I'm big on them! My favourite used to be Yankee's Pink Dragonfruit, but they discontinued it  :mad: My next fav is Sweet Plum Sakura, but looks like that might be discontinued too! My friend once got me a strawberry and coconut artisan one that was AMAZING, and the wax was so creamy! I burned it out and I so miss it!

Great collection shockponie.  :)  I'm still not buying new candles right now until I use up some of the ones I have.  I still like looking at them though.

Bumping this up to post that Amazon has some Woodwick candles that are much cheaper than the ones from the Yankee Candle website. Yankee sells them for $31 but Amazon has the large ones at $23.

Goose Creek is also having a clearance sale and a sale on their single wicks.

I’m one of the wax warmer people. Mostly because I forget about candles and would burn the place down. Right now I just have ones that are sandlewood and vanilla.

I just dropped $85 on new candles from Goose Creek :freak: They were all on sale plus I had a 20% off coupon. I got 12 candles! Mostly big three wick but there are a couple single wick. I don't know where I'm going to put them ^^;

Only one I've had before and really loved it. It's the one that made my place smell like the beach! I got some similar scents and a lot of fall/winter scents and some "candles for men" with spicy scents that I love.

edit: They arrived today! My haul.

I like them all. I'm burning Suit & Tie right now. They didn't have large versions of the "man" candles. It smells really good! Spicy.

nice haul BC!

i love candles! especially when it's cold and dark outside. curling up under a blanket and watching TV is the best. it's been so hot this summer I haven't lit any candles lately. i just occasionally smell them.

2 years ago I said i was done with Bath and Body Works candles. but now that cooler weather is around the corner i'm tempted. i like the fall pumpkin scents and i used to buy enough to last through Jan. when they had good sales. i would wait until they dropped to ~$10 per candle. but last time i ordered them the quality just didn't seem to be the same. the glass was thinner and they didn't burn well. also the price was higher.

i think i'll check out Goose Creek and see what they have for fall.

Goose Creek has sales all the time, so if you find ones you like, wait a bit until they have another sale.

Ooh, which ones? I've tried Ivory Pumpkin and that one is awesome.

eta: Just bought myself Woodwick Fireside by Yankee. This is probably my favorite candle of all time :hearts: It should arrive tomorrow.

Goose Creek has candles based on Strawberry Shortcake dolls and Little Debbie snacks too.  I was interested in the SS ones, but everything is sold out.

Congrats on your new candles Beth and BC.  :) 

I still love candles, but need to use some up before I buy more.

Woodwicks / crackling wicks are so neat; I love the ambiance they provide!

The little debbie candles seem so gimmicky to me. They’re one of those things I’d have to smell in person to see if anything entices me, but that’s not an option.

I did blind buy Radiant Red Maple from B&BW because there is a lot of hype around it. Now I’m waiting for it to arrive. I know that if it’s not for me, returns are easy.

I recently picked up a couple Homeworx 4-wick candles at TJ Maxx (Peanut Butter & Raspberry Jam and Possessed Plum from their Halloween line), so I look forward to burning those.

Where do you buy the B&BW candles? Online? Or in the store? Our mall is dead and doesn't have anything in it but the candy shop and the food court left.

Online, but I normally go in store. I just don’t have the time to, but I have 3 within 12 miles of me, so returns are easy when I do have time.

Just as a heads up if anyone is interested… Right now their candles are $12.95. And if you poke around the website for a few minutes, I usually get this pop-up to save 20% on top!:

Shipping is $6.99 though (or there’s Buy Online Pick-up In Store if you have a B&BW in your vicinity).
