The "Christmas" Calendar (AKA the Advent Calendar) and What You Should Pay For Them- Check out the Advent calendars for 2020 and what bargains are available

 

The advent calendar, also known by some as The Christmas Calendar, has been around since the 1850 and were typically used to count down to December 25th.  Now we have advent calendars that count to Halloween and other holidays as well.

For all the Harry Potter fans this is a must have advent calendar!  In 2019 we saw a shortage of this particular product if you wanted it in time to use it in it’s intended manner.  So I wouldn’t wait if this is a must have item for you!  Last year the lowest price we saw if you wanted this before December 1st was around $35.  Do NOT pay above $40.

This Friends TV Show Advent Calendar is a new product for 2020!  We don’t have any price history or previous years for me to give you some direction on what to pay.  There is no way to know if they will run out of stock.   I would guess if you want it grab it now.  I am betting there is a holiday armadillo in that box.

2019 was the first year for the Disney Storybook Collection Advent Calendar (24 Books) and it has rave reviews, both from my readers and online.  Inside each calendar you find 24 Disney books you can read all year long.  Based on 2019 prices if you find this under $23 I would grab it.

If you order it before it’s release date (projected 10/6/20) you will be able to take advantage of the Amazon Pre-Price Guarantee.  If the price drops between now and when it ships you get it at the lowest price!

If the price is too high you might be able to grab the Disney: Storybook Collection Advent Calendar 2019 at a lower price.

The scheduled release date for this calendar is sometime in September 2020.  The retail price will be $29.99 but don’t pay that!  Based on previous year’s sales (and ten years of me watching them) I would say look for $24 and under.

If you don’t want to wait you could grab a previous year’s LEGO Friends Advent Calendar.  There shouldn’t be anything date specific on it.  I have found with these LEGO sets some become collectible so grabbing a past year’s set may not be a money saver.

The scheduled release date for this calendar is sometime in September 2020.  Based on last year’s prices I think you can grab it under $30 with good timing but don’t pay over $34.
