Effol and effex is a German company and in Germany, adventcalendars end at the 24th since that’s our main day of Christmas celebration and the day we open our presents. I am German and grew up there and was confused when US calendars had a 25th box after moving here 😂 but that explains that confusion. And yes bonbons are hard candy’s and in that flavor basically cough drops. Meant for people however same as mints you could feed them to your horse and it gives them minty breath! My horse in Germany loved them!
I definitely prefer the Effol and Effax to the Horse and Style. Some of the stuff are cute in the H&S, but the stickers...? And gift cards are a pain to redeem and always involve spending more than you might want, and at least shipping.... But I would love to see some different brands.... Looking forward to more long content here on UA-cam! ❤🐴
@ every year sth different, last year a saddle pad!!! I’m excited for next year and every year there are different things in it. I’m buying it the 4th year in a row and nothing ever repeated
I feel like subscription boxes saved up for christmas is more worth your money than these advent calendars.... 😅.. more valuable things and more space in the box to have actual valuable things vs scamming you with 4 treats in a bag instead of an actual full bag of treats 😅just my opinion. Be excited for what you get.. thats a lot of money for a company to half ass gift you things.
I feel like advent calendars should be either useful or genuinely nice clothing or tack or grooming tool maybe for the horse... but to include cardboard ornaments is like they ran out of ideas and is scammy to me... they may sell for 15 dollars but it took only 2 bucks to actually make it :/ get more things everyone would like, vs things that are hit or miss like a small painting by someone you don't even know🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️ It could've been better and worth the money, but seems lazy, quick money grab on the companies part....
Yes to doing this again next year 😊

@@rebeccarose7405 ugh I’ve already spent more on the gift cards 🤦♀️
You should try the Horsebrands advent calendar and btw the lip balm isn’t for horses, it’s for people (white/yellow package)
@@elisabethvarkentin9601 I saw they gave a full halter in that one 😍 def trying next year

Maybe I’ll have to try these! Do you have any reccs on which brands have good boxes?
