My wife had one which is a Nativity. We filled it wih Hershey's Kisses and soft peppermints.
I made a patchwork advent calendar long time ago. It had squares with small envelopes on them. I loved it, but my ex eventually threw it away.

@Tamara68 now that's neat! Thats pretty cool.

We always had them as children, but there was just a picture behind each door. By the time I had children, there were chocolates behind each door. Now there are all sorts aimed at adults, with cheese, alcohol, perfume, or other gifts for each day.

@Lugwho woow i love that, behind the door thats pretty smart
You don't have to drink the contents to have a whiskey Advent calendar. Some people collect the tiny bottles of alcohol.
I want one that relates to coins because I've never had one with something other than chocolate in it before.

Yah as a kid. The candy never lasted till Christmas

There are cheap ones filled with chocolates in supermarkets already.
Not everyone believes in advent as it's a christian cult thing.

dirge · M
ive had a couple. i kinda like the reloadable sort
AngelUnforgiven · 51-55, F
@dirge ive never heard of those are they like a subscription?
dirge · M
@AngelUnforgiven no; more like the one in the image you used - a sorta sturdy box (set of boxes, I suppose) that you can use over and over again. most of the ones I've seen for sale are cheap card/pasteboard meant to be ripped open for the day and thrown out after the season. I had one that was all puzzles. another that's a mini christmas tree, each day you pull out some new ornament for it. I've heard costco has a 5 foot tall one with lindt chocolates that goes for 2 or 300 dollars.
