Non chocolate advent fillers

I_<3_Christmas

Hi Cherry24

A few suggestions
-Christmas shaped hot chocolate (melted chocolate poured into a mould - had these in the £1 stores last year, with attached instructions add 3 shapes and milk to a mug and microwave for ... minutes
-Reindeer food (oats and sugar to sprinkle on Christmas eve)
-Grinch pills (using apple tic tacs)
-Snowman poop (mint tic tacs or white marshmallows)

Hope this helps

When I did this for my fianc! two years ago I included a small chocolate and a paper chain strip with something I loved about him written on it. We then linked the paper chain together each day.

You could think of 24/25 things you loved about him....wow, i would struggle after three....lol,,,anyhoo back to original poster - sexy thong, magic flannel, hankies in the shape of bank notes, tiny earphones.

Fab! Unfortunately, my fabric advent calendar won't stretch to fit beer in.

I don't really have any suggestions to add to what everyone's already said but thank you for posting this thread, you've inspired me to make an advent calendar for my boyfriend

Spendless

I bought iscreen wipes for my DD last year, as she is worse than a toddler for getting sticky prints on her ipod etc. They were 79p in B&M.

I've been searching and found some more ideas

Small candle (my boyfriend loves Yankee candles and the really small ones are only £1-2)
Socks (maybe some nice festive ones!)
Tie (if he wears them)
Fudge
IOU massage voucher with a little bottle of oil included
If he's a foodie then little packets of honey/jam/nutella/marmite
Kitchen accessories like an ice cream scoop or milk foamer
Mulled wine sachet/ingredients to make your own
Candy canes
Gingerbread (maybe in a cute shape like a heart)
Bookmark
Lego figure (depends how childish he is...my boyfriend still loves Lego )
Mistletoe
Underwear

I'll keep thinking
