Thanks to DD being sick again, I was home this morning when the UPS driver dropped off not ONE, but TWO boxes from YC!!!! H-O-L-Y C-O-W!!! Chris went over the top with her fabulous choices!! The first box had the Snowman wooden basket with fence, with a small jar & votive of Christmas Eve, as well as a red votive holder. It's adorable (snowmen are my subconscious choice of decoration ), and would have been quite enough, but no, package No. 2!! That contained the beaded basket set, which contains a small jar and 3 votives of Christmas Berries (my fave C'mas scent), and a really pretty clear glass votive holder! Outstanding items! I am already burning the C'mas berries jar. YUM!!!!

Thank you, thank you, Chris! I love it all!!! Merry Christmas to you, also!



Thanks again Nancy, for a fabulous exchange!

Thank you for the
Large Jar of Ribbon Candy-It smells great, I can't wait to burn it.
I had also gotten a set of four floating snowflake candles.

Thank you very much Littleclover .

And thank you Nancy for putting together another great exchange.
Happy Holidays everyone .

Glad you liked what I chose. I feel bad it's such a small package compared to the generosity I've seen so far! This Christmas season is kind of tight on the budget so hopefully next exchange I can send much more.

Have a great afternoon everyone!

I hope my "giftee"'s surprise arrives today

Yes, it did arrive today! I followed the UPS truck into my driveway! Thank you so much Christine aka BaciBecky!

I love the electric tart warmer! I have been wanting to buy one for myself, but couldn't justify it with Christmas coming! I can't wait to cuddle up by the fireplace and use it!

Along with the tart burner, Christine sent me the following tart scents:

Cranberry Peppermint
Hot Buttered Rum
Chocolate Chip Cookie
Peppermint Cocoa
Christmas Cookie

I am so ready for the holidays! Thanks again!

Pooh93,

I am so glad you liked the first goodies - BUT - the UPS driver will be coming your way again bringing one more YC for you!! One item was back ordered but it went out this week!! So, watch for the return of UPS!

Enjoy!
Christine
ps -I thought the snowman electric tart warmer was so cute! I'm so happy you wanted one!

Christine (aka tcwitt)
You sure brightened my day! Left in the rain mid day-ran errands in the rain-came home to more rain. But-when I got here there was a YC package. You did a great job choosing. I received 4 jars:
Cranberry Peppermint (which is burning)
Jack Frost (have that one lit in this room)
Ribbon Candy (smells great also)
Snow Angels (another wonderful scent)
I'm going back and forth sniffing-but can't decide on a favorite-All 4 are new scents for me.
Thanks again and Merry Christmas to you and yours!

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You
"hppy2bhome" (Christina)

I came home from work, and there it was!!

A Med sized Ribbon Candy Jar
and the Red and White striped shade.

I love the scent........reminds me of when I was a little girl, and went to my grandma's house at Christmas time. She always had that Ribbon Candy (we usually gave her some also.........she had a sweet tooth )
That scent brought back fond memories....I miss seeing her and spending time with her, as she passed away almost 15 yrs ago.

Thanks again,
Elaine

 

[Meriweather]

Any more news to report?? I know of at least one more that has arrived

 

[msdznyduck]

Mine is on its way. Just finished shopping online.......thanks again for the codes.
And another BIG thank you to you Nancy for organizing this again........what fun!!

 

[Meriweather]

Up we go for some news today!!

Just mailed out my package! It's on it's way somewhere south of Vermont.

[Meriweather]

I got one of my packages today

A big thank you to mrsheppo
I received a cute votive holder (holly and berry)

Also a car jar: Mistletoe

And a bunch of tarts: Christmas Berries, Christmas Wreath, Cranberry Peppermint, Home for the Holidays, Hot Buttered Rum, Mistletoe, Peppermint Cocoa, Vanilla Cookie.

If I deciphered the YC code right, there should be another package coming too!! Wow!! (is that right?)
Thank you so much, Barbara

Some of those scents are new to me and I can't wait to try them.
And some are old favorites!!
I need to finish up some fall ones I have going and get on with the holiday ones!!

Hope to hear more news from people today.
Mine was ordered first day and I am farthest away, so all the others should arrive too

 

[piglet too]

I just got off the phone with Yankee Candle, and my order is on its way. Some of it is back-ordered, so there might be two shipments.

BTW ~ I tried all day to order on-line and could never get past the receipiants address, thus why I had to call. Then the number on the order screen is the wrong # and I had to go back and look for another number to call. On top of it, I was afraid that she would not atke my code. She asked me where I got it, and I told her from a friend. It did go through, but had me nervous for a bit. Aaagghh! I need to find some candles to burn and try and relax after all of that! LOL

 

[Meriweather]

At least its done, Kirsten
Yes, light a candle, get a cup of something and some chocolate and RELAX.

After looking at my invoice, I decided a second box was not on its way, so I ended up calling them and the missing item is now being resent So no worries, Barbara

Any more news today??

 

[Octoberbride03]

Things got really hectic with house closing and work lately, but I finally did my duty and shopped the online store last night. Went to a Hallmark that sells Yankee, but nothing grabbed us. So I hope my recipient likes what is coming her way. I ordered last night, so hopefully it should ship soon. TY for the codes Nancy

 

[Meriweather]

WOW!! It is my day for mail.....besides the package that I received this morning via UPS, I got another vis USPS this afternoon!!
