So... John & I went to the mall last week when we had to get some necessities that we lost in the flood.... when I was walking down the mall, just window shopping and all of a sudden I see it...

Big white store... words spelling out.... Y A N K E E - C A N D L E


Me:


They JUST opened like 2 weeks ago I guess, and I was definately not aware of this happening!

This is not a good thing, I went in and was in heaven! The closest Yankee Store we have is an hour away, and now I have one 20 minutes away- WOOT!!

I know all you Yankee Candle lovers would understand my excitement

I already have both of them 20 minutes away in the same mall, now I have a reason to LIVE!

Isn't it just the simple things in life... like your favorite store coming to your area
Now if we would just get a Cheesecake Factory I would be happy

I've never even seen a Yankee Candle although I've certainly heard of them. I'll be in the US next week so maybe I'll check out some places (in between golf games
). Are there any stores just south of Buffalo near Pennsylvania? We are golfing at Peak n' Peak (not sure of spelling on that - could be Peek n' Peak. My friend Debbie did the arranging so I'm not certain.

These candles must be pretty special since I've actually heard a lot about them.

I know there are stores in Buffalo and Pennsylvania....just not sure where they are in relation to where you are going to be.

Linda, check out The Bay and Home Outfitters. They have Yankee Candle in their stores out here, so I would imagine they'd be in the East too. It will certainly not be as broad a selection as the actual Yankee Candle stores, but it's pretty good, I think.

Cool for you Kenzie!! I bet that made you feel a lot better instantly!! You should spend hours and hours in there just to relax!
Tell John it's been prescribed by a doctor!

I buy the car air freshners & put them in my bedroom or by litterboxes!
I'm not allowed actual candles because Damita lights herself on fire.
But the tart warmers....OMG I've got like 8 of those!

Oh man! I miss Yankee Candle. I should go by Danielle's suggestion and get someone to get them for me and pay them back!
