LEGO Harry Potter Advent Calendar: WAS £24 NOW £15 | Argos (opens in new tab)

Lego Star Wars Advent Calendar: WAS £30 NOW £24 | Argos (opens in new tab)
You really can't beat a Lego advent calendar. Yes, they're expensive but the value for money is off the charts because kids play with (and keep) the LEGO trinkets from inside forever. Or at least until you step on them in bare feet and banish them to a cupboard.

Yes, more LEGO options, but Marvel fans will be glad that we included this. The hardest choices require the strongest wills, as Thanos said.
LEGO Friends Advent Calendar: WAS £22 NOW £17.60 | Argos (opens in new tab)
Ok, just one more. Look at the price! With 24 Christmas-themed LEGO mini-build toys inside, this works out at... well, very cheap per toy.
Encanto Advent Calendar - NOW £39.99 | Disney (opens in new tab)
We don't talk about Bruno but we should talk about how brilliant this Encanto advent calendar is.

There's also a final surprise to look forward to on the last day!
Peppa Pig's Advent Calendar - WAS £19.99 NOW £14.99 | Lego (opens in new tab)

Disney Advent Calendar - 12 Socks of Christmas: WAS £30 NOW £20.10 | Boots (opens in new tab)
Ok, we lied, there are no toys in this one. But it's fun as well as practical. And nobody can ever have too many socks. Especially at Christmas!
