How to choose the best advent calendar The first thing you need to consider if you’re on the hunt for the best advent calendar 2023 has to offer, is who you’re buying for. Is it yourself, your partner, friend, child, parent or another family member? What do they like, and what are their interests? Do they love gourmet chocolates, luxury fragrances or making things? Will they be happy with a chocolate calendar from the supermarket, or would they appreciate the thought behind something a bit different that makes them feel special? Then you need to think about how much you’ll spend. What’s your budget, and does the calendar you’re looking at represent great value? No matter what you’re spending, you’ll want to get something that comes in nice packaging that looks and feels like it’s good quality.
