ScentSationals & Better Homes Scented Wax Cubes Haul



This is a few week old Wal-Mart haul!  As we know, I am quite obsessed with scented wax cubes for my tart burners.  I cannot walk into a Wal-mart without popping by the candle section and seeing if they have any more new ScentSationals or Better Homes wax cubes on the shelf.  I literally do not need another wax cube, but I’m obsessed with amazing smelling things and since I have burners in 4 rooms in my house (3 stand-alone larger units and 1 wall plug-in unit).  I happen to like really crisp, clean smelling scents and these four really peaked my interest so of course they had to find a spot in my cart.  In case you are not aware, these retail for $2/ea and contain 6-wax cubes in each container.

The scents I picked up are as follows:

ScentSationals – Vanilla Woods
ScentSationals – Illusion
Better Homes – White Suede Driftwood
ScentSationals – Fireside

QUESTION:
Do you like the ScentsSational and/or Better Homes wax cube scents?

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!

Another Scented Wax Cube Haul -- I admit I have a problem...


I've taken the first step -- I've admitted I have a problem.  And I realize full and well that I keep buying these scented wax cubes even though I DON'T NEED anymore!  But I keep finding myself in Wal-Mart and for some reason Wal-Mart tends to have new shipments of these cubes in while I am there.  Truthfully, it's starting to overtake me (haha).  My boyfriend was looking at a 3-tier bookcase and I was in the aisle behind the aisle he was in smelling wax cubes.  Great give and take, right?  When he was ready to go, I was sticking these scents under his nose inquiring his thoughts (since we do live together, he will undoubtedly have to live with the smell -- thoughtful, right!?).  Since it was nearing closing time (they were literally paging to bring items up front or be locked inside forever -- okay so the last part is a stretch) I decided to stick with the 3 I had in my hands because these were a splurge purchase.  The 3 fragrances I picked up are as follows:

Better Homes:
- Sugared Melon Kiwi
- Enchanted Evening Walk

Scentsational:
- Date Night
