The £40 Boots beauty advent calendar that's so popular it has a waiting list - and it doesn't go on sale until next month

http://i4.mirror.co.uk/incoming/article11243968.ece/ALTERNATES/s810/MAIN-boots-beauty-advent-calendar.jpg

The ever increasing demand for beauty advents shows no sign of waning, as more and more of us shun traditional chocolate-filled calendars in favor of 25-days worth of make up or skincare goodies.

The No7 advent calendar from Boots officially goes on sale in stores and online from October 25, 2017, and features £169 worth of products. :omgno:

Glow – A Cork Christmas Celebration – Nov. 24th – Dec. 18th (See below)

https://i.imgur.com/6i4kC4v.jpg?1

We’ll gladly embrace any excuse to visit Cork, a county so jammed with beauty and buzz that it’s a must for everyone visiting Ireland.

Thankfully, during the festive period, we’ve one more reason to visit the Rebel County.

Cork City’s Grand Parade and Bishop Lucey Park house Cork’s Christmas markets and, if you’re planning a visit, expect delicious artisan food, vintage carousel rides, choral performances, mulled wine and entertainment galore.

The dates for the Christmas markets in Cork are yet to be confirmed, but if it kicks off on the last Friday of the month, as it has previously, we can expect to see them launch on November 24th.

The JL ad is pretty average, and I note you make no mention of the politically correct family in this one LT :hehe:

what is the message in it, as it totally went over my head :suspect: so he gets a light for his room and the monster disappears, but it was a friendly monster so why would he want it to go...confused..

I think M & S is better...Paddington :love:

in previous years there has been a message, like the Bear and the Rabbit..don't forget your friends, the old man on the moon, don't forget your elderly relatives and it was tied in with Help the Aged, last year was Christmas is for everyone I guess! at least they tried to relay a message but this year its just here's a monster, he will sell out, oh and buy the light as well...the advert makes no sense, it would only make sense if the monster was scary :fist: disappointing, I think they think they can churn out any old trash now and the public will wet themselves over it ...well no :hmph: apart from you and LT of course :hehe:

This year's offer is a humble experiment that, while failing to pack as much heft as previous efforts, will succeed in keeping the kids quiet for 120 seconds

Krispy Kreme has just unveiled its Christmas doughnuts

https://www.standard.co.uk/s3fs-public/styles/hero_tablet/public/thumbnails/image/2017/11/14/16/rudolph-0.jpg

Krispy Kreme gave away 36,000 free doughnuts to the people of London yesterday. Or at least, they tried to...

Sadly, UberEats broke and Londoners were left doughnutless, Twitter went into a #frenzy and Deliveroo stepped into save the day (ouch). The rest is history and will forever be known as #doughnutgate.

But there is some good news after the scandal: Krispy Kreme has just announced its Christmas doughnut range and yes, everything on it is very Instagrammable.

On sale from November 27, the limited edition Festive Friends selection takes the form of a Santa Belly, Rudolph Reindeer and one big fat sprinkly O.

Let's meet them: https://www.standard.co.uk/goingout/restaurants/krispy-kreme-has-just-unveiled-its-christmas-doughnuts-a3690946.html
