Big jar candles that fit Yankee products at The Works

Hi, I saw some people go mad for slightly cheaper Yankee jar candles but just discovered that the Yankee products like the light shade or jar topper fit with the starlytes large jar candles which are only £3.99 from The Works. I ordered 2 vanilla (much nicer than Yankee too) and a mulled wine one which was nice to give with the Yankee shade I got in the sale last year.

More often than not the works has discount codes floating around

    They sell these large jars at a lot of places and most of them will fit the Yankee accessories. Home Bargains have them for £2.99 as I got one last Saturday. The major important difference between these and Yankee candles is that these hardly smell of anything when you burn them. :o

    I'm sure I have seen the Forever Friends and 85g candles in jars in the 99p store.
