Advent calendars - doors on or off? (self.ukcasual)

Curious as to what others do once they've opened their advent calendar for the day, take the door off, leave it open, close it, or something else entirely?

Personally, I've always removed them, along with the foil inside the door, looks neater and it's easier to find subsequent days. Others don't seem to agree with me on this one though, so I'll be interested to see what you fine folk think.

They've made it into a competition. The winner is the one with the best daily gifts.

This year it's Barbie Vs Military Men (a cheap calender of generic 3⅐ inch army men and accessories.)

The other set is Only Fools & Horses Vs Woozle Google (A German science show for children)

They've been doing it for several years. One year was the official Dr Who advent calendar Vs Star Trek. Considering these were deluxe expensive sets, some of the gifts were terrible.
