FESTIVE MUMMAS I Advent Calendars For Us

So we did a round up of the best kids advent calendars a couple of weeks ago -
have a read of it here, if you've not yet bought one.

But what about us?!

For me, Christmas is about the build up, counting the days down, getting the tree up and making the house all Christmassy. By Boxing Day I'm over it, and ready to pack it away in the loft for another year.

So what better way to count down to the big day than with one of these fab grown up advent calendars?

Nail varnish advent calendar now £15

Hotel Chocolat Truffles for Two £26

First up, how about this cute nail polish advent calendar from Accessorize It's now half price at £15. It looks like it's sold out online, so check your local store. Accessorize also have 30% off selected items as part of their Black Friday weekend.

This is a perfect couples advent calendar (although you don't have to share!). This scrummy grown ups advent calendar has flavours like mulled wine and cinnamon praline.

This is available from Hotel Chocolat. They also have 20% off for Black Friday...with some yummy selection boxes that'd make great Christmas gifts...and let's face it, they're better than a box of Milk Tray.

Or to get the house smelling lovely and festive, Yankee Candle are doing an advent calendar with a different scented tealight everyday. This is £20 and available from Boots. Yankee Candle themselves have a selection of other gorgeous calendars to choose from.

SAVVY MUMMAS | Black Friday Beauty

Black Friday madness has already begun. I thought I would beat the crowds and shop online but that too is proving a nightmare what with pages of 'refreshing' and even online queuing. As the focus seems the be on TVs and electrical goods I wasn't feeling the excitement like others, however there are bargains in other departments to be had.

One of the best beauty sales we've come across is at Tesco, you can save a third on selected fragrance gift sets, (always a winner for Christmas presents) and as the discount is on right up until 23rd December there should be no fighting in the beauty aisle!
