I wish I had looked through my mail for that extra coupon! I bought 5 candles and am burning one now.

Ours was having the soap for 2.50 sale. They wouldn't give you the candles for 8 unless you had an email, which I did not. Wow! You didn't need the email. The sign was posted right out front of their store. I can forward the email if you really need it.

There was signage not only in the front windows, but all throughout the store for the $8 candles.
It's a prominent banner on their website. I'd go to the website, enter your zip to find "your" store just to make sure that there aren't some stores choosing to not participate. If they're listed, I'd contact corporate about it.
Me...I went in this morning but left with nothing. I don't really care for the holiday or seasonal scents...and that's all I could find. I did find one holiday scent that was kind of "blossom'y" that I had in my hand...but then saw the line and knew that I was NOT going to stand in line for one candle that honestly, I could take or leave.

The sale was for select stores only. Not all stores have the sale. Their Facebook page is full of complaints. I got 12 candles. I am breaking the rules of no candles as teacher gifts and got 6 for various teachers. They will also get a generous gift card too, so hopefully they won't hate the candle too much

If anyone reads this before chris peas and is willing to forward me the email, please me for my address. I'm going to try and get there before they close!

How can stores choose not to participate? Are Bath and Body Works stores franchised?

I'm not a big foo foo candle lover. I bought all the aromatherapy candles they had in the aromatherapy section. Those were included too. They were the eucalyptus spearmint ones that smell like a spa.

I just picked up two---Holly Jolly Christmas and Fresh Green Balsam. I had a free item coupon, as well, so I got some Twisted Peppermint hand soap.

I bought a couple, but there really wasn't much to choose from. They didn't have any Fresh Balsam in any size and other scents were slim pickings.

Surely "Jen" could have given her something for free. Ugh. I went to a BBW at about 7:30 and there were very few candles left. I totally forgot about the sale until after dinner. I did get 2 cinnamon frosting candles. I am a happy kiddo!

That's pretty much all they had in mass quantity. Everything else was a quantity of 3 or 4. I had to make my choices quickly because people were just grabbing anything that was left.

I went in at 9:40 p.m. tonight and the lines were 20 people deep. I sniffed a few candles and decided none of the options could prompt me to stand in line that long, so I left empty handed.

LOL, I just went to check which candles I bought, and Winter Candy Apple is one of them. Here's a funny (shorter) reenactment video of poor Angela's traumatic experience at Bath & Body Works:

To clarify my earlier post, I got the $8 3 wick candles but I'm sure I had a BONUS coupon around for money off a purchase but didn't take the time to look. Thanks everyone for having my back!

Thanks for enabling! I went on my lunch break. Big mistake! It was a zoo! I ended up getting 5 candles for about $23. Some people there had a $15 off coupon but I only had $10 off and 20%. Not bad. I don't think our store had much besides holiday scents, but maybe I wasn't looking in the right place. Was thinking about going back with the new coupon last night but didn't have time. I will save some of the candles for gifts.

I went yesterday before noon and it was a madhouse! The store I went to had PLENTY of candles. They had two carts stacked about 3 feet high and this poor girl that was stocking and couldn't keep up. They also opened a register up front just for people who were just in to buy candles. I was very pleased how they handled the sale. BTW, I got 15 candles (the limit) with a 20% off coupon, so I got them for less than $7 a piece A few are presents and the rest are mine all mine
