holiday calendar
Plural: holiday calendars
Now, an Advent calendar will normally have around twenty five doors on it, this one turns it up to eleven. Actually, I guess that would be down to eleven.
In any case, it counts down to all the holidays and doesn't give up just because it has a while left to count.
Moral of the story: this calendar has a three hundred sixty-five and a quarter little doors on it.
Miscellaneous Item
Item cannot be auto-sold
{{#vardefine:consumable|no}}Contains sugar (1)
{{#vardefine:consumable|yes}}
How Obtained
Was given to each player by Kinak as a gift for Christmas 2015. The message said:
Some say the best gift is one you can use every day. Others argue for chocolate. And a few just default to calendars because it's easy.
You can probably see where this is going.
Merry Christmas!
