I was in Costco the other day and saw the viral Lindt Chocolate Advent Calendar. I LOVE Lindt Chocolate. It's around 5 feet tall and yes $249.99 CDN. So of course I didn't buy one. One, I am diabetic, and two, I have no room for those extra calories; but boy would I love to eat one of those!!!
We were at Ikea this week and I picked up this advent calendar for myself. At $14.99 that seemed reasonable. I am not an expert on Scandinavian chocolate, so it'll be interesting to see what it tastes like.
Do you buy an advent calendar for yourself, and if so which one do you get? I am going to pass this year. I do enjoy the regular Lindt one though.

I have collected the empty one ounce jam jars with red gingham pattern lids, with permission, from the garden centre coffee shop. For Advent treats I shall fill them with dried fruits and nuts from the pantry, apricot, crystallised ginger, dates, etc. The first will contain cloves to push into an orange make the Christmas pomander which scents the room as it dries.
I don't usually buy myself a chocolate advent calendar but I've just come home from a weekend stitching retreat and one of our gifts was a cadbury advent calendar so I'll enjoy opening that. I've had yarny advent calendars in the past, saves on the calories :-)
I don’t buy one for myself, but my daughter gets a Harry Potter one every year.
