Yesterday I looked at one of the largest Advent calendars on the market. Today, I'm looking at 2 which boast being the smallest Advent calendars ever made.
First up is from the UK on a website called Allbranded. They sell what they call 'The World's Smallest (Advent) Calendar'. About the size of a credit card, it's essentially a blister pack of 24 individually wrapped candies. On the flat side, there's an image of 2 leaping reindeer with numbers 1-24 randomly printed on the image. Each day, you find the corresponding number, pop open the wrapper and enjoy a single flavor of candy, randomly inserted. Once again, there's no prize for making it to day 25. But for an MSRP of £1.28 per Advent, it way cheaper than the Lindt calendar found in European Costcos.
Oh, did I forget to mention that you have to buy these in bundles of 1000? That's right! It'll cost you a minimum £1280.00 for an order.
Another contender for the tiniest Advent calendar in the world is from a company called In a Matchbox. They pride themselves in making extremely small gifts that fit inside a standard matchbox in hopes of reducing the cost of shipping on the buyer. Their 'The World's Smallest Advent Calendar in a Matchbox' contains 24 magic door decorations for a Christmas tree. The fun behind these cardboard ornaments are to guess which beloved fairy tale and holiday character is being represented on the front. Open the door to each character's home and a short poem provides another clue to the mystery character.
Small golden ribbons are included so you can make a loop on which to hang on your tree, this Advent sells for $20 and offers free shipping on all UK orders.
From my Batman Advent calendar, I received a pair of card stock Holiday ornaments. One depicts Robin falling while attempting to decorate a Christmas tree. The other has Batman slipping on some ice while ice skating. I'll probably make both into magnets...
