Ah sorry I must have been mistaken then :whistle:

And that edit was just for fixing a small typo, right?

But in all seriousness, nice mirror :)

Can't wait for tomorrow's surprise. All I have are three IKEA advent calendars and those are really boring :)

Day 9: Emergency blanket

Another standard survival item. I noticed this is the 2nd BCB international item, a UK based company. Anyone know about them?

Day 10: piece of wire

Another quality item :P, now the average is below expectation... but who can be sad if the future X-mas present arrives and even the box is this pretty :D
Ok, in all fairness, that flashlight costs as much as the calendar

Day 11 - Key Smart

First item I have no idea how it is supposed to help me survive... but it might help them survive as this is a gateway drug to longer screws, more colorful sides and other accessories they sell :P

Welcome aboard Zoids...

Day 12: Matches
They work... that is about the only good thing I can say about those... considering that a regular pack of matches is about 50ct in Switzerland they put all stops and really invested in finding the cheapest... :hatsoff: well played

In the beginning I was wondering what cool item I would find today in the calendar... now I'm at a point where I wonder if they can top the previous days disappointment... today, once more, they succeeded

Day 13: Garbage

Matches, no matter how cheap, I can use... but this... I lack words to describe it, but there is no other use than throwing it away. I just hope that does not take the spot of the Flashlight/Knife :ahhh
Thought I could have some fun with it before I dump it. Holding it with 2 fingers I managed to destroy all tools... the flat round weirdly shaped thingy (cap lifter+ screwdriver maybe?) took the worst. Not sure what the triangular thing is supposed to be, but it is too blunt to open letters. Direct contact with a Classic Blade (which is still pristine) resulted in some serious dents and it works poorly as pry-tool :P, maybe I can keep the keyring.
Would recommend :tu:

Had they made the light-button red... it would look like a well known reindeer.

Day 14: Rite in the Rain Notepad

Sweet, wanted one of these for a long time... there was also pencil and a sheet of plasticy paper (no idea what this is for). Perfect for shower-thoughts:

"A ton of people is literally 12-15 people"

"DO NOT TOUCH" would probably be a really unsettling thing to read in braille.

"When people think about travelling to the past, they worry about accidentally changing the present, but no one in the present really thinks they can radically change the future."

"If Google matched people up by their browsing history, it could be the greatest online dating website of all time."

"The Swiss must have been pretty confident in their chances of victory if they included a wine bottle corkscrew on their army knife."

Day 17: Foldable water bottle

No label, no marking, so I had to measure, it holds 0.35l. Handy item. I had some concerns about the mouth-piece, but filling it up and putting preassure on the bottle did not produce a fail :tu:
