  1. Candlelady!!! What great suggestions. I said Free Shipping about 20 times (well more than once anyway) 1.00 scent sample, scent sample sale, lower prices on wax, scent descriptions, and great sales on the FO's (EDITED).
  2. Per the email I got last night, well newsletter or whatever, they are taking ideas all day and then at 7:00 tonight they'll send out the actual deal. I wonder how long it will be for? I love the 1.00 sample idea. May have to e-mail again.....they are going to be sick of me!!!!
  3. I agree Carol, I did not get near what I wanted!! Someone else from another board suggested a scent sample sale. I added another "wish" e-mail to them because that would be great too. I can't wait to see the sale thingy tonight!!! I hope a lot of people participated. I'm sure there were better ideas than mine.
  4. I am going to get a sample of the CS lime cooler on my next order. It has a great following!!
  5. Camay, I do wick everything I do. Wickless does not sell well for me. I do mainly pillars, but container sales are picking up. I do mostly pottery pieces in them. I have been burning a votive for the last hour or so upstairs in the Yuzu and I am loving it. Again, it is the only lime I have ever tested, but I will stick with this one. If I get one I really like and it sells, I do not look further, UNLESS there is a price difference. I will not sacrifice quality for any reason, but if I can save a dime.............I have a show coming up in two weeks and will introduce this then. I'll post on results with it on how it does there. To me the Yuzu is lime, but something else maybe Yuzu? It is just a pleasant limeish scent, very subtle but strong. Let me know what you think when you try it. My husband who NEVER comments on any scent, I mean NEVER, smelled it and said it was his favorite and he thought it would be a big seller. Oh, I take that back......he LOVES Mr. Missy's Hydrangea and I brought it out last weekend at a show and had to run home twice for more because I sold out, then Sunday people had told people and I was completely out of by then. It is a really great scent too, kind of musky floral, not sweet floral. Compared to a real Hydrangea, it is dead on. It almost seemed as if the 40-ish above crowd ate that one up!!
  6. Okay, lets test this..........I want free shipping, maybe a % off on the oils, ummmmmm, what else? I want to try that hemp wax so maybe cheaper on that? I love free shipping!!!!!! What else??? I am going to shoot for the moon on this one! I mean, they asked, right?
  7. Oh, and Southernstar, the flea market went fabulous, much better than I ever dreamed. I thought there was a recession!! Thanks for the good luck wishes. I have another one in two weeks. Would you send more of that luck? It really worked!!!!
  8. I have it burning in an oil burner and it is blow you down strong. I said OOB on the previous post of mine, (that means out of bottle), not in wax. I know things sometimes turn out different in wax, but when it is this good OOB (out of bottle) it usually is good in wax. But, that is just my opinion though. Plus, two other ladies who recommended it to me from another board said it was good, although they use soy and I do paraffin. I'm sure Candlescience is great too. I have never been disappointed with them, but I have never tried their lime, and I have this one here.
  9. I love your colors!!! Yep, you are addicted!
  10. I get a lot from Candlescience too and am disappointed to see this. Yes, one person's attitude can really hurt a business. Sad thing is, if Mike does not know she did this, he has no way of trying to make it right. I hope you will get in touch with him somehow and let him know this happened. It seems there are companies falling all over themselves trying to get our business these days, and they deserve a chance. The bigger guys better watch out. The chances we give these other suppliers may just end up getting ALL our business. I would give them another chance, though. It if ever happened again then I'd close the door. There are too many others right now who are making it their business to see we are happy and would love to have our money.
  11. Mr. Missy's Yuzu and Lime (just got today) is awesome. PM me if you want me to send you a sample. I smell lime-plus. It is just beautiful.
  12. Dee, what does the guava papaya smell like. I know it is OOB, but do you like it? Some of mine come alive in wax, so OOB is not really fair. I had wanted to get that guava and missed out on it!!
  13. I love this container!!!! I had NO IDEA they had those. I have two really close to me too. They are perfect and only a dollar????? wow.
  14. Here's what I got today.....ginger apple, love, candied apple, love, tangerine, raspberry lemon tart, more lemon and I like, Blackberry Criossant, absolutely to die for, and Yuzu and Lime, BEAUTIFUL!!! That was a huge sale he had so I am wondering if things are just taking a little extra time? Just a guess. I love all I got and cannot wait to get them in wax. I am glad this is happening during "slowish" season where I will have time to test and get it all ready for fall. I got an e-mail today saying to watch your newsletter, something magical is going to happen. Be sure you are signed up....it's coming tonight!! Don't know any more than that but it certainly got my attention. On the problems, try calling maybe. He says he is available to help.............Will post again after waxing. Oh, oh, there will be a page just for samples too I understand.
  15. Yesterday I got the Black Current Tangerine Sherbert and OOB it is really, really good. I cannot wait to wax this one. Then I also got the Powdered Sugar based on everyone's reviews here and yep, its a keeper. I got the Hyacinth Grapefruit and it is blow you away strong. Very very good. Its a toss up for me on favorite between that and the Hydrangea. These are not sweet flowery but more musky flowery. Very strong and good. I also got the Morning Mountain Dew...it is a fresh scent. I will have to wax that one for a better review. I'm not much on clean scents personally, though my customers love them. And last but not least, I got the Honeydew and it is dead on!!! Very strong and melon through and through!!!! So, that's all for now but I intend on getting more before the end of the month. I'll post on them as I get them, and on these when waxed. Gosh, there are so many more I want.......... I'm thinking the raspberry to mix with the powdered sugar for a gourmet cookie type scent. Oh the possibilities....
  16. Only til the end of the month.
  17. Fantastic!!!! I can't wait for Donna-Do to post. She got a lot of them too. There are tons I want. It seems that powdered sugar is a hit with lots of folks. That is going to be a definite for me then. The customer service seems a huge plus too so far. Thanks for posting.
  18. Thanks so much. That is great on the wax. I did not know anyone gave that free. I will definitely check it out. :smiley2:
  19. Southern Star, did you order, and if so, what did you get, if you do not mind sharing. I get excited just waiting on reviews from all the ones who have ordered. I want to order lots more but would like to see how they are doing for everyone else too. I use straight paraffin, though, so of course it may take tweaking for soy or parasoy. I wish I could afford to get one of each..... Maybe some got theirs this past week and we will be hearing from them soon.
  20. I am looking for clean/fresh home type scents??? I love Fresh Linen but was wondering what else you all find interesting and from where? It seems every one offers them and the list is endless. If you do not mind sharing, what are some you all really like? Thanks!!
  21. Oh, hehehe, I think I worded that wrong. I meant free without ordering anything, and free wax samples. Yes, the free samples on FO with an order gets my reorder all the time. Some of my largest repeat orders orginate from a free sample.
  22. Wow!! Some suppliers actually give FREE samples of wax and F/O???? Which ones? I need to be buying from them!!! I have always had to pay for my samples.....plus shipping.
