Thank you for doing this series Eric. I don't always have time to look up sales or Tess' page.

[@ericandcompanytoo]

Thank you!😀 So glad you like the series.

"Throne of Lies". The best candle name ever! Cherry Pop Tarts are awesome. Vlogmas! 🤪 Very nice episode this week, thank you. See you next time!

[@ericandcompanytoo]

I love the title Thone of Lies and Son of a Nutcracker.😂 Who doesn't love Cherry Pop Tarts! Ah, those take me back.😊

[@lisasmith7]

I love the bow top candles. I just need a sale. Even a buy one get one. I'm not super excited with the candle day list. The cup for roasted espresso is super cute! I watch Elf every year. It never gets old. Have a wonderful week❌️⭕️

[@ericandcompanytoo]

I hope we get another good candle sale before Candle Day because I'd like to get the fancy bow lid candles ahead of the craziness. Swan Creek with their coffee cup candles look so nice on a coffee table. I ended up buying one or two of the Elf candles this year.😂 Have a great week!

[@ShaizaShamim]

Happy Fall, Eric! Love the new background! I have been burning up candles nonstop trying to make room for Candle Day so that is too bad that the selection is so sparse this year! 😮 Maybe they will surpise us later as the time gets closer 🤔

[@ericandcompanytoo]

We got to make room for Candle Day! The list of candles coming out was a little disappointing. However, bbw usually as one or two surprises for Candle Day as well.😀 Hopefully they will be adding to the candle day list.🤞

[@donnalovescandles]

I am underwhelmed for the preview candle day candles coming out. I’m interested in Christmas Cider, sugar cookie, merry mistletoe, and fresh orange. Not much else so far. I placed a large goose creek order on the weekend. I did buy backups at BBW as I had a 25% off coupon and got candles at $8.21 each. I am enjoying burning peppermint bark. Strong throw and scent is nice. Have a great night!

[@ericandcompanytoo]

I hope somehow there will be a few surprise candles that weren't listed for Candle Day. One can hope.😂

[@715Miss]

I bought Fall Garland's wax melt after watching your video and I LOVE IT!! It's such a great candle. ❤

[@ericandcompanytoo]

Fall Garland is such a nice candle. So glad you like it too!😀

[@crazy4candles123]

I hope BBW adds to the list for candle day and that Candy Cane Colada comes back !!! otherwise I may haul one fifth of what I usually do .(That wouldn't hurt and I skipped the recent sale which is not like me ) I am so proud of myself haha

[@ericandcompanytoo]

I'm thinking the same way. Candle Day is primarily shopped by candle enthusiasts. So bringing out the same old thing isn't going to work. Whoever is running that place must not understand how candle collectors shop.😂 I might be saving a lot of money this year.

[@robinb5831]

Hey Eric! I, too, am underwhelmed with the upcoming candles shared by Tess. I am surprised they didn't bring back Peppermint Sugar Cookie this year. I was looking forward to Magic in the Air because, believe it or not, I do not have one in my collection after all these years. BTW, I have GC's Fall Garland but haven't burned it yet. I can't wait to see your upcoming GC haul!😊

[@ericandcompanytoo]

When I saw the candle list, I'm sure the smile on face slowly diminished as read down the list.😂 I was looking forward to adding Magic in the Air to my candle collection as well.

[@robinb5831]

@ericandcompanytoo 😄

[@Deb_C]

Thanks Eric. Nice empties. Yea sometimes the labels might get you lol. I’ve been getting a pop up in the app that if I use my reward I’ll get 100 bonus points. At first I thought was trying to just get me to use a reward so kept xing it out and now it won’t pop up again

[@ericandcompanytoo]

Hi Deb🙋‍♂️ My app isn't showing the 100 bonus points. I wouldn't mind getting that pop up. I have a few rewards I'd like to use before they expire.

[@Hayesel83]

Yes Eric I'm already predicting my smallest candle day haul yet after seeing those lists 🤔 glad I did a lot of my pregame to candle day last weekend's $10.95 sale 😂

[@ericandcompanytoo]

Yeah, this is looking like a crappy candle day line up. Where's the new fun fragrances??? We might actually save money this year!🤣

[@ericlemite6800]

Your videos always put me in a good mood and make me laugh! I’m currently at the airport watching your video, it’s so hectic here. I’m just smiling at my phone getting all my candle info 😅

[@ericandcompanytoo]

Awe, thats so awesome! Glad to know you enjoy the videos!😀

[@crazy4candles123]

I have Fall Garland and have yet to light it but it does smell heavy on pine as you say .. with Cherry I am always afraid it will smell like medicine .I am interested in the Popsicle line though ! I was wondering it the Creamsicle is a better version then what they formally had this past spring I would love a more Vanilla version with a hint of Orange,

[@ericandcompanytoo]

I could see where the cherry popsicle might come across as a cough medicine. Definitely give it a try if they go back on clearance.😀 I stayed away from the Creamsicle candle for the same reason. I was afraid it would smell like the one from the spring.

[@MeetMsMarie]

You know I've never had a strong Pumpkin Vanilla candle lol. Granted, I've only tried the ones from Trader Joe's and BBW.

[@ericandcompanytoo]

This is true. Its hard finding any strong vanilla candles it seems.

[@jg9622]

What is the throw on Goose Creek's Holiday Embers?

[@ericandcompanytoo]

Its fairly strong. It fills out my family room just fine. 😀

[@naz-nazneen886]

🙋🏽‍♀️Happy Monday Eric & company😊☕️

[@jeanreppy3426]

Yay candle day😵‍💫...didn't look that great to me either...I always wonder if older candles lose their scent🤷‍♀️...burning "Sweet Cranberry Pie"...one of my favorites 🦃

[@jg9622]

@@ericandcompanytoo Thank you, Eric. 😃

[@JoLamb.]

Ya, I checked out Tess’s Blog and wasn’t very impressed with what is supposedly to come. I’ve not tried the Sugar Plum Fairy or the Cranberry Pear Bellini so I’ll be putting my nose on those when they come out. Thanks for the weekly update.✌️

[@taylornation320]

Youre not kidding. The candle day list is terrible. Even the mew ones evergreen and fir, vanilla and caramel, cinnamon rolls .. they all sound like they could be repackages. Why not something unique? Like cranberry pound cake, winter rose latte, hazelnut chocolate bread, pine + smoke, toasted marshmallow and fir. Something different!! The winter vanilla balsam from GC is scratching the itch. Its marshmallow fireside and pine mixed. Its sooooo good. Also wishing cozy Christmas PJs could have been in a candle. Linen + tree weirdly smells so good and nostalgic. And doesn't snell like everything else but still smells like Christmas. That's what they should be doing! Idk why they get so lazy and uncreative sometimes...

[@ericandcompanytoo]

The Candle Day list is horrible. I think who ever is running bbw, doesn't have a clue about candles or candle collectors. They should hire you to do the scent combinations. The ones you mentioned I would totally buy!😀

[@nicolesrepair]

First time buying Kringle this Halloween. Very disappointed. For $34, expected more. 1 wax melt I got was non existing fragrance. I actually prefer lightly scented candles, but they fall under the 'ain't nuttin there' catergory. Also don't really trust reviewers either. Only one I know will flat out tell you there's hardly any fragrance.

[@ericandcompanytoo]

Kringle definitely has hits and misses. Witches Cauldron was light for me. I agree, for $34 it better fill the room with fragrance.

[@jeaniebee3657]

mashed potato and gravy candle?????? lol why????? lol

[@ericandcompanytoo]

Lol I have no idea why on that one.😂
