B&M is selling a Pringles advent calendar that is so popular it is selling for double the price on eBay
FROM gin to cheese, gone are the days of opening an advent calendar to reveal a small square of chocolate.
And now B&M is selling an advent calendar full of Pringles, that is so popular, they are going for double the price on eBay.
The bargain retailer launched the £7.99 calendar earlier this month that comes with 40g tubs of the crisps, counting down the 12 days to Christmas.
The tubs come in Pringles' best-loved flavours including salt and vinegar, Texas BBQ sauce, original and sour cream and onion.
But shoppers have found it difficult to get their hands on one of the unusual calendars with B&M reporting that they are selling quickly and that many stores only have limited stock left.
And it appears that some people are so desperate to snap up the calendars they have been turning to eBay, where one is selling for the price of £18.99.
B&M told the Sun Online: "We’re the only retailer on the high street to stock this product.

"We knew it would be popular but we didn’t expect it to start selling out across the country this quickly – people can’t get their hands on them fast enough.”
