Gotta love it!!
Went to Walmart this morning and went nuts in the discounted X-mas goods. Bought 10 candles of different sizes and scents. Only found two of the bigass round 4 wick candles so I snatched them up.
Bought lighted garland since the previous one I had isn't safe anymore since the other cat Smokey chewed on the chord one yr.
3 rolls of wrapping paper: one of spongebob, one of The Christmas Story, and one with a cute santa and snowman.
Non-discounted stuff that I couldn't help cause the prices were good:
-Spongebob trashcan that opens when you step on the peddle.
-the AC/DC Live game for my Rockband.
Then on Sunday, I was checking to see what kind of deals that Yankee Candle was having and OMGAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!! I found two discontinued candles back on their list but I think only for a limited time.
I was quick to jump on the Cherry Blossom jar candle since![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
toranookami got me hooked on that scent a few yrs ago when she sent me a votive one yr for my bday. If you happen to read this chickie, you better jump on it and get yourself a full size candle before they take it down again.
And the other, my older sis got me hooked on a few yrs ago when I went home on vacation. She had two and gave me her extra one. I haven't burned it cause it just smells so damn good. Just sucks they only have the med. sized available and not the big of Cherry Lemonade. It smells sweet yet the scent makes you think of summertime.
I LOOOOOVE their candles, just wished they weren't so pricey which is why the only time I buy their stuff is when a sale is on or I can find a coupon to use.
The one candle I wished they would put back out I think it was called Fresh Cut Grass or something along the lines of cut grass. I'm the kind that LOVES the smell of grass when it's mowed.

Hope everyone had a nice holiday. Mine wasn't too bad, I could finally do what I wanted without being around annoying ex-inlaws and their brats. And I didn't feel like a pig either when it came to eating food on Christmas. I had Vietnamese food for lunch and a Japanese hot pot Christmas night attoriru4ever's while we expressed how much we miss Japan. I also brought over the movies that I got from mom and we watched Iron Man and Tropic Thunder.
Hmmm....how to say this....but I don't see what the hype about Iron Man was about. It was an okay movie but nothing SPECTACULARLY HUGE but then again, I'm not a comic book character fan. It had quite a few drag on moments and quite a few predictable moments too. And I was quite disappointed in Tropic Thunder.
If I didn't have to work the day after Christmas, we should've ended the night with The Dark Knight since I will never get tired of that Batman movie.
ETA: I also forgot to mention that I got some awesome Spongebob pjs fromtoriru4ever.

Good coupons for Yankee Candle is www.wow-coupons.com (just click USA and then go to retail- lots of coupons)
And now I must go out and get some more cherry blossom- my favorite flavor next to fresh cut roses.
And Happy New Year!
PS: I should get some things sent out this week- just finishing up the move.

I think that's usually one of the best feelings of getting a hold of something that is no longer listed. I hate it when stores do that. There is another candle I think is new that I would love to see what it smells like: chocolate cupcake. Just by reading what the scene smells like, sounds like one of those that it smells so good, it'll make you wanna try and eat some of the wax *lol*. Another scent that is awesome yet makes you hungry for sweets is the buttercream.
Hope you guys have a great new yr! Is the recent move for the best?
Okie dokie! Good luck with the rest of the move, I totally feel ya on that.

I was real lucky to get anything right now, hubby got laid off permanently from his third full time job. If I can get a job, he go back to school and hopefully it can land him a better job in the future. The move was good, we are closer to everything now and it only takes 3 minutes to get to the store instead of 10! Yay!

I noticed that too with the Cherry Blossom, it didn't smell quite the same as the votive. Wouldn't surprise me if they did change something with the scent and just release it under that name.
The ones that you bought sound like they would smell pretty good. What does the Blue Hydrangea smell like?
Well seems like alot of ppl I know haven't been able to avoid the lay-off bug. That's good to hear that with your recent move, your closer to everything.
