Not somewhere I had considered looking but we have one nearby, I'll check it out

I was actually looking in to that last night. I'll probably try it once but I do wonder if the time it would take would be worth the money saved.

This is a neat idea, I'll give it a shot next time we have some!

We are very much not local, but I see they have some stuff 20% out so we might check it out! Thank you!

I've experienced that at a friend's house and I don't prefer it over just using our existing wax burner, if we are going to do something flameless. They were very pleasant smelling though!

This is the route that we go too actually, I just hate having to wait for sales haha

Honestly, we normally burn them for ~6-7 hours at a time when we light them. We both work from home and I'll usually light it up the first time I get up from the computer. It doesn't happen with nicer candles, but some of the cheaper 1 wick ones we get from Walmart or Aldi will tunnel like that even with the long burns.

 

My wife and I love scented candles but the cheap ones burn like shit and tunnel really bad, where the expensive ones are...expensive. we use scented waxes sometimes but we like having the flame.

Is there some little-known marketplace or website that I can get good candles at, affordable?

That is possible, though from my limited experience (2 call centers) companies won't tell Customer Service reps to deny knowledge of something that is public knowledge. They will have some sort of carefully constructed public statement instead. And most reps don't care enough to do anything besides repeat the statement, possibly verbatim.

I've worked adjacent to customer service people in a call center. Honestly, they might not have known. Call centers are frequently terrible about giving their reps news BEFORE customers start calling in about it. Plus, low level call center reps generally aren't exactly star employees and may or may not pay attention when told things.

As somebody who used to weigh over 350 pounds, you need to be the thing that stops you. I promise, losing the weight is harder than just not buying that cake in the first place.

Obviously you do or else you wouldn't live there

Very much not true. Moving to another country full time is not particularly easy for a lot of people.
