    I agree 100% on the shipping…as a fellow Canadian $14 is steep!! I added 8 bars to my scentsy club which is scheduled to arrive tomorrow and ordered doubles of the ones I thought I’d enjoy; I ordered cranberry mango, frosted ginger cookie (2) toasted apple butter (2) , toasted caramel sugar (2) amaretto, whipped vanilla pear, vanilla walnut (2) & falling leaves …personally hoping I only live a couple as my club is getting out of control! lol

    Hi Brandi! Nice haul. If I would have watched this first, you clearly said favorite CAKE scent 😂 Which must be the case with you getting a six pack! I agree with your thought process of watching reviews first on the BBMBs to help you make an educated purchase. The only one I've warmed yet is Carmel Sugar Cone and I'm loving it. I would love to try Carmel Vanilla Delight someday, love me a good caramel scent! I agree with you about Patricia, she's awesome and has a great memory for scents. I also was pleasantly surprised by Cranberry Mango on cold. You will be busy melting through all these. Looking forward to your thoughts on them warmed! Have a great day!

    Happy to hear King Cake is yummy. I have a bar but haven’t warmed it yet. I didn’t haul the consultants kit of BBMBs either. I ordered 15. They actually arrived quite quickly. I ordered them while I was still in Germany on Jan 2nd & they were delivered to my house on Jan 5th. I was arriving back in Canada on the 10th & thought for sure I’d beat the parcel but nope. I’m probably only clubbing Simply Patchouli maybe Frosted Ginger Cookie & Vanilla Walnut. I like Everything Nice & Falling Leaves too. Not sure what to do. 🤷‍♀️

      I had a local order placed through my website a couple of months ago. The customer contacted me after a few days to see why her order wasn’t here yet. I explained the shipping usually takes a couple of weeks and she was shocked. She specifically referenced Amazon arriving 1-2 days after an order.
      I was embarrassed.
      For a large company they should be able to ramp up shipping.

    Good picks Brandi! I didn’t try king cake because I have been disappointed in Scentsys new bakery scents lately so I think I’ll add a bar of it to my club that processes at the end of the month. Whipped vanilla pear was actually strong for me. I did three cubes in my open concept and it was pretty strong it took over my living room/dinning room/kitchen.

    Hi Brandi, great reviews and so glad you picked up some King Cake! Sorry about your shipping. Our weather here in Idaho has been horrible over the past 2 weeks. Snow, wind, and now cold weather. I understand you live way up North and this is nothing( you guys are tough). Our weather could be the cause of the delays in shipments. I took a pass on all bring back my bars only because I am on a no-buy until March 29th and not sure who I will be ordering from then( vendor, reatail) . I am going to be posting update. Thanks for sharing 🥰

    • @BarsBrickswithBrandi

      Hi Kelly! Thanks so much 🥰 I'm not sure if weather was a factor only because Linda was telling me she ordered on the 1st and it was at her door on the 5th (Western Canada) I understand delays happen but have noticed it happening quite a lot lately and it's frustrating when you have to pay so much yet wait so long. I had to laugh when you called us tough 😄 This cold has me 😭 I'm probably the worst Canadian ever... I hate winter sooo much! 🥶😂 A no-buy until the end of March is tough but I love your plan! I'm definitely reigning it in for 2024 as well and totally get it. My plan is to pretty much stick to Scentsy this year (for the most part) and only go in on the offers (collections, lto's, etc) that I know I'll like and warm. For that reason I've already decided to skip the Valentine's Day collection (too much floral) I hope you are doing well and taking it easy my friend ❤ Sending big hugs and continued prayers 🙏🫂

    It took my order a while- maybe 11 or 12 days. I skipped the kit too, was only interested in about 10 of them. I’m not super impressed with this round, good for the club though! As a new consultant (Sept 2022) I’m still wanting to try things that everyone talks about but apparently everyone was tired of the same things being voted back so I’ll have to wait. Luckily they’ve been putting things in clearance and sales so that’s fun! King Cake is really nice but a little light so I’ll let it cure a bit. Loved seeing what you got! Everything Nice was not a love but only warmed it once. Would be nice if they extended it for sure. ☺️
