Fall Yankee Candle sent/received thread

[piglet too]

Oh, am I in trouble now! My 2 yr old DD just made me go through the Yankee Candle catalog with her, TWICE! She kept pointing to all the different candles and saying "Candle? I smell?", then pretending to smell them and giving a "yumm" or a "ewww" for them.

I am trying to be paitent as I wait for my package to arrive. It is getting harder and harder as everytime I hear a truck go by, I am looking to see if it is coming to me. Same when the mail comes in the afternoon. LOL

The package I sent is on it's way. I checked with FedEx and it is in transit and should still arrive tomorow!!!!

I wouldn't be in a Wal-Mart candle exchange either
I have tried everything! Yankee are the best!
I hae so many, I could burn for years and not need to shop
I burn scents to match the season.....and am partical to food ones.....like blueberry muffin
I have 3 full 18 packs....most will be gifts here and there.
3 shoe boxes FULL of tarts.
Tea lights....those holders tend to be SO cute.
Jars....small, medium and large.....at least 15 large ones!! Just for me to burn at home.

I don't mix tarts.....I like my scents single But that is a personal preference. I have a raspberry cream tart going now.....and there is a buttermilk pancakd downstairs waiting for a little later.

Oh.....check the candle accessories when you go to WDW or DL....last time I got a Pooh shade and a scattered Mickey shade

Hope we hear of some more arrivals tomorrow.

Pooh's Pal.....yours was mailed the 22nd.....so should be soon.

Nancy and Kim Raye, I just can't compete with your numbers I thought I was such a candle queen, and you guys made me look like a candle peasant I feel so inferior I suppose I have one small cupboard that has all of my candles and accesories. If I had as many as you guys I do believe I could use DH's to store them all because he would be gone

I think you guys could teach me a lot.

Guess you can greet him at the door until the package arrives

My package came today!!

Thank you so much TeresaNJ! I got a box of farmhouse apple scented tea lights, they smell heavenly! A welcome apple tea light holder and votive holder and 4 spiced pumpkin votives, they smell sooo good! I can't wait to burn them.

I'm hoping to hear that my package arrived safely at it's destination.

I'm now officially hooked and looking forward to the Christmas exchange! Thanks Nancy for organizing this!

Denise...I'm so sad that the Harvest was broken!! I was more worried about that shade than the candles. If you need a receipt to exchange it please let me know!

Other than that, I'm glad you like what I chose. These are so much fun.

Woo Hoo, I love coming home to giant packages with my name on them! (It's usually DH's )

Thanks so much to Jessica (aka jwsqrdplus2) for the wonderful swap package

I love everything!
Jar candles in Apple Pie and Vanilla Cookie
A fall themed tart burner complete with an assortment of tarts and tea lights
A votive in pumpkin
Mickey soap and candle
PLUS a mickey pencil, a pooh/tigger postcard and some great mardi gras beads!

Thank you so much, I especially love the tart warmenr, as I only have 1, and it's very much summer themed. Now I can put that one in the bedroom, and keep the new one on display!

Thanks again

 

[Meriweather]

Any more news today?
I know the boards were down for a couple of hours

I will be out of town for the next few days.
I will update things on Friday. I hope I come back to everyone having received.
I am sending out a few PMs to let people know the status of their exchanges....as much as I know anyway.

 

[TeresaNJ]

You're very welcome Michele!! These exchanges are so much fun, aren't they? I see you are going to be going to the NJ DISmeet next summer, so I'll get to meet you in person then!

Not to worry! DH suggested I place it into a Pyrex measuring cup and that is what I did. It has been burning since 10 am!! Smells yummy in here. The macintosh is burning in the family room and the harvest in the kitchen.

Thanks again!!

 

[Meriweather]

One more bump up from me.

See you Friday....and yes, I have a candle packed

 

[KimRaye]

I burned one of the tea lights last night, my house smelled so good!

I'm looking forward to meeting you at the meet next summer! It sounds like it'll be a blast.

Nancy, have a nice trip!

You can get some good buys on Ebay, if you are interested in Yankee Candles.

Here's an Ebay store I know about: SPAM REMOVED
Lots of different items to choose from, including rare and retired scents. It is cheaper if you buy more, because of the combined shipping.

I wonder how it is that this poster would happen to know bout this ebay place????? They probably thought it would be fun to see if their Dis name could be found on ebay. All right, I'm being very sarcastic. I did check out this seller, and she does have good deals. You would almost have to buy two, though, because shipping for one candle is $8. For any additional it is $2.50
