They're not bad either. Nice scent when left burning for a bit, though they don't burn down as evenly as Yankees but for the difference in price I'm happy to sacrifice that! The coconut and the lilac ones are nice, haven't tried any of the others.

These are always on offer, not that great smell wise IMO.

i`m burning one now as i type and yes they arent as good as yankee but they are a quarter of the price,and the large jars at £4 were marked as a reduction

I got some large jars for less than £3 after Christmas, they smelled great when I burnt them, but then I did pick carefully (the red ones were the only ones worth having IMO).

I've had a few of these when Homebase have done a 15/20% off everything weekend. They're not as good as Yankee, but they're 1/4 of the price so def worth it. Also, the jars are great for spices, sugar, flour etc when they're done as the seals on the lids are very strong. I really like the pomegranate one, lovely smell.

I don't get the Yankee candle thing as I've never found them that special, I think they look a bit tacky to be honest and they're way overpriced. Jo Malone or Parks are my favourite smelly candles. Decoration wise I like Lene Bjerre.

I've just bought one of those Ashleigh & Burwood fragnance lamps, has anyone any views on them? It's not arrived yet so I've no idea what to expect really. I just thought they looked pretty.

15% off at Homebase this wknd so these candles will be going for £3.40. Bargain!
