Cheap Candles

Im looking for some nice simple scented candles for living room decoration. Im thinking of the small ones that come in glass but alot of places really charge alot for these like £25 for one candle i mean its just ridicoulous. Anyway does anyone know where i can get nice ones for a reasonable price. Thanks

  • Do you want the original Yankee Candles ?? Best place I have found for them is
    http://www.just-candles.net/

    and sometimes you get nice scented ones in TK Maxx, including Yankees.

    It is worth paying the extra for Yankee candles they are lovely and the scents fill my living room. www,yankeedoodle.co.uk are great and often have some good offers.

    noticed some yesterday in Poundland, they had a lot of different ones, guess how much they were???
  • http://www.scentedcandleshop.com/

    Try these, not sure what it is your looking for so I cant check the price but they do a good deal.
    I bought all my wedding candles from here and got a good discount for bulk too. They do quick delivery too
  • I have to agree Yankee Candles are the best for scent also Woodwick are good, I usually buy mine from Ebay. You could also try the Yankee Tarts in burners they last ages.

    The bigger Sainsburys, Asda etc all have nice candles and some are in the sale at the moment, changing from summer to winter fragrances or something.
  • I stock up when I go to IKEA. They do vanilla, berries, cinnamon, apple, rose and cost £1.19 each.
    I'd steer clear of the Tesco ones as they give off very little fragrance

  • The larger supermarkets offer the best value in my opinion. The Yankee candles are way overpriced for what you get.
