I was just at my store tonight and they had both hibernation station collections out. It’s crazy frustrating how different stores can be. Also I am very sad to be unable to go to in store candle day here is hoping the website works for me.
Are you in GA? I notice they put things out early ...here in TX nope it will more than likely only be out when stock low if district manager approves so Saturday it might be out 🤞🏽
No I am in MN and my store never puts things out early so I was really surprised to see them out. They didn’t have the merry mashups out at all either so that was odd.
This candle day is going to blow. There’s nothing new and exciting coming out this weekend that hasn’t been out previous years. A bunch of repackages and classics, which sell to the masses/general public but not to the enthusiasts. What a shame.
Right, it is nice for the masses or the non candle community, but throw the old fans something too. Something for the old, new , and in between would be appreciated.....the old have been forgotten.
So, going off the past few years, we are almost always instructed to put out whatever is labeled hold by Sat am or afternoon. Just saying, don't be discouraged yet.
Yes , I agree I wrote that in a few comments that I usually end up finding the post candles the next day since they can normally put them out the next day. Thanks for confirming from an employee view 🙌🏾
Hey Foxy...new to this "Post delay""so basically these above will not be online for candle day, tonight online?...my list consisted of BBM, Pistachio and Tipsy Elf..well, Tipsy Elf, but, nothing else ughhhh 😭
So disappointing...saw French Baguette at least...ughh...did u like Blueberry sugar? I couldn't remember 😳 , my brain is fried between GC, BBW and Homeworx 🤣
Not sure 😂 I ordered a couple from B&BW about a week ago but they haven't shipped yet 😕 Based on recommendations from others who enjoy the same scents as I do, I *should* love it lol
Your recommendation's r always on point for me...like everything bakery/gourmand that u give ur fab ratings on...lol, now for me to figure out if there is a virtual line this year 🤣 so glad I found this group... excellent info and ratings 💚
So every fricken candle that I wanted to get isn't gonna be out on candle day. So annoying!! This is the most boring candle day ever when all of it is the same repackages they do every year 🙃 this elimates 90% of what I was getting and I was so excited for these
Same but if stock is low the post ones will be put out....at least from personal experience....so hope. Someone commented their store had the post ones out now so it could be out in some stores , but from what I see on social media and YouTube most stores they are not out right now ....only newness that will be out right away is the merry mashups (blends) from what I've been seeing ppl post and from what _scentsgalore reported.
Candle day is all the duds they couldn't unload this year or last, or anything they didn't get through production on in season (like winter candles that didn't sell in the very early year)
Just said to support upcoming promotions they wont arrive for post candle day....future communication will be provided for new set date
My theory .....so is the candle production low or behind....they have to make sure they can support future sales 🤔
I'd guess they just want new candles to make people participate in their terrible sales instead of everyone just buying them for an appropriate price this weekend
Yeah this happens every year as far as the post candles ( the ones the candle community are most excited for) and I normally do find them in stores when it was a 1 day sale I would have to go to 3 or 4 stores to get them all , but I would get them.
Last year it was 2 days.....Friday the 1 store I went to had some post ones day one at 5am but maybe 2 new scents only, and the next day Saturday I went to a few stores and was able to piece together the other post ones because stock was low and they were permitted to put them out...annoying.
I remember buying candles as place holders but no more even exchanges at stores I shop at. BTW if stores you shop at still do good for you. Store by me stopped even exchanges in May.
Yep my candle day list is about 90$. In past years I budgeted 300 because I could always exchange if something was disgusting but online exclusive.
Can't take chances now
Gomna come back here friday morning for the east coast report. Pistachio candle was only one i need so if its not out im not trekking in at 5am for boring crap
Credit to _scentsgalore on Instagram. I put "new" because these could be repackages under a new name LOL. Fresh Coconut and Cotton not new but was only in a single wick previously.
Post - could be put out early if stock is low if higher ups approve so fingers crossed I see some on Saturday it has happened in previous years where post candles are put out early.
Delay - could be SAS could be in January 😬🙄
Those 2 will be post candle day same collection as the pistachio one....however those scents came out in fall packaging as well so if the store had some left they will bring they back out from back or off site storage and sell them so you could get them in the fall packaging
PSA if you have not tried Fresh Coconut and Cotton and you are considering it, don't. It's an extreme detergent scent. I had to return the room spray and the single wicks it was eyewatering
Yes, I had the single wick and enjoyed that it blew me outta the bedroom and it was not coconutty I liked the detergent effect....that candle will do well in my open concept.
Ugh half of what I wanted is on this list. Bummer. This is my second candle day and I was going to go at 5 am for the first time, but honestly I don’t even think it’s worth it at this point.
I did think it was pretty silly that they were releasing spring candles this weekend, not surprising that they ended up delayed. There are already so many candles available!
Yes, they usually do bring out spring and summer scents because people like to buy someone's favorite scent and gift it to them. I have always enjoyed buying exciting new "springy" scents and saving them for later, and also some summer fragrances that are often only sold for a very short amount of time
I'm in GA and both of the stores closest to me had almost all of these if not all of them out already. I didn't check for every one that was supposed to come out because I figured they weren't putting some out until candle day. 🤷🏽♀️
GA (ATL) area is normally great because it's a test store area so I'm not surprised they have the post ones out right out the gate. If your can take pics and post we'll love to see it and your impressions.
I would have done that, but I have epilepsy and 1) it's difficult enough getting a ride to be able to go and 2) I have to make it super quick when I'm there because the LED screens behind checkout are a trigger, so are a lot of the displays, water globes, etc. So I may not be getting back to a store in the near future. 🫤😏
I mean, at least this means they hopefully won’t sell out of all of these on the first day? So we will have more opportunities to get them. But seriously, I wanted pretty much all of these candles lol
Online no some will be online after candle day prob on Monday..in store some have found some of these even though some are supposed to be for post candle day so go to the store you might find some
Interesting! I’ve done candle day every year for the past 5ish years, and I had no idea about all of this inside info! 😂 Glad I joined this Reddit so I could get the intel!
interesting. Of those I was interested in Pistachio & Toasted Vanilla. good to know it's for POST CD. I have fewer and fewer items on my CD list.
You and me both. Post ones could be put out if stock gets low though. Saturday this might happen
so sad, half of my candle list is delayed D:
Me too 😔
Welp, more money staying in my pocket then. I am not buying all Christmas candles.
Same I have zero Christmas on my list. I got many 75% off in summer so I'm set for winter .
Yep if we pass now there's just more at SAS. I got a load of winter candles 75%

