Bath & Body Works has officially announced their annual Candle Day event, and let me tell you, it’s everything we’ve been waiting for. Think: hundreds of 3-wick candles at their lowest prices of the year. Yes, you heard that right—just $9.95 each (normally $24.95–$26.95). Let’s dive into why this event is a must-shop and how to absolutely crush it like the pro shopper you are. See them all here
Why Candle Day is the Ultimate Shopping Holiday 🎄
Bath & Body Works doesn’t just do Candle Day—they make it a full-blown experience. This year, they’re pulling out all the stops with more than 180 candles across 140+ exclusive fragrances, including 50 Candle Day exclusives and six brand-new scents. Oh, and did I mention the limited-edition collab with Bridgerton? Yes, we’re talking about candles inspired by Penelope Featherington and Colin Bridgerton (swoon). Plus, holiday classics like Winter Candy Apple (celebrating its 25th anniversary!) and Fresh Balsam are ready to go straight to your cart. See them all here
And can we talk about the vibes? This year’s kickoff event was next-level: a giant 12-foot LED candle lighting in NYC, complete with a “Candle Torch Run” featuring Olympic athletes. Bath & Body Works knows how to make us feel like we’re part of something big. Click here to shop the best scents now before they’re gone.
How to Shop Like a Candle Day Pro 🛒
If you’re planning to shop Candle Day (and honestly, why wouldn’t you?), here are my tried-and-true tips to make the most of this iconic event:
- Get there early: Doors open at 6 a.m., and trust me, the early bird gets the best scents. Popular fragrances sell out FAST.
- Make a list: It’s easy to get overwhelmed by all the options (hello, sensory overload). Jot down your must-haves beforehand so you don’t miss out.
- Bring reinforcements: Shopping buddies make everything better—and they can help you carry all those candles. Pro tip: Bring a wagon or reusable bags if you’re stocking up big time.The also hand out reusable bags at the door while supplies last.
- Stack those coupons: If you’ve got Bath & Body Works coupons or rewards saved up, now’s the time to use them. You can score even bigger savings!
- Stay hydrated: This is basically a shopping marathon. Treat yourself to a festive Starbucks drink before diving in—it’s practically self-care.
- Be mindful in-store: Every year, I hear candles crashing to the floor. Let’s keep it classy.
But hold up, it gets even better! Bath & Body Works just launched this rewards program, and I’m all in. I’ve already snagged my free item reward a few times, and it feels like I just won something every time.
Here’s the deal: every time you shop, whether you’re in-store or online, you rack up points. Those points add up, and then boom—free stuff! It’s honestly a vibe to walk into the store, grab something for free, and just walk out like a boss. (of course I stop by the register first to redeem my freebie, haha)
On the days I’m redeeming my free item, I keep it simple. I just go in, grab my freebie, and head to the register like, “This is it, folks!” There’s something about that moment that just hits different. (Sign up here or keep reading)
