Fans
of tiny little beauty products or miniature candles are well catered for, but what about the nerds, hmm?

I've had a good old hunt around for what I think are the best nerd-friendly Advent calendars you can buy. Lego's advent calendars are an established annual delight, but I discovered that Funko Pop also makes a wide range of calendars with dinky figurines to suit various fixations. There are calendars for stationery addicts , Japanophiles , and puzzle-breakers . While snack preferences can transcend social groups, I couldn't ignore the appeal of 12 days of artisan cheese (and associated condiments), nor the lure of Red
Bull's Advent calendar variety pack . The latter contains a standard can for each of the 24 days leading up to Christmas although it's perhaps advisable to spread out the drinking a bit more than that.
