Tote-ally awesome advent calendar

A great part of Christmas each year is the customary advent calendar, the ultimate countdown to Christmas day. Why not mix it up this year and make your own? Using our Pinnacle Storage Totes, you can fill each box with anything from chocolates to hardware accessories and everything in between. It’s the perfect way to get creative with daily surprises and super simple to make with all the products available from your local Bunnings.

And, once Christmas is over, you can re-use the totes in your garage or shed to store and organise fasteners, parts and all the other bits and pieces you’ve got lying around.
