Bonne Maman advent calendars are known for their delicious jam samples, and they sell out like crazy among our readers each year. And this year, Bonne Maman released another limited-edition calendar for the season.

Despite the $44.99 retail price, Bonne Maman calendars still usually sell out fast. But you’re smarter than that. There’s no reason you have to pay full price for anything, including these popular calendars. So, before you run out and grab the 2023 calendar’s new flavors and design, you’ll want to see how we beat MSRP on this one.

You can buy the Bonne Maman 2023 Advent Calendar on Amazon for $44.99. If you’re an Amazon Prime member, you can get free shipping, which is always a plus. Or, buy it on the Bonne Maman website for the same price. However, you will have to pay for shipping. Standard shipping starts at $16.95. Not the best idea.

You can buy it at World Market for $44.99. But right now, World Market members can save 10% with free in-store pickup with promo code STORE10. That means you can get the calendar for $40.49.

And, if you open a World Market Credit Card*, you could get 20% off on your first purchase. This means with the 20% store pick-up savings plus the 20% off, you can bring the price down to $31.49. Of course, this is only suggested if you’re a regular World Market shopper and would actually benefit from the card perks (like cash back on every $1 spent). But it’s not worth signing up for a one-time purchase.

Costco has a 12-day Bonne Maman calendar for $16.

While our team was out hunting for Costco deals, we spotted a smaller version of the calendar on display. It only features 12 days of samples, but that brings the price down by $29. When you do the math, you’re paying $1.33 per day. Note that this is an in-store-only deal.

This option is the same as Costco’s, but it retails for $15.98 instead of their price of $15.99. But the cost per day still comes out to $1.33.

Here’s Why the Bonne Maman 2023 Advent Calendar Is Worth It

Even though the Bonne Maman 2023 Advent Calendar is not on sale, we think it’s worth the purchase. After all, it comes with 23 miniature spreads, which means each one is less than $2. (They come out to be $1.96 a spread.) Plus, it comes with one miniature honey pot, which means it technically comes with 24 products, making each one a total of $1.87. And according to Bonne Maman, each jam has a shelf life of two years. So you can enjoy them long past the holidays.

If you want to try a bunch of different jams, it’s a good way to get a sample, but it’s not cheaper than the regular price of jam. For example, you can get a 13-oz jar of Bonne Maman Four Fruit Preserves at Walmart for $6.18, which ends up being 47.5 cents per ounce (75% cheaper!).
