Our Final Pick! Christmas 2016 Advent Calendars for Smix, Me, & for Mrs Meow!
/We are so excited for Christmas! These two rascals are sorted for advent calendars, and my choice has just arrived too. So let's have a look at 2016's picks for the World of Kitsch household.
Duvet from Asda online
Smix picked the Tesco Hot Wheels calendar. I bought it for £15 last week in store, but it appears to be £12 this week on the website.
Behind the doors are 8 cars and the rest of the days are fun Christmas accessories to pair with the vehicles.
The second calendar is one for us to share, which I won via a competition on the fabulous, local, culinary website Eating Ideas (check them out if you don't know them already).
It's the Hotel Chocolat Truffels for Two calendar, which costs £26 & which has two mini chocolates for each day.
Mrs Meow's calendar is next, and a rarer find than a doggy advent, it's a cat treat calendar from Lidl which cost £4.99 Its pretty hefty though. The contents look kibbly, and I'm hoping she will eat them, you never know with her.
Last is my own choice, and rather than go for a makeup advent calendar this year I splashed out on the Sanctuary Let Go Days of Christmas advent. It costs £25 and it's packed with travel size minis of their top products, and home fragrance items too. I buy from the range throughout the year, so I'm looking forward to finding some new favourites.
It's another hefty calendar, but the £25 price tag is softened by the fact it's included in the yearly Boots 3 for 2 Christmas gift offer. So I bought two similarly priced presents for other people and then got the calendar 'free' as it were. Merry Christmas to myself!
So which calendar are you after? The only other one that's tempting me is the £250-worth M&S Beauty calendar, which you can get for £35 when you spend £35 in store on home or clothing. If any of you get that, I will be so envious!
