Haulage: Tart Burners & Wax Fragrance Cubes

I went to Walmart today to pick up a few things and inadvertently spent my way through the entire store buying much more than anticipated.  I will admit I’ve had a plug-in burner on my buy list for a while and my local Walmart doesn’t carry them, but the much larger Walmart a few exits up on the highway does.  So I ended up going there today after going to zumba and Kohls’.  I was breezing past the fabric section to head to the candle section, when I noticed an array of fragrance cubes on this shelf.  So I zipped on over and spotted these SUPER ADORABLE limited edition was burners.  One was the stand-alone plug-in unit and since it was an owl and would go well in my bathroom I snagged it.  I then saw a full-sized burner so I picked that up as well – again in the owl design.  I have wanted another full size burner but some of the designs Better Homes and Scentsational has are rather … goddy for the lack of a better term.  These are nice sleek white porcelain so it goes nicely in my living room as well as in the bathroom.  No strong classes of décor .

Of course I also picked up a few more packs of was fragrance cubes.  The fall scents (they were more pumpkin and fire) but they all struck me to be overpowering and just not something I’d want to smell in my house.  And it’s not like I need anymore - my basket of fragrance cubes is over flowing.  But in my mind I said “I’m buying 2 more burners… so I’m going to need more fragrance.”  I’ve got a problem.

Here’s what I picked up:
-    Better Homes – Owl Scented Wax Warmer (large size) - $15
-    Better Homes – Owl Plug-in wax warmer - $12
-    ScentSationals – Faded Denim
-    Better Homes – Exotic Sandwood Musk
-    ScentSationals – Sunlit Meadows
-    ScentSationals – Calypso Sands

So there you have it, my Better Homes & ScentSational haul!

Glade Expressions Collection – thanks BzzAgent!

Has an unpleasant scent to it – not a cucumber scent but more of a harsh alcohol scent.  Product burns on skin just slightly, particularly around nose area.  Very sticky, had to really scrub hands to get liquidy product off.  Product is green in the package, but when applied to my skin it appears clear.  As it dries, skin starts to feel tight.  Skin feels fabulous afterwards!

I got all of these Glade products for essentially free all thanks to BzzAgent.  I ended up not realizing the free coupons were on the other side of the coupon package I received from BzzAgent, so I went to the store and combined the coupon with a $1 off Glade from Targets website and paid 99 cents for a diffuser and a starter kit.  After BzzAgent advised that the free coupons were on the other side of the packet (duh, I’m so ditzy sometimes!) I went back to the store to get my freebies since I loved what I tried so far.  I essentially got everything else for free because for some reason the free coupons went in as the maximum value ($7.49 and $4.99) instead of the $2.99 and $5.99 the products would have cost.  I didn’t realize it until I left the store and went home (I purchased a slew of other items so it wasn’t noticeable at first).

The Glade Expressions Collection is probably the best collection Glade has come out with, especially with the fragrance mists.  I feel like the mists are so long lasting and I can honestly smell the fragrance in the air when I leave and then return to a room.

The oil diffuser comes with a very contemporary decorative sleeve.  The oil diffuser actually drops down into the middle of the device and allows for a nice sleek holster for your fragrance.  The fragrances come in three scents all of which are very fruity yet homey.

The fragrance mists come in four scents and I happen to really enjoy the mists over the diffusers simply because I feel Glade stepped it up with their mists and made them long lasting.  I would say these smell as good or even better than the mist sprays by Febreeze.  Hands down the BEST scent in the line is the Cotton & Italian Mandarin.  And now that I feel as though I’ve been blabbing about how amazing this scent is – that’s one of the reasons I’ve been having the hardest time finding it anywhere.  Seriously, Glade, if you make this into a perfume, I’ll buy a case.  I’m crazy about clean scents – I love cotton smelling room sprays/candles/etc and this is one of the best I’ve smelled.

Now if you haven’t tried these, I would strongly recommend them.
