Wax Luvs Wicks

So it's after the holidays and I have been surfing the two companies (Yankee and B&BW) to see what deals they've been having. I already placed an order with B&BW for some soaps and a few candles. Yankee, however, I waited...as soon as they had a certain amount for 5 or 6. This sale it's 5 for $60.  I picked up some regular candles and ... a Scenterpiece!  Yay!  I am super excited to try out this mess free interchangeable system. I have been putting it off just because I really didn't need to get sucked in to another warmer.  But I love the idea of the cups..no ice to help pop out the wax, no left over fragrance to mix in with another. So many reasons. I am just worried that they will discontinue it. But it's a chance I am willing to take. 

Alright so here’s what I picked up from Yankee!

Jars

6 Shortbread Cookie
2 Oatmeal Cookie
3 Key Lime Pie
2 Lemon Zest
2 Star Fruit and Orange
4 Be Thankful
1 Berry Jam
1 Country Kitchen Line – Chocolate Cake
2 Country Kitchen Line – Fresh Baked Goods

I didn’t go TOO over board …just picked up a lot of shortbread cookie since it’s one of my favorites!  I actually didn’t buy any tarts nor did I pick up any accessories.  There wasn’t much that I wanted this go around.  Did you go to the SAS?   Did you pick up anything?  I am going to head back to the store next week and grab the fall scents to review.

Well after staying up until 3 am and the sale never showed up on the website, I went to sleep.  When I woke up at 6 am the sale was STILL not there!  I was very disappointed.  How can YC have it up right on time last year and this year it was on their own time.  There aren’t any real deals yet, except on accessories. 

The Citrus Passion jar sleeve is only $5!  Just think no more foiling your jars/tumblers. 

Tea light and electric warmers are a pretty good deal too. 

Large jars and tumblers in select scents are $14.

Medium jars and tumblers in select scents are $12.50.

Small jars are $5.50 and small tumblers are $8.

Tea lights are $5.

Swirl candles are $11.50.

Perfect Pillars are $10.

Select Pure Radiance select fragrances 50% off.

Select tarts and samps are a buck.

There are more deals…just check the website or if there is a store near you, stop by.  You might find a scent that was hiding in the treasure cabinet.  Mine didn’t have much..I am going to hold out and see what kind of deliveries my store gets in the next week or so.  I have been checking online frequently.  You never know when a treasure will pop up! I’m trying to stay positive! 

Well I have an update about which scents are going to be on sale during the semi annual sale at Yankee Candle.  These scents will either be a permanent or seasonal retirement.  I found out about these from a friend and I’m not sure if he wants credit or not so I will refrain unless he says something.  I think these are actually on display at the store to let their customers know what might be leaving.

Here’s the scents that I know about so far:

• Beach Flowers
• Blue Hydrangea
• Cherry Lemonade
• Coastal Waters
• Cottage Breeze
• Drift Away
• Early Sunrise
• Garden Hideaway
• Green Grass
• Island Spa
• Juicy Watermelon
• Midnight Oasis
• Oceanside
• Ocean Water
• Orange Dreamsicle
• Pink Blush
• Pink Dragon Fruit
• Storm Watch
• Sweet Honeysuckle
• Sweet Strawberry
• Tahitian Tiaré Flower
• Tulips
• Wild Passion Fruit
• I am also hearing from YC employees that it’s going to be a great sale with lots of deals.  Stay tuned!

If you are enjoying these wonderful spring/summer fragrances from Bath and Body Works, their semi annual sale will be here before you know it!  I hope you are making your list  I am very excited to see that Wild Honeysuckle is on the list to show up and Velvet Tuberose.  I have heard such great things about them and never tried them before.  I will be on the look out for body wash, anti bacterial hand soap, and candles during the SAS.  I like it when I can find three wick candles for $8.  I haven’t seen the price drop below that and if it did it might have been for scents that I didn’t care for.  Some of the candles are marked down 50% off..Paradise Daiquiri, Jungle Kiss, Seaside Escape, Passion Flower, and Drenched Apple Flower.  I don’t know how long that will last so if you like any of those scents, you may want to swing by the store or order online.  They may go back to regular price right before the SAS.

. During the SAS, I usually check the website for random candles too. There has been times when recently discontinued scents pop up on there.

Sale starts June 13th!

I went out and about yesterday to Yankee Candle and Bath & Body Works (oh and Marshall’s too).  It was a crazy mad house in BBW but I got some good deals (even though the flyer said the SAS was on the 27th most of it was already marked down).  I went to the bigger of the two stores since I go to the smaller one all the time I thought it would be best with all the people trying to partake in the SAS.  It was a smart move.  Anyways, here’s the loot!

Twisted Peppermint=\= I am glad I grabbed these!  Since they didn’t sell the body care for very long, I figured this would be good to have in the house for the remainder of winter.

 

 

Marshmallow Fireside=\= Love this scent!!  I bought two boxes, if I like it I will get some more.  I haven’t tried it in the wallflower form yet.  I wish they had the candle since I really enjoyed this…just enough sweet and smoky, truly a marshmallow fireside scent.  I think Slatkin’s fireside is the most authentic one out there.

 

Cinnamon Stick=\= It smells like the name.  I use this in my kitchen in one of the duo holders.  Usually one Cinnamon Stick and one Cinnamon and Clove Buds.

 

 

 

 

Cinnamon and Clove Buds=\= I love my kitchen to smell like I baked! LOL!!  I think since cinnamon is used in just about everything I make (sweet wise) it’s a nice way to have those scents linger.  Even though Lemon is my number one, during holidays cinnamon rules the kitchen.

 

 

Secret Wonderland=\= My best friend gave Secret Wonderland to me last year for a Christmas gift and I fell in love.  Before that I was strictly a Country Apple/Sweet Pea kind of girl.  Obviously my tastes have change a little.  These were $3 each. Wow!

 

 

Dark Kiss=\= I wasn’t sure about Dark Kiss at first.  I had heard of this from Ellie – Pepper19882007 and thought I would give it a try.  I have to say I get a lot of compliments while wearing this fragrance.  Amazing!

 

 

Charmed Life=\= Can’t beat 75% off!  I bought these for like $2.62!  It’s just an okay fragrance but for so cheap why not keep it around in the guest bath or take the lotion and spray to work if I need to….the possibilities are endless!

 

 

Marshmallow Fireside=\= Buy a 1.6oz candle and get a glass hurricane with it for $2!  Love getting things for free. 

 

 

 

 

Twisted Peppermint=\= Scentportables are a great way to freshen up your car!  I love these vs. Yankee’s car jars and I haven’t had any problems with leaking disks or anything.  I know I have heard YC’s leaking and ruining the interior of cars.  Yum in one of my favorite scent!

 

 

Cinnamon and Clove Buds=\= You can’t beat 50% off the candles.  I think Slatkin’s give off a great throw!  This is great during my baking for the holidays.

 

 

 

Spice=\= This kind of reminds me of the one above, but its got a holiday spice hint to it.  Kind of red hots meets clove buds.  So nice!

 

 

 

 

Vanilla Bean Noel =\= I love this in a hand soap.  I think it’s a great soap for work, where you aren’t sure what others like. 

 

 

 

I will have the other part, Yankee Candle, soon.
