FYI - these calendars are seasonal (look for new ones in October/November this year), and in the meantime, if you are looking for something sweet, I recommend checking out the Best Subscription Boxes of the Year (voted by our readers), including the Best Candy Subscription Boxes.

I would make one, put my fave chocolates in there, but then it wouldn’t be a surprise! Why can’t my husband be crafty like that?

Aaaaaaaah I want one of those Vosges calendars sooooooooo bad! 20% off and free shipping today is pushing my self control to its limit. I’m on a spending freeze and I…will…stay…strong. Sigh…now I wish I hadn’t spent so much money on beauty subscriptions in the last couple months. ?

If you make your own calendars. Trader Joes has a variety of different types of candies you can use to put in your calendars . Some are wrapped but you might have to wrap some of the others. They have some chocolate guav@ bites my husband loves. And some great sea salt caramels. There prices are good also.

I NEED none of them but WANT all of them. The one that has Serves 8-10 made me laugh. I know what they mean but I keep picturing cutting up a caramel into 8 pieces.

I got a fabric advent calendar for my kids last year, so this year I’m just refilling it with fancy chocolates – lindt, godiva, some french ones, etc.

The Mrs Prindable’s calendar is so cute but I’m not ordering any of these. I don’t need any chocolate and it will be hard enough for me turning down sweets at the office during the holidays.

While these are all tempting, I will most likely end up getting the ALDI version. It’s $1.99. 🙂

One of my favorites! Splurging on 4 this time, usually I just get 1 for each child, it’s time I had my own.

It is probably for the best that it was 80 degrees here yesterday so there is no way I could order chocolate and not have it arrive melted…
