My wife went in yesterday (we fortunately/unfortunately have a B&BW down the hill from us) and proceeded to buy half the Summerween lineup. :cry::oops:
Have her check the site daily 'cause last year they had a 50% off halloween flash sale for 1 day less than two weeks after release.

I bought like $600 of stuff last year during launch and with that sale I re-bought and returned those items immediately on my 'old receipt' and got $300+ back (since I also had coupons that stacked).
This year has a lot less stuff I'm interested in, only $200 MSRP I want so I'm actually waiting for this sale to buy in general so I only have to fork over $100.
 
hehe......seems only fair everytime I log on to the main page I see that nice orange jeep :D
Point taken. Except she drives it more than me (I think I'm getting screwed in this arrangement) :ROFLMAO:

Good tip. I'm all for sales. But like you, she's not as excited about the selection as last year, but we'll see what comes in the coming weeks.
 
I saw that the store near me had some fall scents out...I was really hoping for the return of the Autumn Drive body wash but didn't find it. Hopefully they'll put more out in the coming weeks. I did use a reward for the Vampire Blood body wash, though.
 
I didn't buy any Halloween candles because I don't like the sweet scents and I already have a couple of Pumpkin Carving from last year but I did buy a Vanilla Noir 3-wick candle a couple of days ago during the $12.95 sale. It is a men's fragrance (rich vanilla, bergamot spice and patchouli musk) but it smells like fall/Halloween to me. I'm going to use this in the new black cat 3-wick holder.
 
Last year's was also $275


The year before that it was $250


In 2022 it was $200 but it was also much shorter


Because in 2021 it was $250 and the large style (this one is my fav but alas I wasn't collecting anything during the covid era).
Who does B&BW think they are, Grandin Road?!?!

I'm glad I don't collect any sort of houses/villages in general. These are cute but not $275 cute.
 
All the stuff is really cute this year so far. But the ceramic houses have become way over priced. Never bought one but I bought a cute haunted house candleholder from Yankee Candle when they still had one at the mall. Got it on sale for $15 and I feel like that was a unicorn. A couple years ago I also bought an old-fashioned looking ceramic candleholder that changed faces from regular to ghoul. That was also about 15-16 dollars on sale and I got it from Bath and Body Works online when they were having a rare free shipping on any order deal. I consider that a unicorn as well.
As for the scents they have this year, I like them ok. Gotten several of the soaps and the I Scream Float body cream. Not very Halloween-y imo but a really nice scent. Does anyone remember years ago when they had Harry Slatkin Halloween apple-scented skeleton soaps that lit up? That has to be one of my all-time favorites.

I loved the Slatkin scents at B&BW. Here's a link to his current Halloween lineup: Halloween Candles
 
FYI - Halloween items are 50% off now for two days beginning this morning, so I placed a new order and will “return” my original order to get the price difference (I will physically return the newest items though). I also grabbed the coffin/bat candle holder, witchy cabinet and the sweet shop wallflower plugs and had a 20% coupon I had been saving in case they had a sale like this so that stacked on as well.
