I so agree Natalie. I was tempted to keep Big Hero 6 but I've got to stand on principal on this one. $9 for a Scentsy bar is outrageous. I would never tell anyone what they should or shouldn't do with their own purchasing decisions but I'm kind of hoping enough people drop the licensed bars to send Scentsy a message. A lot of the people I've talked to are thinking the same way so I guess we shall see 🤷♀️
@@BarsBrickswithBrandi I dropped all licensed bars in my club except for two and going forward I won’t be trying any new licensed bars because I am not paying the difference. I am also in Canada and I didn’t like how we paid 8.50 and now it’s 9.00. A regular bar we are paying a dollar per cube I don’t want to be paying more than that!!
Hi Rachel! Long time no see! Sticky Cinnamon Bun is such a great scent. I'm totally kicking myself for not adding it to my club and hope we see it in some way soon 🤞 I really love the scent of Fried Ice Cream but it leaves the warmer dishes such a mess that I just can't deal with it 😅 I hope you are well!
Down here in South West Ontario between London - Windsor it has been quite warm. Today it is sunny and 6 degrees, no snow here at the moment and I am not complaining. Thanks for the reviews. - Tracey
Hi Brandi … I’m on catch up with videos as I’ve been in Scotland on holiday where there’s snow up on the mountains but where I live in Cambridgeshire we don’t get snow very often. Love that you are rocking the snowman and small tree …I could do Christmas /winter all year round …spring summer scents are not my favs . I agree on the licensed bars ..hitting delete from my club I’ll make do with alternatives. Cinnamon vanilla is such a great performer and love and happiness is divine …wish we had more like these two . I’m so pleased I joined a consultant last may because at least it’s more economical for me to buy my beloved scentsy bars. You are such a bakery lover 🎂 🧁 🍰 ..I m not (caramel chestnut an exception) but love hearing your enthusiasm for them . Disney season of magic had a bit of an odd note for me . Enjoyed watching ..stay safe 😊
Welcome back Jane! I hope you had a lovely, relaxing, fun holiday! Our winter has been so strange this year. Much warmer than we typically get and hardly any snow. Yesterday that changed and we got dumped on, it's like a winter wonderland out there ❄ The temp dipped quite a bit too and is currently -14°C which is still a lot warmer than normal (usually we're at -25 to -30) but it feels drastic because we've been getting temps as warm as +5 lately. All in all I can't complain. I'm not a fan of the cold so this winter has been a nice change of pace 🌞
Great empties Brandi! Im regretting not trying Strawberry Sweetie after hearing some warm reviews on it. I remember you really liked the raspberry lollipop when it came out. I loved Caramel Sugar Cone, it went in my club. Pinkberry Fluff was very pretty but too light. Agree with you on Peach and White Amber being beautiful but touchy to surrounding temperatures. If Sugar comes back again its going straight in my club! You got through a lot of wax. Montana has had an unusually warm winter too overall and not enough snow which is concerning for forest fires come summer. As much as Im ready for spring, we need the snowpack first!
Thanks Alli! Hopefully some of the bbmb's make their way into clearance or a flash sale so you can try Strawberry Sweetie 🤞 You're definitely right about the lack of snow. As much as I'm enjoying the warmer weather the fire risk for this spring/summer is concerning 😟
Here in Louisiana we’re having mid/upper 60s as highs this week. Mid January we were iced in for 3 days(totally not normal for us). I’m not liking this warm weather though. We don’t get enough winter and i like to savor it. I agree about the Disney bars. Going to get my club ones this month and then cut most out. Very sad since I have several in there that I love and just got Dumbo- been waiting on that one forever to come back. Love seeing all your empties, we have very similar tastes (bakery!). I’ve only tried one fragrance flower in Fluffy Fleece and really can’t smell it in our little water closet. I have several more in my stash to try.
