Dragonfly Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 Hi It depends on how muh your cost was to make the candles. I think most people charge 3 or 4 times the cost as their retail price. But, you have to consider your area too. I have seen 8 oz jj candles for as little as $4.50 and as much as $8. Hope that helps~ Dragonfly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sudsnwicks Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 I've seen 8 oz jj as high as 12.95. I'm sure there are others which are higher since I didn't look very hard. Anyway do start by working out how much each candle costs, and go from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

debscent Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 I don't do JJ's, but I sell tins and 10 oz. salsa jars. My tins are 4 oz (actual weight), I sell them for $5.00 and my 10 ounce salsa jars for $10.00. I sell my clamshells for $3.00 or 2 for $5.00 in my area.

heirloomoriginals Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 I will be selling my JJ (Pure Soy) for $7.00 and my 16 oz Square masons for $11.00. I will offer a price break 8 oz 3 for $18 and my 16 oz for 3 for $30.I sell my soaps $4 each or 3 for $10 and seem to sell more sets, plus they can try more scents that way, for less money. I only allow 2 offers per order, though.Steph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
