I bought the Olive & June 12 Days of Mani Magic ~Shine Edition~ advent calendar from Walgreens so you don’t have to!
I first saw it on shelves on 10/31 at a southern Indiana Walgreens store. It doesn’t show up on the Walgreens website and I haven’t seen them in other stores yet. Not sure if it’s a store exclusive. I paid $49.99(usd) for this item.
This calendar includes:
2 mini Long-Lasting polishes (Obvi, Midnight)
2 mini Quick Dry polishes (Martini Chrome, Mulberry)
1 set Red Chrome French with Puffy Bow Instant Mani Press-ons (medium, almond)
1 set Candy Swirl Super Stick Press-ons (short, round)
4 sets of 6 nail art stickers
1 mini purple polish nail file
1 bow shaped nail file
The front of the packing indicates an additional nail buffer and set of stickers are included. I don’t see those in the packaging tray, so I think they are counting the buffer that comes with the Instant Mani nail set and the glue tabs from the super stick mani set as stickers. Strange choice, but oh well!

Y’all remember when $50 was a lot of money?
Damn.
Including the buffer from the nail set as a separate item is one thing, but…including the glue tabs in the sticker count? First of all, it specifically says “nail art stickers” – press-on nails are not generally considered nail art, and glue tabs on their own are definitely not. Second of all, the “super stick mani” would not be a super stick mani without the glue tabs, so you can’t reasonably separate the two in an itemized count like that.
The chill part of me doesn’t want to get hung up on something like nail stickers, but the part of me that loves semantics and dislikes Olive & June wants to tell you to file a complaint. Unless you’re missing something (which I doubt since the listed items add up to 14, not 12) it seems like pretty clear-cut false advertising to me.
