    So, a few years back, I had a very expensive French lingerie advent calendar bought for my Christmas present. He had spent around £5000! However, the company rang him and spent half an hour asking him everything from my sizes, to colour preferences, to the type of perfume I wore. It was totally customised to me and seriously beautiful. Most standard advent calendars rarely work ..... Wrong perfumes, wrong make-up colours, dark chocolate not milk etc. I would have been very disappointed with all of these shown.

The money spent here could have changed peoples lives. They could have bought tents, sleeping bags, winter coats and warm socks and gifted them to homeless people, or bought Christmas presents for kids who's parents struggle with money at the moment - or both! - and done some actual good instead of funneling even more money to these awful brands. These thousands upon thousands of dollars spent here with taxes and shipping are ridiculous and could have done *a lot* of good. But no, they wanted to open advent calendars, but only open them.

      Yea that was actually disgusting, IDC what the brand is over 5.000 dollars and they give you nail polish a shit ton of apparently stinky perfume probably all the crap they couldn't get people to buy, this actually annoys me I could never afford this 5000 is more than my car cost but it still makes me mad that they are taking advantage of people like this if I did spend that much money on a fancy Dior advent calendar I'm expecting Santa and his reindeer to pop out the last box like I'm expecting magical not nail polish tiny candles and candle lids no way they are greedy and disgusting

      My mom had a Hallmark store growing up and was known as “the queen of gifts,” and she always talked about one sided ornaments being shoddy and poorly designed. At least make it reversible so it can be placed wherever on the tree or display and it won’t show an unornamented back side! Any time I see something like that I instinctively hiss, channeling the spirit of my mother. 😂

The yr before it was 3 or 4 different special release shades of the Pillow Talk lipstick with a pencil and something else, I can't remember what though, for about $25... So, they do have Christmas specials and I feel like the price tag on the calendar can be beat of you find their Christmas sets. I absolutely love her lipsticks, well worth the price and I tried her pillow talk pallet finally over the summer on sale for $40. Lol, being ya know, broke in this economy, 😂 I think you can absolutely do better price wise if you are good at sale hunting and patient enough to wait. Her products are Def worth the price, but also worth the wait when it goes on sale or they have special releases 😊

    Anyone else remember the girl last year who had an advent calendar from either Chanel or Dior and she was getting just the candle lid on some of the days and I think she even got a hair clip one day too. This Dior one is reminding me of that.

    Not Dior calling you because low key deep down they actually know their advent calendar is a financial scam and they just wanna make sure you won't back out and buy the items individually instead. 😂 I can't believe the different of actual cost vs. advent calendar! That's a wild profit margin (on things that probably already have a wild profit margin to begin with)!
