Do you get an Advent Calendar?

[Kate!]

If you do, which one do you get?

[caprimint]

I don't personally but sometimes I buy one for my mom. This year I'm gonna buy her the new Cadbury biscoff one :amazed:

[Niamh.]

Not for myself but I usually get one for my kids (who are now 21 & 25 :laugh: )

I've just seen one!! Yum.

My parents bought my kids the ones with pockets then fill them with little gifts and sweets every year. My beautiful niece is 17 next week and we've got her a Benefit advent calendar, amongst other things... Can't believe she's old enough for driving lessons...

Me too - and I had to share it with my brother :laugh:

I was only telling my son about them the other day - he said it sounded rubbish and why would you even get one. Don't know they are born these days - he wanted the bloody Harrods one.....he got a Cadbury one and will be grateful :fist:

[bots]

i did when i was 5 :laugh: I think i got Cadbury and Mars ones. I also remember 1 year, my brother opened all the doors and took my chocolates :fist:

[GoldHeart]

I get a mixture of commercial & religious.

Never bother with the chocolate ones, I think the lady time I tried a chocolate advent ...I was still at school :laugh: .

Usually yes, but I’m not here for December so not this year. :(

oh please God no

No I never buy advent calendars, used to when the boys were young but even then they lost interest and didn't open all the doors and the chocolate was never nice either

I have two picture ones all ready to go - one nativity scene and one just generic Christmas. Probably get a chocolate one when they go down in price at the beginning of December
