Managed to bag a £10 Starbucks voucher with a £10 Superdrug spend last Wednesday when clicking the link with vouchercodes.

At 11am each Wednesday they have their windfall Wednesday, some weeks better than others. Hoping tomorrow’s will be good, usually posted on hukd earlier in the morning.

This is coming up later this month, see dates at bottom of pic

Well over priced but really nice advent calendar of BBQ spices.

Can you get a crate/2 crates that hold 24, and then wrap up a selection of beers/miniatures?
Someone also mentioned a wine one the other day.

This ones a bit boring, but a tenner.

He isn't very adventurous with beers so I don't want to risk a selection to then find out he doesnt like them, and it feels a bit boring if I just get a crate of Peroni as his advent calendar
I'll have a look at some miniatures though, that could be a good idea to go with some 'safe beers'


Yes I saw the technic one earlier but it was the contents that made me tempted to do my own.

Thanks

Whilst I'm actually participating for once, has anyone seen any good advent calendars for men? Or at least gender neutral!

Discovered my OH has bought me (I'm assuming me, otherwise he is in lots of trouble and I'm having it anyway :rotfl:) the boots advent calendar so now feel I can't get him his usual chocolate one. Choice seems pretty poor for blokes.
Beer ones aren't any good for him and the whisky ones are a tad more expensive than i was looking at, plus I'd be too keen to help get through that one.

Tempted to make my own unless anyone has seen anything special?

This is supposed to be in A, as of yesterday. Not seen in my local but hoping to get one for my DH. Cheese advent calendar for £8

Thanks I'll have a proper look in the morning. Could be win win if he decides to test the new ingredients out each day!

If you did wrapped minatures, this could be a nice holder.
