...annnnnnnd they're back :)
Missed out on this last year for father in law, ended up getting another beer advent calendar but wasn't as good so think I'll pre order as they opened pre orders today...

My Haribo one dispatched early and was due last week but Amazon "lost" it. Same thing happened me last year with a Galaxy one. They say it might arrive, but it won't so they've refunded me.
No Haribo calendars with Prime delivery at the moment, and I don't want to pay £11.95 delivery so I'm holding off again.
First of the kids ones purchased today :)

Mad they have every other country in the drop down box on the front page of the site but not Ireland. Says they have web chat during business hours, maybe ask if they will ship here?
Whatever you do, don't use the likes of addresspal (like pre brexit) as you'll get stung for duty and an admin fee.

Anyone know s way to get the bodyshop to deliver to irrland. Nearest stote to me was Limerick that closed. Want to treat myself to their advent calender once baby arrives.
Thanks, if your calendar gets through OK without loads of other charges, will order.
I've ordered from them post-Brexit and haven't had any issues with import duties. Can't guarantee it though. They don't apply Irish VAT but they do fill in all the correct paperwork so maybe I just got lucky. My calendar is shipped already so I'll let you know what the story is when it arrives :)
The Smiggle calendar is very popular with our kids, its actually got stuff they can use instead of plastic crap.
Wait till November before buying though, it always gets reduced to between €20-€25
Is down to £25 from £30 on the UK site...our reduction will come.
Thanks, any idea if they deduct UK VAT and apply Irish vat so I don't get caught for import duties when it lands in Ireland and is delivered to me (this wouldn't have been a problem before Brexit).
I would highly recommend it. There's always a good variety of both flavours and tea types (green, rooibos, black, matcha). I'd buy early though as they usually sell out a fair bit before December. There's also a nice aspect of being able to opt in to an email a day in relation to the calendar which gives suggestions for how to brew the tea for that day.
Have mother in law who loves tea, got the fortnam and Mason version 2 years ago and whilst she said she liked it wanted to try a different get a different tea one this year...this could be it.
They're so good! They're always coming up with new flavours. Some I don't like but that's just personal preference. But I think it shows how good they are when I've 2 full shelves of tea since first getting the advent calendar! They're already shipping out pre-orders of the calendar now. Mine shipped yesterday so might have to hide it till December!
The Jo Malone one looks fab, wouldn't spend that much on one, but stuff in it looks lovely.
Last time I looked they weren't shipping confectionery from Amazon but I've just found one that delivers in 1-2 months so I ordered it 🎉
I'll be getting a haribo one like last year and no doubt be bitching about the price and stinginess of it
Dealz come in great for the chocolate ones
Anothet kids one (or a maybe an adult!) The Bic one is down to £20

I knew you could get lots of different flavoured tea but I didn't know you could get THAT much! I just went into the spoiler alert and they look delicious! Very tempting
Looks great, but doesn't seem to ship to Ireland?
Edit - Ok, seem to have ordered it! Not sure what was happening, on some browsers I couldn't select Ireland as country.
Rituals ones are online, got one for her ladyship the year before last and it went down well. Good sized miniatures.

I got a Pukka tea advent calendar last year and it was my favourite calendar ever. Will be getting it again this year.
Thanks for this, just ordered the Disney book one. €11 is great value.
I've signed up to be notified when my favourite tea calendar goes on sale again this year: https://www.birdandblendtea.com/products/tea-advent-calendar
Been getting it since 2017 and never disappointed. Like supporting a small business that's grown and that is massively environmentally conscious. Plus the teas are gorgeous.
Guys I know the fidget things where big over the summer for kids just seen an advent calendar in Smyths if anyone is interested https://www.smythstoys.com/ie/en-ie/toys/sensory-toys/fidget-toys/24-day-fidget-toy-advent-calendar/p/203051?utm_source=Circulator&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=TY072-21
That’s a shame
Ordered the Marvel and Disney story book collections for the kids. They each have 24 books, and are 9.99 STG on preorder. The kids got the Mr. Men one last year and still love the books from it.
I was disappointed with the LF one last year after all the hype, it just about arrived in time, they made a balls of deliveries, one plus was they thought I didn't receive it by December 1st and put Credit on my account! :)
I like the idea of these
great for the imagination
Look Fantastic.com has theirs on pre order if you want to check it out
I've ordered the Feel unique Beauty one for myself, says its already been dispatched which is great! Boots a while back had a sale on the mens one, got MrPC one last year and he loved it so have that for him. Looking at the lego ones for the smallies. :) eek roll on the big C!
