@Belinda, their store was so nice and bright and clean. I could smell the samples, then purchase the 16 oz bottles right then. Plus any other supplies I needed.
I didn't expect it to be like a store, since I had only been to The Candlemaker's Store when their little store was in the big warehouse, and not nearly as nice. They had about 250 samples to smell, plus wicks and some other supplies to buy, but the only 16 oz bottles I could buy right then were some specials. I bought a few when I went because they were so cheap, but they were mostly weak. I did get a couple of good ones through the years.
The worse thing was the samples had no prices on them for 16 oz size and I couldn't buy them right then. Had to go home, look up the prices of the scents I liked, and order online.
Their store has been closed since Covid with no plans to reopen which is just as well. I won't be tempted to buy their underwhelming specials. I did like smelling samples though.
