Nomos you just sign up which gives you a chance to win - no purchase necessary

I've never quite understood what an advent calendar is, I must admit.

Really? Something to open every day up until Christmas - these days typically full of crap hersheys type chocolate.

[is that my watch]

well before the chocolate company's took it over ( and not just chocolate company's )

the advent calendar was latin for the coming ...supposedly this was Jesus coming in to the world and Christians use the four Sundays and weeks of Advent to prepare and remember the real meaning of Christmas..

one of the reason I hate Christmas the true means is gone and it's just full of greed .gluttony , selfishness

That's really all it is? There's no, like, special thing about them? I first heard about them in Bad Santa, but I didn't know they were a real thing.

Ah, that makes sense. Very different from the one my friend sent me, which has naked ladies in it.
