So imagine my excitement when these wonderful candles were paired up with bunco! Each player had a $20 buy in, multiplied by 12 players, the total was $240. At the end of the game that total was divyed up and given to the winners as Gold Canyon credit. For example two of us tied for most wins. We could have rolled the dice as a tiebreaker but we decided to split the winnings and each got $37.50. After deducting my $20 buy in, I had $17.50 to use on my purchases. Not too shabby =)
This is what I ended up buying, the descriptions are straight from Gold Canyon's site:
With subtle hints of sweet vanilla musk and organic wildflowers, the scent of handpicked blackberries transforms into our classic pillar in a regal shade of purple.
This soft, woodsy fragrance has the invigorating aroma of the great outdoors.
We've captured the aromatic freshness of this juicy fruit, a citrus hybrid of the sweet and tangy tangerine and the tart grapefruit ancestor, the pomelo.
If you are interested in buying some of these yummy smelling candles, you can head over to the Gold Canyon site and browse around. Too bad they haven't invented scratch-and-sniff computer screens yet, because although the scent descriptions are divine, you really have to smell them to understand just how amazing they are!

I’ve never heard of this candle company, but it sounds great! The only one I know of around here is Party-Lite. Bunco sounds like so much fun. The only time I have seen it played was on Real Housewives of Orange County.
ReplyDeleteThe blackberry & vanilla sounds divine!
The last candle sounds like it smells delicious! You're right, too bad they don't make scratch and sniff computers! It would really be useful right now :-)
