I have a Despicable Me one this year, but I usually get bored or forget to do it so I end up eating the chocolate in January.

How have you not heard of these?! :P
I haven't had one in years. A few years ago, Mam bought these ones that you hang up and you put chocolate in them yourself.... REALLY?! For some reason, my sisters WAY prefer this and bake loads of Christmas themed chocolates to put in them...why?

It's more exciting and you get more than the tiniest piece of chocolate each day :P

For me part of the excitement was always "OMG LOOK IT'S A ******* SNOWMAN YAYAYAY!"

Gonna get a Thomas the tank engine one on Monday. Once my mum bought me and my brother a Lego one, I was well disappointed when there was no chocolate.

its a lot of money compared to the £2 - £4 chocolate ones but it looks worth it :D
my cousin had a similar last year and some how worked out she got the equivilent to around £40?
most people say advent calenders are childish but i love em :')

Haha yeah!! I talked to the girls selling them and we did some maths, it's quite a lot, I think each one of the little ones is worth about £4.50 and big one £9 IIRC

I never used Advent Calendars as it wasn't a tradition for me. I do remember it being used at primary school though, and the teachers would pop out a chocolate for each day of the month and hand it to a lucky student. Haha.

I *think* this will be my first year with no advent calandar.

No because I have this problem where I need to eat any chocolate or suggary candy in sight haha. Maybe I would use one of it had some sort of non-edible gift inside.
my stepdad bought me a peppa pig one this yearrrrr
he seems to think i have some strange obsession with peppa pig (I DONT ;ll) because he always buys me peppa pig magazines and he got me peppa pig bubble bath and shower gel and pasta shapes ahaha so i just the peppa pig advent calender is just uno part of the peppa pig thing

For me part of the excitement was always "OMG LOOK IT'S A ******* SNOWMAN YAYAYAY!"
On mine last year I got so annoyed that it gave me like 3 robins in a row :(.
We originally sold them in my shop for 79-99p, but for about a week now they have been put at 39p and I bought Max a Mario one, I have no idea why. I'd have bought my sister a One Direction one, but she doesn't like the cheap chocolate.
