Deceiving us about the cost of candles, JHDK? That is truly wick-ed.Rather than wax eloquent, I will simply forgive you.Besides, I'm trying to taper off on making so many bad puns.

Major candle news!

I've been lying to you all and I sincerely apologize.

Went to Walmart today to get some groceries and picked up a few more candles as always. Turns out these candles are NOT $0.96. They are actually $0.94/each! Bigtime savings. Here I was going on and on about these $0.96 candles while I was actually paying far less for them all along.

I hope you all can find it in your hearts to forgive me.



Side note: See that little lizard thing? My mom bought that at the gift shop at the exit of Pirates of the Caribbean when I was like 8 on a trip to Disney World. That thing stayed in their bedroom for years. It was with them when they moved to FL and my dad even kept it displayed on a shelf once my mom was gone. Now it lives on in front of my TV where I can't help but see it everyday. It still has the price sticker on it. It was $7.95. Stupid thing would probably cost like $30 now. Who needs a 401k when you have a wooden segmented lizard constantly appriciating in value?

You could have paid a whole $1 at the dollar store for them.

Walmart always advertizes they are rolling back prices. Maybe they were $.96 last time. But poor Pedro didn't need the extra .02 cents a day he got for candle picking and will now live on .03. So they passed the savings on to you. Burn the candle now for Pedro.

Dude, I'm no Rockefeller. $0.06 extra per candle? That would break me.

Memo to Cynthia Black: Keeping your grandmother in a freezer does not count as "social distancing." Not only that, "abuse of a corpse" is a crime.

A woman kept her grandmother's body hidden in a basement freezer for 16 years in social security scheme, police say

Last year, police in Pennsylvania found old human remains in a freezer. Now, an investigation has concluded that it was all part of a scam to collect social security checks.

Late breaking candle news!

The last candle, that I blew out and relit 3 times, set a new record...26 hours 16 minutes!

Here's the little fella hanging on for dear life near the end. What a trooper!



I just started a new one. It's blue and "garden rain" scent. Let's see how this one does. It's 4 minutes into its burning right now. You can do it buddy!

Very exciting candle news!

At Walmart again today and of course I visit the candle aisle, the best aisle in the store. The $0.94 candle shelf is pretty sparse these days so I take what I can get, not all of the scents are worth my hard-earned almost dollar. However today, to my shock and amazement, there was a new scent! PAPAYA PASSION! They smell nice unlit and are a shade of red in between the dark red apple pie scent and the light red cranberry mandarin. My garden rain candle is still holding on but Papaya Passion is up next. I also got a friend for my candles. I'll report back on both in time.
