They can see smells? Seems like there might be a bigger problem than the missing candles...

[quote]Missouri mom Cindy Spurgeon placed an order for eight holiday candles on Dec. 6. "It's kind of a running joke in my family that I always have so many Yankee Candles," she told BuzzFeed News.
But 10 days later, her order of Christmas Cookie, Red Apple Wreath, Christmas Eve, and Home for the Holiday candles had not yet been sent.
She has shelves set aside in her rural Missouri home closet specifically for the 12-15 Yankee Candle candles she has at any given time and ranks them according to season. "I love the fall and winter ones, they are my absolute favorite," said Spurgeon, 61. "It gets to be September and I start getting their pumpkin and apple. And then I slide right into Christmas. And this year I’m going to be without Christmas!"
This is quite literally the frauiest thing that ever fraued.

All frauness aside, I've found the on-line shopping experience quite a bit less than stellar this holiday season.
Too many of these retailers are making promises they know they can't keep.
I'm looking at you Target.

Op, don't be so gullible. The candle company is pushing this story.

At this point, if you don't order your Christmas packages by early December, you stand a better-than-average chance of not getting it by the 25th. After the 10th or so, you may as well just go to the mall and buy shit in person.

Why would the candle company push a story that makes them seem like incompetent dicks? Going by this article, their customer service is worse than Comcast's, which is saying something.

In a couple years, all shipping and delivery will be robots on A.I. Then it will really be seamless and fast, though millions will be out of jobs. Merry Christmas!

And not a single, on-line retailer will advise you of this before you place your order. It's get the money in the front door first and foremost, and actually fulfilling the order takes a back seat with much less priority.

The Yankee Candle at my local mall is usually pretty dead. Most of the fraus here get their candles at Bath and Body Works

What's wrong with Glade, bitches?! Or does it cause fibromyalgia?

Was I not supposed to jam my Cranberry Fudge Glade candle up my dry hole? I’m tired all the time and it hurts when a gentle breeze hits me. Won’t any doctor help me?

Her kids will be relieved they finally breathe, without be choked to death by Yankee candle stench.

Are her kids French symbolist poets? They frequently used synesthesia (confusion of the senses) in their works.

Yankee Candle is basically the official company of the "I'd like to talk to a manager" twats

The mom in Missouri who has the shelves set aside in her closet specifically for the 12-15 Yankee Candle candles needs to substitute with some Missouri Moonshine. Her children will have the Best. Christmas. Ever.

The fraus can always check out Harry Slatkin, the over-photo-shopped Jew who is a big scented drama queen on QVC.
