I love this company but honestly I think I would have been very disappointed with this advent calendar if I’d bought it as a gift for myself. I only liked the pencil case/ pouch and the notebook. The to do list pad was ok and so was the ruler and stickers😢, but other than that I would not have been happy. Thanks for sharing with us though, you made the video fun anyway lol.
In my opinion it’s definitely overpriced. For something labelled a stationary calendar it’s lacking stationary items I would expect to find in any such calendar. There are no pens, pencils, stamps or stencils ect.. For me all though it may be good quality it is mostly stickers and small paper items in essentially the same design. I think any stationary calendar that doesn’t have pens in it and a main item (normally a higher priced special item left for the last calendar day) for close to $200 after tax is shocking. I’m glad it bought u joy opening it and that is a big part of any gift and that does add value but if u take that feeling away and actually look at the items, not the brand the items if u was to go to a local store where u can buy stickers and paper items u would get far more things that are also similar quality and cute design for far cheaper. I really don’t understand why they didn’t include a nice pen (maybe a fountain pen) as door number 25 and they could have put a set of maybe 4 gel pens in another door and a little stamp set instead of socks or the plushie. I have seen multiple stationary calendars be opened over the recent few days and each of them have included these types of items as it adds value but also they are essential stationary items u expect to find in this kind of calendar unless otherwise stated in the advertising of the product. I’m from UK and we have been doing Christmas calendars for several decades so I know I’m fortunate enough to be from somewhere where there’s a large variety of calendars. I have learned recently that USA are relatively new to Christmas calendars in general (apparently some areas had the occasional calendar here or there) but this year over the last couple weeks I have watched many USA based TH-camrs open a variety of calendars so I can see u guys are getting more of a variety of them however I do think based on the newness of it for many people I think the excitement of it can make it seem more valuable than some of these calendars are. I’m so happy for u that it was worth it to u but for me there are others I’ve seen available in USA that are half the price with a more varied selection and quality items that fits my idea of what should be in ur average stationary calendar. The house box it came in was great and could be reused it seems this year there are many companies giving a nice outer packaging but not being as generous with the contents of the calendar. Take care.
What a fun video! I’m definitely use your code if I decide to get it. :)
Thank you so much for watching and I'm so glad you enjoyed the video! Please let me know if you end up getting one 🎄

I was surprised that the box exclude pens. a pen could have been stuck in there with the ruler. also day 25, included 4 gel pens with the plushy.
