Sex Toy Advent Calendar Will Help You 'Ding Dong Merrily' All The Way To Christmas

'Christmas is the friskiest time of the year.'

If you think you’ve seen all the world has to offer in terms of alternative advent calendars, think again.

You can now buy a calendar packed with 24 “sexy surprises” from sex toy retailer Lovehoney.

The calendar comes complete with enough items to help couples “ding dong merrily” throughout the festive season.

The sequence of gifts has been choreographed to build up erotic tension, with the promise of a “mind-blowing finale” just before Christmas Day.

Sex toys included in the bumper box include a love ring, bullet vibrator and male stroker.

Bondage gear includes a satin blindfold, restraints, tickler, wrist cuffs, gag and nipple clamps.

The calendar also includes a limited edition of the £49.99 Desire Vibrator, which was voted the world’s best sex toy by Good Housekeeping magazine earlier this year.

The box includes all the batteries you’ll possibly need, but the makers do recommend you stock up on water-based lubricant before trying out some of the treats.

Lovehoney product director Bonny Hall said: “Our research shows that Christmas is the friskiest time of the year for couples.

“We have carefully picked the very best products available from Lovehoney for people to enjoy in the build up to the big day.

“The Big Box of Sexual Happiness is our way of saying thank you to our customers and spreading some Christmas joy. We can’t think of anything we’d rather see in our stockings.”

The 24 mystery sex gifts are worth £240 if purchased separately, but the bumper box is being sold for half the price at £120.
