Went to Yankee Candle today, also used the $10 off of $25 coupon (thanks Shelle

) Heres what I bought:

*3 Black Cherry tarts
*mini Gingerbread candle
*another Banana Cream Pie candle

This was a different YC than I had gone to before and they were $7.00

*2 tealight holders They are frosted glass with flowers etched on them, they are really pretty.
*a new HFO burner, its crackled and etched glass. I think this is also really pretty.

I think candles always look pretty when they are being burned in etched glass.

I received a couple packages in the mail today

Megan sent me a VS Honeysuckle Belle splash

I also received a few extras in a very cute Valentines bag. I am especially excited to try the MCS body souffle in Purple Rain, I have never tried MCS. Thanks Megan

I received my tarts from Lovey already. I was shocked to get those already, I ordered less than a week ago. I absolutely love everything!!!Its really hard to pick a favorite right now, they all smell so good. Once I start using them, I will post my reviews of all the scents. I also received a couple extras in Eggnog and Warm Vanilla Sugar. I am so happy with everything and will definitely order more. Thanks for everything Lovey

It was indeed a mistake. I wish I had bought more at the $7 price, but $10 isn't that bad anyway.

MissV, I am bad at describing scents just but to me it smells like a banana candy scent.

Holy cow, thank you soooo much!!! I can see why you have stocked up on Passionate Kisses, it smells incredible I also love the Honeysuckle Belle Next SAS I am going to be there the first day, so I can stock up on both of these. They are both really, really good. I will be using them sparingly until I can really stock up I also love the lip glosses and I dont have either flavor/scent. VS lip glosses are one of my favorites. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you Fryl. You are so generous, I truly appreciate it

You're so welcome, Gizmo!!

I am so happy you love everything. There's more where that came from.

You'll make a beautiful bride in it.

Woohooo, yay for high speed internet and digital cable, MAnne!!

I came home to a surprise package from MissV. She sent me a card and the cutest Hello Kitty ornament! MissV you're the best.

I also received Lovey's package. Her tarts are awesome. I'll post reviews once I have some time to go through all the scents again. I also got a Banana Nut Bread candle as a surprise.

It's one of my favourite scents!!

Lovey, you did a fantastic job, keep it up.

I also got other packages from eBay. I had some items saved to my watch list and had my husband choose a couple of items so I'd be surprised. He picked a nail polish and JCrew cardigan.

I also received a LUSH and my MAC packages.

I went to Yankee Candle today, and the Encore Collection candles were $7 again!

They've changed their prices 3 times!

I got 4 candles:
1 Peanut Butter Cookie (last one

)
2 Banana Cream Pie
1 Spiced Pear

Oh, I didn't forget to use the coupon for $10 off.

I also went to Old Navy and got my husband a bunch of stuff, and bought flannel pajamas for myself.

I finally got to use my TJMaxx gift card that I got over Christmas. I got Jaqua Sugar Princess body washes in Pink Candy and Vanilla Frosting. Both smell very nice. The former smells a bit artificial at first, but once you get over it it smells like candy, my favourite!!

I also got some other boring stuff for the house, and a pair of Converse in a nice blue colour.

I went to TBS as well, but I'll post my purchases in that thread.
