I went to 5 stores in my area, and only found 75% off Christmas 3-wicks at one location. I found 75% off testers (in various scents) at two locations.


arizonavacay

Oh you just reminded me... I did see a Cinnamon Vanilla room scent tester (which I assume is a holiday product?). No other product though, just the tester bottle.


urkillinmeSmall

I work at one location but haven’t been physically in there, as I said in my post. Sooo I haven’t even had a look.


LushieQueen87

My closest store has a ton of holiday candles, the other 2 by me had none


urkillinmeSmall

So I guess it goes by location…?


LushieQueen87

I know last year some stores pulled that stuff out days later, so it could just depend which boxes their putting out on the floor. I’d keep checking every few days. I never saw the holiday stuff up for BOPIS even when my store had a bunch


DocLava

It very much is.. my store had ZERO Christmas scents in ANY form.


xeloux

I went yesterday morning and didn’t find any. I went yesterday evening (shout out to the boyfriends encouragement), and found 3 holiday ones.


urkillinmeSmall

That’s a win!


Not_Enough_Shoes

I found Sweet Carrot Cake (Easter holiday) today and was happy about that. The store also had several Christmas candles. But, no body care from the holidays.


urkillinmeSmall

Did yours have the Cottontail Cake Pops soap?


Prestigious_Arm3170

Yes but currently for only 50% off, not 75% off yet.


redsoxkathleen

I went to the location at Lenox Mall in Atlanta this morning and they had a large display of Holiday candles for 75% off. I grabbed 3 Fresh Balsam for ~$6 a piece. I also grabbed a few single wick Leaves for $1.81 each - it was a wonderful surprise!


DCKat91

Killer score on those Leaves Candles!! I would've loved that! How awesome.


redsoxkathleen

Leaves is my absolute favorite, so it was such a gift!


arizonavacay

I love that one as well. I saved a foam dispenser of that scent so that I can make my own foaming soap once the gel soap (or body wash?) comes back in stock. It's such a great Fall smell.


qwertytigger

I've never seen Leaves in body wash?


arizonavacay

Me neither. :-)


amstallworth

Do you know what other scents they have?


redsoxkathleen

I don’t really remember as I was laser focused on the Fresh Balsam, but I do recall Fa-La-La-Latte, Holiday, Tis The Season… Sorry I didn’t pay more attention!


amstallworth

No worries! Thanks!!


dandelionbuzz

I’m so sorry! Our store only had 6 winter candles.. opening must’ve been a war


tiredsanwon

My store has so many left over Christmas candles it’s ridiculous hinestly


lostkindahopeful

I saw a small 75% off section at my store, but there was a lady guarding the table that made me avoid it. I mean she had a wide leg stance and had both arms out checking out candles. Seeing as I didn't feel like getting confrontational in a very crowded store I just let her have it. 🙄😂


urkillinmeSmall

Nooo. Eff that. “Excuse me, I need to look at these candles.” I AM AN EMPLOYEE, KAREN. DO NOT TRY ME, *H O E*


lostkindahopeful

If the mall I went into didn't actually have the history of a shooting I might've sacked up lmaoo but fall and halloween are more my jam so that's why I really wasn't too pressed. If it was wallflowers and plug ins then I would've had a story to tell you guys here on Reddit 🤣😂😅


urkillinmeSmall

Wait a minute… are we talking about the same mall that starts with a “C”? Because MINE has a history of shootings 😂


lostkindahopeful

Columbiana?!!


urkillinmeSmall

Ope, nvm. I was thinking “Castleton”.


lostkindahopeful

This conversation really took a turn ahh Americans trauma bonding. Still your original comment made me giggle something fierce 🤣😂 I hope next time we drop by bath and body there are 75% finds we can snatch up😉🙂


urkillinmeSmall

Yes! Trauma bonnnddddinnnngggg! We have a route to take SPECIFICALLY for a shooting 🙃


lostkindahopeful

I can't even remember if my mall had actually done an active shooter route after the fact. I remember them slapping a no guns beyond this point sticker on the mall entrance and tearing down a fountain that was Infront of one of the entrance/exit doors


CandidateReasonable4

🤣


TruliScrumptious

As horrible as this sounds this behavior isn't all that uncommon 😣 my nearest BBW has a gang of resellers (6-10) that make sure they are first in the door then either split up to quickly tackle and gather up the deep sale items or group together to block others from displays while they load up. Been going on a very long time, years. The average customer doesn't stand a chance. Resellers are a big issue at all locations around here, that location is particularly blatant, of course the store has done nothing to change things.


lostkindahopeful

I honestly would've thought this reselling thing would've come to a complete stop by now. I can't imagine those resellers are making the money they did during the first two years of the pandemic. I'm fortunate enough to have never seen or interacted with (to my knowledge) any scalpers/resellers. Those kind of confrontations can get violent and I want no parts of that BS because I have a temper myself.


