Free shipping!
We will attempt to have orders delivered 1 - 3 days before the date you requested but due to the nature of the shipping during the pandemic and holiday season, may be unable to deliver on the precise day you select. Advent calendars will be delivered in the month of November prior to Thanksgiving regardless of the delivery date that you select. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Can I order multiple boxes going to multiple places in the same order?
If you are ordering fewer than five boxes, we encourage you to create a separate order for each box being ordered. This allows you to receive an individual tracking number for each order.
If you are buying five or more boxes going to multiple addresses, you can purchase them in one order. Once you receive your confirmation, please forward it to us with the shipment details for each box. Please include the recipient names, mailing addresses, and gift messages for each box. We will handle the rest to ship it out for you.
Do you offer international shipping, or shipping to Hawaii and Alaska?
We do offer shipping to Hawaii and Alaska, though there will be an extra charge at checkout to ship to these states.
Unfortunately, we do not offer international shipping. It’s a little too much for us to manage and do well! We encourage you to have your order delivered to you and then ship it overseas on your own. To help you calculate postage if you choose to ship internationally yourself, our advent boxes weigh 6 lbs with dimensions of 21” high x 14” wide x 4” deep.
Do you offer expedited shipping?
If you need us to ship your order right away, just shoot us an email and we'll make sure to put you at the front of the shipping list.
Gifting

Yes! You can add a gift message at checkout. If you’re unable to add a message at checkout for any reason, email us your order number and gift message and we'll add the message for you.
Will the price be printed on the packaging slip?
No. We know many of these orders are gifts, so we never show prices anywhere in the shipping materials.
General Questions

If you want us to hold the purchase and ship it at a later date, please send us an email and we’ll do our best to accommodate you.
Shipping
When will my items ship?
Orders placed by Monday, November 21 will ship by Thanksgiving. U.S. delivery takes 2-5 days depending on the destination.

My husband and I received this fun Christmas Delicious Minnesota Advent 2022 Calendar as a gift from my sister Judy who lives in Minnesota. We were like kids excited finding a treasure each day during the month of December. This gift was special to us because we both grew up in Minnesota and meet in high school. My husband served in the Navy for 21 years and we traveled to many places throughout the years. Minnesota is where we always called home. This gift brought back many wonderful memories as we took turns opening the doors to the items by alternating the odd and even days. We especially like the food (chocolate) and seeing where each item was made in Minnesota. We are retired now and living in Maryland and married for 50 years in May 2023. This Advent Calendar I can say was one of the top 10 gifts we ever received. It brought a part of Minnesota to us this past year and truly added to our Christmas joy.
WOW - thank you SO MUCH for your kind words. We are thrilled to know that this box was so special to your family and so many others. We're glad that we could bring just a bit of home to you every day leading up to the holidays!!
We purchased this as a gift for my parents who have everything! They LOVED it! They called or sent a text every day to tell us what that days' treat was and where it was from. They enjoyed researching each company and learning more about them as well.
Definitely a gift worth purchasing for someone who has everything!
Wow! What a heartwarming story of parents and their children staying in touch over the holiday season - your parents sharing their enjoyment of each days' treat in the Delicious Minnesota Advent Calendar! And it is also rewarding to us is that they enjoyed the products so much they took the time to learn more about each Minnesota business that provided an item for the calendar. Many thanks for your purchase!
Every day my MIL sent me a picture of the treats she received. There was enough for both of them to have a treat.
How sweet that your in-laws shared with you each day the delicious treat they found in their Delicious Minnesota Advent Calendar! It's a lovely way to enjoy the holiday spirit. Thanks so much for your purchase and support of local businesses in Minnesota.
I made my first purchase as small gift for Christmas. My order did not meet the threshold for delivery, and I called to get more information. Theresa was absolutely wonderful! She made an exception so my gift could be delivered, and took the time to walk me through the ordering process. Thank you!
Thank you for your very kind comments. Not only do we take great pride in the quality of products we include from local businesses but in customer satisfaction and service as well. Your purchase and support of Minnesota businesses are appreciated.
I loved each new day to open and it was so tasty you experience different foods around the state.
Thank you for your purchase. We are pleased that you enjoyed the variety of foods from local businesses in the Delicious Minnesota Advent Calendar.
