Advent Calendar FAQ

Most people who are just getting started with advent calendars have these kinds of questions:

Do the advent calendars have full-size products?

It depends. There are a few advent calendars that will include full-size products, (See Cult Beauty Advent Calendar above) however usually in order to fit the products into a cute little advent box, many will be miniature versions.

It's only September! Why do I need to buy an advent calendar already?

Because they sell out fast. The LEGO advent calendars are already on backorder, because the initial allotment already sold. Seriously, if you see one of these advent calendars you want, grab it now and find a safe place to hide them until December.

How much do advent calendars cost?

One of the great things about advent calendars, is you can find one in any price range. From as low as $10 to ones in the hundreds of dollars, there is literally one out there for your budget.

What kind of advent calendars are there?

Advent calendars run the gamut in the variety of their awesome daily fun. From LEGO and Funko Pop to Wine and Beauty products, literally every company and industry now sells them and has them ready to go months before you will be throwing on those sweaters.

In a nutshell? I'm a bit of a walking contradiction!

I love traveling the world and stepping out of my comfort zone, but I can also be a complete introvert and will be totally happy hanging out at home with my family for days on end. I enjoy working out and going for runs or HIIT classes at the gym, but I also have no problem binging on a bag of cheetos and a glass of wine (which pairs surprisingly well together!). I love how I look dressed up and ready to hit the town, but am much more comfortable in a pair of sweats while watching The Mandolorian with my husband and two little boys. I love trying exotic foods and the different spices and textures that come with it, but my all-time-favorite meal is a juicy cheeseburger with fries. 

So, maybe I should just call myself well-rounded!? Whatever it is, I keep an open mind about everything and am always on the hunt for a new and exciting adventure!

Oh that’s great to know. I just checked my local Costco and the Harry Potter and Mandalorian were actually only $29 in store!

Rituals has also released their advent calendar already. It’s more pricey this year ($112 instead of $70ish), but the design is more 3D than ever before and really cute! I’m waiting for now, but Rituals is one of my favorite brands and I love their advent calendars for stocking stuffers/”filler” gifts (and end up keeping a LOT of the goodies for myself, of course! :P).

I didn’t know it has been released, I purchased 2020 and loved it. Not crazy about the price increase, though. 😳

Amy in KC

I know. I don’t know that I can justify the price. I’ve purchased the last two calendars they had and loved them, though.
