Default Do you get an Advent Calendar?

If you do, which one do you get?

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

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

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