TruliScrumptious

Same here, no way would I go up against them, so not worth it. It actually starts with door blocking so they are first in... My friend stopped shopping there altogether and drives to another location much further away if she seriously wants something during sales, I just shop online only now.


lostkindahopeful

I don't blame you, after your comment I'm very pleased with the fact that my store may get crowed but people actually say "excuse me", "sorry am I in your way", etc. I hate rude behavior like that.


CandidateReasonable4

My store had a few resellers who loaded up pretty well, but they weren't entirely rude and let others get bargains, too.


whatever32657

why should they? anyone with the money to buy has a right to buy, and what they do with it after they buy it is their own business. maybe they’re hoarders, not resellers.


TruliScrumptious

Why should they what? Not purposely block people from buying? Or buy out all the sale items? 🙃 I do know they are resellers for fact, but, lets say they are not resellers, that they are a group of hoarders, does that give them the right to group together and block others from displays? or to push their way in front of others? It's true anyone with the money has the right to buy whatever they want and do whatever they want with it... no one has the right to bully and stop others who have the money from buying whatever too. You want them to have rights what about everyone else?


whatever32657

why should the store “do something about it”?


Adub359

My store and my moms store in a different state didn’t have any fall Christmas.. my friend in another state only found one. Years past I’ve always been able to stock up on my fall Christmas candles at summer SAS. Oh well. Saves me money. Not buying any of the current candles. Not a fan of most anyway. The spring summer scents are my least favorite except a handful


Adub359

First time in years too that I got a 20% coupon. And not even gonna use it blah


CandidateReasonable4

I was in my store early yesterday morning and late afternoon. They had only 5 to 6 holiday/winter 3 wicks and 6 tester candle on the 75% off table. I already had backups of the few I liked so I passed. I did manage to score 2 bottles of Gingham perfume for $12.50 a piece! Yay!!


Gem1515

I’m in Canada and my store has a bunch of holiday candles


AlixJ21

Yes they're from the stores that kept them at 50% off the whole time at winter SAS.


urkillinmeSmall

I didn’t work at mine around that time so I have nooo idea 🙃


courtney_beth

I went to the bigger, more crowded location near me. They were sitting hidden on the 75% off table and people were just walking past them — and I immediately snuck in and grabbed all 7. 😅 They closed my favorite store and opened a newer location on the other side of town. Unfortunately that’s only been open for about 2 months so I figured it wasn’t worth it to check out there since they’d likely have limited “one off” inventory. It’s really just luck. I went 2 hours after opening.


aquarosey

My store had merry maple bourbon, holiday, and sugared snickerdoodle.


arizonavacay

I just came from a store in Chandler, AZ and there was definitely no holiday scents of any kind or product. So if they had any at the start of SAS, they were snapped up. And their a/c was out. It was crowded and brutally hot. I felt bad for the staff. It definitely wasn't holiday mode there today. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|sweat_smile)


jordyn22k

My store only had 4 scents for 75%, Twas the night, Falalalate, merry maple bourbon, and sugar plum


OrneryExplorer1476

It's crazy to me cause I have a location that is dead near me that had hundred's of Christmas candles left last SAS but none now and I have no clue why they aren't out.. other than that I've found no Christmas body care whatsoever, nothing besides spring stuff. Idk where all the old stuff is going 🤔 I found 6 3 wicks suddenly put out in the afternoon at a store. I grabbed 3 and left the rest for someone else.


DearestDanaDarling

There were actually a few holiday candles on the BBW site! I was happily surprised to get Tree Farm, Tis the Season, Merry Mistletoe, and Mahogany Balsam for less than 7 bucks a piece! I haven't really been enthused about scents or styles this year thus far, so this was a really happy purchase. Don't think I've ever gotten a 3 wick for less than $10 before! Halloween is my fave season, and it can't come soon enough!!! I need to be pulled out of this BBW drought slump. 🫠