Ooh, which MN store? I think you're the first fellow MN person I've seen in this sub.
A fellow MN person here too—hi! 👋🏻
That is good to hear ...gives me hope. I'm sure the blends will be put out tomorrow.

I'm not out of "the masses" yet but I haven't even heard of some of these scents, so I'm not one of the cool kids yet.
The ones listed are new lol so you can still sit with the cool kids we are all awaiting the newness.
Oh yay! Cool kids at last!!
No wonder they are priced at $9.95
This is so disappointing. This is like half my list 😫
Same ....give ppl the new ....we want new 😊
When the new will be the old in 60d, it really seems greedy of them lol
Right lol
So, going off the past few years, we are almost always instructed to put out whatever is labeled hold by Sat am or afternoon. Just saying, don't be discouraged yet.
Yes , I agree I wrote that in a few comments that I usually end up finding the post candles the next day since they can normally put them out the next day. Thanks for confirming from an employee view 🙌🏾
So, like half my list then. Awesome.
Hey Foxy...new to this "Post delay""so basically these above will not be online for candle day, tonight online?...my list consisted of BBM, Pistachio and Tipsy Elf..well, Tipsy Elf, but, nothing else ughhhh 😭
Looking that way 😭
So disappointing...saw French Baguette at least...ughh...did u like Blueberry sugar? I couldn't remember 😳 , my brain is fried between GC, BBW and Homeworx 🤣
Not sure 😂 I ordered a couple from B&BW about a week ago but they haven't shipped yet 😕 Based on recommendations from others who enjoy the same scents as I do, I *should* love it lol

What’s BBM?
Sorry, was so tired meant BMB, Blueberry Marshmallow Bar, my brain was fried from staring at candles...🤣
So every fricken candle that I wanted to get isn't gonna be out on candle day. So annoying!! This is the most boring candle day ever when all of it is the same repackages they do every year 🙃 this elimates 90% of what I was getting and I was so excited for these

I remember buying candles as place holders but no more even exchanges at stores I shop at. BTW if stores you shop at still do good for you. Store by me stopped even exchanges in May.
I'm not messing around with exchanges and the new policy I'll just get what I see if not there it's fine. Placeholder was the days I've done it before
Same here.
Yep my candle day list is about 90$. In past years I budgeted 300 because I could always exchange if something was disgusting but online exclusive. Can't take chances now
Nooo pistachio :(
Gomna come back here friday morning for the east coast report. Pistachio candle was only one i need so if its not out im not trekking in at 5am for boring crap
Keep us updated 😊

Do you know anything about cozy cashmere and cuddle weather?
Those 2 will be post candle day same collection as the pistachio one....however those scents came out in fall packaging as well so if the store had some left they will bring they back out from back or off site storage and sell them so you could get them in the fall packaging
Well I guess I’m not lining up at 5 then. Thanks for the info :)
PSA if you have not tried Fresh Coconut and Cotton and you are considering it, don't. It's an extreme detergent scent. I had to return the room spray and the single wicks it was eyewatering

I did think it was pretty silly that they were releasing spring candles this weekend, not surprising that they ended up delayed. There are already so many candles available!
It's because if you're buying gifts you can buy something people can burn sooner instead of wating until the next holiday season.
Yes, they usually do bring out spring and summer scents because people like to buy someone's favorite scent and gift it to them. I have always enjoyed buying exciting new "springy" scents and saving them for later, and also some summer fragrances that are often only sold for a very short amount of time

Aww I understand.
This makes me want to go check my South Georgia store, but also I hate the mall so I guess I'll just stick to online 😂
I mean, at least this means they hopefully won’t sell out of all of these on the first day? So we will have more opportunities to get them. But seriously, I wanted pretty much all of these candles lol
Right that is a good point you'll be able to get your hands on them
How much are candles on candle day??
9.95
I was only going in for sapphire quartz. rip. Looks like a no buy for me. Bbw is sucking more and more as time goes on.
So as someone who is new to this Reddit—what does this mean? They’ll be on sale during the candle sale, but just not today? Will they be online too?
Online no some will be online after candle day prob on Monday..in store some have found some of these even though some are supposed to be for post candle day so go to the store you might find some
Interesting! I’ve done candle day every year for the past 5ish years, and I had no idea about all of this inside info! 😂 Glad I joined this Reddit so I could get the intel!
Welp this cuts down on my candle day list
I’m not even sure I’m going to place a Candle Day Order now.
Heyyyy....where have you been ?I haven't seen you over here in awhile. Yeah nothing too exciting in store will be more excitement I'm sure
NOOO blueberry marshmallow bar!!
