🎁 Day 18: ADVENTures with Noël (Unboxing 5 Advent Calendars 1 Day at a Time) 2024

[@lizhamilton1492]

I have to tell you how much I appreciate your candid remarks about the items you share. So few on the media do that and you do it well. From time to time I see an item differently than you but I do appreciate your viewpont. Refreshing.

[@mauinoel]

Thank you for those kinds words. I try to be honest and fair!

[@karenprinz5987]

Coffee will always be my favorite day!

[@mauinoel]

And this was a good one!

[@bluecobaltsteph2689]

I do like having at least one international calendar and several non-beauty ones. I am really enjoying you unbox Grabie!!!!

[@mauinoel]

I guess I got 50/50 on US and international boxes this year!

[@saraharriola4626]

Cute Sakura candles! I like those and the coffee for today.

[@mauinoel]

Yeah, not super exciting but cute.

[@ellenkroon8444]

Candles and coffee!

[@mauinoel]

Always a good pairing!

[@bluecobaltsteph2689]

I liked the Sakura candles but would USE the hair masks.

[@mauinoel]

Fair enough.

[@southerngirlyall6497]

Cute candles.

[@mauinoel]

Yeah those were sweet.

[@terilee959]

Copper Cow with Peppermint fits the season. Not sure how Ms. Vogue will sit down in that dress or get through the door but I love the artwork on this box.

[@mauinoel]

Oh, I don't think you can sit in any of dresses on the Vogue covers.

[@shelgraham2094]

The coffee sounds SO WONDERFUL!!! I’ll be looking into that company as soon as the video ends! ☕️ I got the Delicious Food Delivered Illinois this year and have enjoyed it, but based on your experience this year with the Route 66, I’m getting that one next year. I take such delight in all the different boxes that I find it’s impossible to pick a favorite box. It’s hard enough to pick my favorite item for this indecisive old gal. 😅

[@mauinoel]

I'm glad that you enjoyed your DFD box though!

[@karenvandersass]

I think the hair mask from Vogue sounds nice as long as it truly doesn't weigh down hair. I've enjoyed Bokksu but think the value is more in the surprise and delight rather than the actual cost of the goods inside. It's been enjoyable to see since it's different than any other advent calendar but I don't know that it would be worth doing a second year.

[@mauinoel]

Yes, that's exactly how I feel about Bokksu, but if they did more lifestyle items without the price going up a lot, I might consider it.

[@sharptongue1190]

Another meh day iMO. I’m going w/the candles today.

[@mauinoel]

Yeah, they're cute.

[@ckidwell1]

Wait, did I miss Rt 66 today?? Cherry blossom candles win, besides the Vogue card. She's headed to a Mardi Gras or Maypole party 😂. Ye olde QR code 😂😂. Liberty, we're onto you!!

[@ckidwell1]

Oh, maybe the coffee. I think I still had Bokksu on the brain.

[@mauinoel]

Yeah, sneaky Liberty!

[@nikimott5354]

My favorite part was the "Liberty, Liberty" commercial 🤣🤣🤣 Sorry, that doesn't say much about today's calendar selections.........

[@mauinoel]

Indeed.

[@cherylbleiler172]

I like the literary book club box so far, and the RT 66 box. I wouldn't mind seeing Grabie again. Vogue has been disappointing and Liberty feels ho hum, having seen it last year.

[@mauinoel]

Yeah, I didn't realize Liberty would feel so repetitive.

[@bombom_c]

Bokksu is very interesting but not worth it IMO😅

[@mauinoel]

Yeah, if there had been more lifestyle items, maybe.

[@danab602]

Not the most exciting day. It's funny that both beauty calendars had a hair mask. You can probably use all the ornament crafts to keep your nieces entertained while you visit with your sister. : )

[@mauinoel]

Exactly...those will probably go in their advent calendar.

[@priscilla.t.a]

I don't really have a favorite today. I really like Copper Cow Coffee, but mostly their original roast. I don't love their flavored coffees so much. I have to admit Grabbie is losing me. Today was pretty disappointing. 🫤

[@mauinoel]

Sadly, it doesn't get much better.
