What advents are you missing this year?

Any, usually good, advents that we're missing this year so we can keep an eye out for them?
Notable ones for me are
BeoPlay
Heart Radio
Hexus
Barbour
Hermes
Ryobi Tools
T3
I'll mention Scottish Widows and Hunt the Haggis 'cause everyone's always bangin' on about them
The Debenhams Beauty club always seems to come up too (but I seem to remember that was a late starter last year).

BlackCircles was a good one, as far as prizes but man, it was a pain with all the RT's, pretty sure I get a Twitter ban every year from that one.0

Isn't there one on Heart? I've been entering... This one https://win.heart.co.uk/christmas/index.php?locid=ken&utm_source=heart&utm_medium=podlink&utm_campaign=christmas0

That's the one! ... it's exactly the same.
Not sure how I missed this but I would assume a lot of people must have missed it 'cause I haven't noticed any posts in the Advents over £100 thread ... actually, I don't think it's been posted on here?
I'm second guessing myself 'cause I can't believe this hasn't been posted on here and assuming that I just can't find a thread?
Looking at that Heart comp, if you go back to : https://win.heart.co.uk/christmas/index.php
It asks you to choose a location, which are Cambridgeshire, Chelmsford, Kent or Peterborough ... so you might only be eligible in those counties (I can't be bothered to check the terms )0 -

I was thinking that I hadn't seen that one.
Also, the STABILO one, STHIL (the chainsaw company)
And I still do miss the Haggis Hunt. That one was a lot of fun.
It really isn't the same now. It's still fun in a twisted sort of way, but there are a lot missing now, and some of the prizes are a bit naff.
Never mind, we are still daft enough to do them. :rotfl:

The molton brown Christmas comp - not so much an advent but a really fun comp
I remember eons ago when BBC used to run advent comps - one for every area"Every time you feel yourself getting pulled into someone else's nonsense, tell yourself: Not my circus, not my monkeys." - Mark Borkowski.

Sorry for not checking. I should have, I just assumed it was already listed.0
