I don't usually buy other candles but, I just could not pass this up! Two 28 oz. candles for $5.00 and the scent, Ruby Red Grapefruit, is awesome hot and cold! Anyways, when I blew it out to pinch the wick off, after it cooled, I accidently pulled out the entire wick! No sustainer base! Maybe I'm wrong but, I thought sustainers were manditory in a container??? Oh, the wick looks like fiberglass, it didn't bend very easily, would that be why? Anyone know what type of wick that might be? Also, just wondering if anyone knows what type of wax they use? It's pretty hard for a container wax, and kind of bubbly looking. Well thanks, just curious lol.
