Question for people living in the UK
Here is my quandry. I read on TORN that Cadbury in the UK was making a ROTK advent calendar, similar to the one they made last year for TTT. I went back to One Ring looking for the link but now I can't find it. Then I went to Cadbury and can't find the advent calendar anywhere on their site. I have a store that will import from the UK for me, as they did last year but we can't find any evidence that there is a calendar this year (but I know I saw it on TORN - *whine*).
I was wondering if anyone in the UK has seen the advent calendar or works at a store that will carry them, and if so, was it Cadbury that makes it or was it someone else. Thanks! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

I've seen one in Woolworths, it seemed to be Cadbury's.

Thanks Olorin! I just wanted to make sure I wasn't losing my mind.

I heard somewhere you can get them in Toys R Us too...I don't know. But they definitely do them somewhere!

Really? Return of the King advent calender? I'll have to get me one of those. I always have an advent calender. Highlight of my year [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

From your post office?! Weird...well, I'll have a look around. I wouldn't say the advent calendar is the highlight of my year...that'd be the LOTR easter egg! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I was in Woolworths today, but couldn't find it. And I want it so badly! Any other ideas as to where to look?
