Final one before the opening threads. Who is starting the opening threads and for which ones? Please share the links below. There’ll be Waifs and Strays one, DIY, and possibly Harrods, Space NK, Liberty?

On 1st December, the opening threads start, I’ll ask MN to update this post with links.

Adding my thanks to @BakeOffRewatch also and of course the entire RHOBAC gang who have made this fun if expensive.

Hope everyone enjoys whatever they are opening tomorrow. 😍

Absolutely! I'm staying (I just half expected a mass exodus to the BAC opening threads, but I should know better about the staying power of you lovely lot)

I'll be still watching this thread, hoping for a last calendar bargain 🤞🥰

All good things must come to an end! @AprilLady usually does this thread I think, I’ve followed for a few years, love their spreadsheets, I don’t know why it’s been so madly popular this year - sign of the times?

I think at the rate that they’re being launched so early we’ll be on a new advent thread in march anyway

Hi
Its been my first time on here after a good friend recommended it as we are both addicted to beauty. In a good way. 😍
Its been so much fun and such a lovely escape during what is for many of us a very stressful time of year. Im now looking forward to the opening ones. I was going to do Space NK and a fragrance one but then was guided that fragrance are from Xmas day so I've joined liberty and eill open my liberty as well. I was going to leave it until jan but I have a few others to choose from for Jan and ill be glad to get that out from under my bed. Its been there ages. 🤣
I also now am excited for next years advent chat in August! 😍
So thank you again everyone and wishing everyone a peaceful and lovely Advent season. 🥰

For anyone interested in my Frankenstein advent calendar, here are the 'promo' photos I took a while ago 🩷 I don't think I'll be getting a photographer job anytime soon 🤣

I have this one! Was wondering if there was enough of us for a LF thread - if one isn’t already set up I am happy to start one?

Delurking to say I also have LF...

I had to hide this thread to stop me buying more 🤣

@BakeOffRewatch Thanks for the shout out!

I have LF fragrance for now and Boots skincare for Jadvent. Unless I change my mind and switch at the last minute. Is there a specific thread for either? Might just join Waifs and Strays anyway 😄

Oh and there's my Bonne Maman too I'll be starting tomorrow. I've looked a bit at offers this weekend but little actually on calendars.

Boots Skincare - https://www.mumsnet.com/talk/style_and_beauty/5452586-boots-skincare-advent-calendar-opening-thread

Thanks @OchonAgusOchonOh ! If there's a Boots thread that might sway me to open first. I do like the shared opening experience.

@JoRaRaRa wow your calendar is EPIC!

Anyone interested in a glossybox opening thread? I think a few of us went for it after seeing Miss Boux's unboxing (months ago 😂) ..
Happy to set one up 🤩

Does anyone know if there is a swaps thread running this year?

Wow, your calendar looks amazing! 😃

I’m interested in a Glossybox thread!

Wow! That looks amazing!!!!
