We still have 2 months to go so there's still time for dilemmas, decisions and discounts.

We have a few coming out this week including John Lewis, OK and No7. I'm still WAC (without advent calendar) but that may soon change!

@MrsBnow12 yes, it’s mixed

MiaN · 13/10/2024 11:47

They are mixed but with 24 days (vs 12) I think there are plenty feminine leaning I love givenchy l'inderdit myself it's one of my favorite perfumes, as well as this is Her Zadig and Volter. I have not tried this is really her. Good Girl and Eilish are favorite of somewhen I work with. The small bottles are so cute and the box very reusable. I think it's better then the fragrance shop as well, they don't ship to Ireland by the looks of things

Totally down the lower end of the scale, however, if someone is looking for a cheaper one I’ve just had an email about the gruum advent calendar. £50 worth £260.

Thanks @mian and @QueefofSheena. I have gone ahead and ordered it.

MiaN · 13/10/2024 12:09

sorry about all typing errors in my previous post.

My Harrods advent seem to be stuck since Friday Morning but I hope it gets moving again tomorrow.

FredaFox · 13/10/2024 12:26

I still have the box from last years Selfridges ac what do people do with them? Previously I just recycle but I kept that one obviously planning to reuse it but I think I might just get rid

bigdecisionstomake · 13/10/2024 12:38

@FredaFox I put mine up on facebook marketplace (free to be collected) and they go really quickly, often to mums of young teens who want to re-fill them themselves.

Isabelle70 · 13/10/2024 12:43

@FredaFox I sold my empty Liberty box for £20 last year on FB and planning on doing the same again this year……

Thelifeofawife · 13/10/2024 12:48

@FredaFox Put it on eBay or Vinted, lots of people sell old one on there. I recently bought a one to make a DIY advent for my DSD

I store my Christmas decorations in mine. I’ve 8 though - so I’ve decided to sell a few.

AprilLady · 13/10/2024 13:59

@FredaFox I really like last year’s Selfridge box. Currently using it to store my make-up - it is big, but suits me given the amount of make up, make up brushes etc I have on the go.

MrsBnow12 · 13/10/2024 11:07

@IDontHateRainbows @MiaN Do you know if the Perfume Shop one has any male/unisex included as well? I am clueless with fragrances 😂

Yes, it is a mixture of male/ female/ unisex

pinkchampagne1 · 13/10/2024 14:36

The perfume Shop advent looks good value and a nice selection of fragrances. Good that it is 24 days as most fragrance calendars are only 12 day ones. Must resist temptation though!

IlovePond · 13/10/2024 14:57

Oh dear: I have just discovered that the Sephora offers on their site all stack. For example, the Tatcha free gift, the RDJ offer, the beauty box plus TREAT15 for 15% off. This seems remarkably generous. I haven’t tried going through TCB so don’t know yet if they are accepting the discount code.

Off to have another look…

MrsBnow12 · 13/10/2024 15:05

For those looking at The Perfume Shop one, they are on TopCashback and £3 tracked for my order.

Biscuitburglar · 13/10/2024 19:35

Anyone going for Vogue this year? It’s available for preorder now. Sitting on hands trying to resist!

cheesychipsontheoche · 13/10/2024 19:36

Sephora advent has been dispatched. All of a sudden I'm going to have 4 advents - h&b, Sephora, will get M&S when it's released and the eBay this is beauty one. I love Christmas but the build up will be even better

IlovePond · 13/10/2024 19:43

Hi, the TREAT15 code for Sephora is approved by TCB so should track. I still have a fantasy basket🙀

QueefofSheena · 13/10/2024 19:49

@Biscuitburglar I’m the same. I don’t need any skincare or makeup and I’m not intending to order a beauty AC this year, only fragrance, but Vogue is sorely tempting me.

Biscuitburglar · 13/10/2024 19:58

@QueefofSheena It seems a lot of money for the contents compared to some of the others. I would be very happy if someone bought it for me though (which definitely isn’t going to happen!).

FredaFox · 14/10/2024 00:26

Wow thanks for all the replies!!!

What’s RDJ please x

ABirdsEyeView · 14/10/2024 08:10

Has anyone who ordered the Glossybox advent, received their free gift. Customer services are telling me this is an e voucher but I've never received it and it wasn't clear from the order form.

Rio de Janeiro I think

IDontHateRainbows · 14/10/2024 10:02

Fenwick advent calendar didn't take my boat but I was able to combine some of the offers/christmas sets to get up to £180 and get the goodie bag... got the estee lauder blockbuster and the clinique gwp. Hope to sell enough on ebay to pay for what I want to keep - the black honey/pink honey lipstick duo is on my wish list although the last thing I need in the world is more lippies!
