on the Boots box yesterday. Hoping it’s back in stock soon

Me too but I am confident it will be back in stock.
I prefer beauty edits to the current AC offerings.

Anyone know if the edit is available in store?

Hopefully it will come back in stock. I was kicking myself for dithering with the Love Island box they did in the summer and not ordering before it went out of stock. I kept checking the website and it was suddenly available to order again.

Me too @Emmmmz9 I’m stalking the page a lot.

It says online only.

This looks good too. Not currently available though.

Looks like the Spacenk calendar has sold out.
I sent my sister the link as her DH normally buys her a beauty advent and then realised the calendar was unavailable. 😏

It was in stock this morning as I ordered one @pinkchampagne1 , I wonder if it shouldn’t be eligible for the free gift so they’ve taken it down whilst they sort the IT out.

I was wondering if they have sold so many of them with the gwp offer that it’s now sold out. 🤔 If it has sold out it would probably do me a favour as that is the calendar I would find hardest to resist if it gets reduced and I really shouldn’t buy any more calendars! 😆

Space nk says currently unavailable rather than out of stock, which makes me think that it hasn't actually sold out. Usually space nk will say low stock before it sells out

Yeah, I reckon they made a mistake by including the AC with the GWP, which would be a fantastic bargain (if spending £250 could ever be seen as a fantastic bargain!).

Mmm I'm not sure, I got an email this morning advertising the GWP and it gave the advent calendar as a 'looking for inspiration' example, and also said 'last chance'. Really Ree has also had it marked as low stock for the past few days. I wouldn't be that surprised if it's first to sell out, it was probably the most popular/liked even on this thread this year?

I still can't decide which one I want!

I was tempted to buy the Space NK calendar with the GWP but the GWP is just so boring. Talked myself out of it.

Yeh I agree with those not keen on the space NK GWP. The sizes are so so small - how tiny is that Good Genes?

I have also talked myself out of that AC, as it has no fragrance. I may be tempted by the JLP as it has an exciting perfume and also the CT palette I fancy... but then I could just buy those items on eBay tbh. So there will have to be a big discount.

Argh I just went to order the Molton Brown one cos it has a great discount and it's sold out 🙈😭

Ooh look at this , Space NK are doing a fragrance advent No details yet but looks interesting

Fragrance Advent

Yes space nk have posted on instagram saying the calendar is now sold out but with a teaser for the fragrance one. Looks interesting but I’m happy with what I have (and that GWP looked rubbish so I’m not even annoyed that I bought my calendar before it arrived! 🤣)

I had pretty much convinced myself I had too much facial skincare waiting to be used up to buy an advent calendar this year…

BUT

I’ve just looked at the Harrods AC, and this has the Bioeffect EGF serum, which is £129 and I was thinking of going back to after a few year’s break. It would almost be cost efficient to get it full size in an advent calendar!

Did this get reduced at all last year? I see it’s (unsurprisingly) exempt from the 10% off weekend.

I'm going to try and resist and use up my stash of skincare and hair care otherwise it becomes too overwhelming

I've got big fomo for missing out on the Harrods fragrance calendar. There was a lot in it I would have used ... Wonder if I will crack for Space NK.

I'm going between thinking I don't need one cos I have so many things leftover from prev years and now I'm catching myself looking at the Harvey Nicks one 😳😳😳

My alternative is to get the m&s one tomo and use the money I've 'saved' on a really nice perfume too. Hmmmmmm

@Ilikeyoursleevesmmmmm yes “the money I’ve saved” I like your style!

<eyes CT palette on eBay>

I'm getting totally overwhelmed over here! Do I buy Vogue and pretend I'm rich. Do I stick to my actual budget and buy m+s?! Maybe with some Christmas presents in there to be sensible too! I like the look fantastic beauty chest too. Very sad I missed out on the boots edit too!
