'The Right Stuff' Advent calendars for foodies, beauty icons and more
We're counting down to Christmas.
To help celebrate, "Good Morning America" lifestyle contributor Lori Bergamotto is shopping for the best countdown calendars, from the one best suited for foodies to a limited-edition calendar for beauty lovers. There's also a stationary Advent calendar, another filled with surprises for kids, and more.
Remember that these calendars make great presents, too, so opt for one for a housewarming gift or for celebrating a friend's fall birthday.
If you see a calendar you love, act fast -- Advent and countdown calendars often sell out quickly.
