12 Days of Christmas advent calendar FAIL!

Post by Lovely Rita »

Looks like Zoella's latest product isn't too popular. Apparently the gifts behind the doors are cheap tat, one of them is a bag of glitter. A BAG OF FREAKIN' GLITTER! Also a pen and a notebook :roll: And a few other bits of shite - the two candles are the only decent gifts.

Retailing at £50. Hmmm, Zoe what happened to you caring about product quality and value for money, eh? The reviews are pretty funny as are the pathetic attempts at gifts.

50 bloody quid, for that money I want caviar, jewellery and Chris Hemsworth holding a bottle of champagne behind those doors.

Also seen on the Boots website a beanie hat and coffee flask gift set for £18. Honestly if you buy this rubbish you deserve to be ripped off.

The stuff inside isn’t even worth half the price ??? How could they put this on the market?

I get that the retailers make the price points...but as a product creator, if you don’t like the price point of YOUR product, why would you not contact the retailer immediately??? Sometimes Zoe confuses me.

I think the bit I don’t understand is how she can brazen out all the furore about this. She has no shame!

Her reaction and explanation was so average. I hope parents stop supporting her. Their salaries are literally her salary.

Me too, the reviews went IN on how bad it was :/. I think had it been cheaper, it wouldn't have been such a big deal, but that was a waste of money for a lot of people.

Boots have already officially responded it wasn't their decision how much it cost. They tweeted it after Zoe tried to shift blame on them :rofl:

I was just about to say didn't she state in a video that she didn't choose the price and it was boots that did?
