Not sure where they get £160 from, off the top of my head, I'd reckon there is just over a £100's worth of stuff there?

Bargain? Narp

But probably decent enough value for the manic golfer in the house. I suppose I'd use most things except the handwarmers & winter tees

No. I don't think any of these gift type advent calendars are worth it. Looked at a gin one. Was about 60quid, woukd be much better off just getting your self a couple of bottles of your favourites. Such bad value

A classic rubbish golf gift at Christmas. Tale as old as time. About 4 useful things and a bunch of stuff you could buy for 2 or 3 quid if you wanted them.

The gift voucher and balls alone equal about 50 quid retail so its 30 for the other bits and bobs and packing etc with the value of 24 x daily seasonal ‘fun’ element for the recipient. Overall its not overpriced, but not a bargain

of course golfers would rather have 2/3 doz of xyz ball instead pls... but that's not what its trying to replace. This is supposed to be on top of you getting a couple of boxes of balls and a shirt, cap etc etc etc on the 25th

I think it’s not really an interesting gift. If someone knows you they could make up a mixed goody bag of fun stuff .. I did a Fortnum and Masons hamper for my wife. I picked stuff she liked and built it up like that .. she really liked it and as she routed about and pulled stuff out it was all met with an “oooo” .

Just like Black Friday 'deals', an opportunity shift a load of unsold tat.

I prefer when they do a generic amount of money off anything

I picked up 2 new hybrids £125 each because they had £12 off each one as they were over £100 (already £10 cheaper than elsewhere)
