    Another yankee fan here, also love the tarts that you melt in the burner.
  • I bought two of those £15 yankee candle kits, they are really good. Got lots of candles and lit the cinnamon one today and the British Gas man came round and said my house smelt of christmas!! it was lovely, got lovely tart burner too and two christmassey sampler holders and a christmassey tray to put them on, it is really good value and I have already separated the packs for christmas gifts for my staff at work. Lovely stocking fillers.
    Food and Smellies Shop target £50 pw - managed average of £49 per week in 2013 down to £38.90 per week in 2016
  • I'm an avid yankeee candle user and have a wax tart burner on most days/nights, I often buy from EBAY, can ususally get quite a few with no postage charge, or from Hallmark Cards - avoid Dobbies though as they are 20p a wax tart dearer than hallmark cards.

    I use to buy from wicknwax because she use to do Lush dupe scents, was at a loss when she stopped selling, I now buy from this seller and have found her products just as good. I use the tarts for oil burners and i found that the scents last a lot longer than yankee.

    I love Yankee Candles too, had one I bought last year burning the other night, it was lush but as it was a year old and half used I have no idea what smell it was :rolleyes:

    I just discovered the best Yankee smell ever though, Be Thankful, it's gorgeous! Must buy more!

    I have bought Yankee candles from https://www.ilovegifts.co.uk their prices are great and they have loads of special offers on their votives and tarts.
  • there is another thread possibly on grabbit area about a 'selection pack' of yankee candles from an ebay site. I'll try to find the link, its was posted today or late yesterday
  • I used to buy all my candles from a wholesaler, not sure if I can put the link on here though. I used to sell them and Incense sticks at a local market .