Hi Beth! 👋 Living in LA you must be used to some pretty hot weather so I can definitely see why you would savor winter! I'm really sad about Scentsy's decision re: licensed bars. If you're going to raise the price on anything just make sure it's not the wax, that's their bread & butter. I think they're going to see a big dip in sales and I hope that sends a clear message. Ugh... Dumbo! I know! 😭 I just recently added it back to my club this last time it returned and now I have to boot it ☹ Thanks for the heads up on Fluffy Fleece. I think I'll still get one to try just because I haven't yet but I'll set my expectations a little lower 😄 Happy Friday! Have a great weekend!
Watching this 6 days late. I love hearing your thoughts on scents. I’ve taken my licensed bars out of my club. I had Ravenclaw & Mandalorian clubbed - I love them but I’m making a statement. The weather here in Southern Alberta has been crazy. I came home from Europe mid-January to a deep freeze - so cold they add to cancel flights I barely made it home. Then by February 1st all the snow was gone & we broke a 93 year record it was 16 Celsius 😳 It’s still nice but down around single digits during the day which is normal for this time of year.
Hi Linda! I'm with you on making that statement. I hope enough people send that same message and get their attention. Oh wow, your weather sounds even more crazy than ours. I'm so glad you made it home safely. 16° in February is insane! Wow! We're normally around -25 to -30's this time of year but it's been anywhere from -3 to +5 these past few weeks. We had a cold snap in January in the -20's but it was only for a short time then back to the warmer temps. I'm definitely not complaining because I'm not a fan of the cold but the lack of snow does make me concerned about forest fires this year. I think mother nature got confused and dumped the entire country's worth of snow on poor Nova Scotia the other day! 😱 I hope you are well my friend and hope to see you again soon! 😊
Coastal Sunset is amazing in the fragrance flower, I love that one so much! I keep hoping they still have a secret stash of Fiji Flower that they will throw in a flash sale one day. The performance is outstanding! 😊
Hi Brandi. I’m delayed in watching but we are having unseasonably cold and wet weather. Although about two weeks ago we did hit the low 70’s for two days. This past week was cold, wet and gusts as high as 40mph. Today is sunny but on the cooler side. Hope you are doing well!
Hi Martha 👋 I'm sorry about your weather, that doesn't sound very fun. I'm enjoying the break from our typical -25°C to -30°C this time of year tho, I'm not a fan of the cold at all. Happy Friday! Have a great weekend 😊
What a great haul! I’m excited to try some goose creek! So many goodies you used up this month. And yes I don’t think I’m to far from you. Toronto has been 5 degrees.
Hi Brandi. Late to the game watching your awesome video. You went through some good bars. That's not right that Scentsy would hike their licensed bars. But I would not be surprised if they raised the cost of regular wax bars too in the near future. Just saying. We are having warm temps here in Idaho too. January started off with - 20's Fahrenheit. Now today is 43. But I like the warmer temps. 😊 Take care and thanks for sharing 😊❤
Hi Kelly 👋 There's been rumblings about an increase on regular bars toward the end of this year but I don't know where that information is coming from. With the way things are going it certainly wouldn't surprise me either. We've been having similar weather here and I don't mind it a bit either. It's nice to take a break from our typical -25° to -30°C February's 🥶
Hey Brandi! It’s been unusually warm here in FL but I don’t mind because I hate cold weather. I’m sure I’ll feel differently in July 😅 I had several licensed bars in my club but like you they have to go. Hopefully at some point they’ll pop in flash sales but even if they don’t we as consumers decide what we will allow. If we stop purchasing licensed bars Scentsy will get the hint and do something about it. I also tend to enjoy Scentsy bars more than the licensed ones anyway so I can’t justify paying $1 more.
Hi Courtney! Haha, I hear you, I'm not a fan of the cold either and am glad to have the warmer weather this year. I agree with everything you said 💯% I'm totally on the same page with the licensed bars. I hope you're having a great weekend! 😊
I can definitely see where you get that. It was so odd to me how much it changed from cold to warming. Sometimes there can be a difference but it isn't usually that drastic.
Such amazing empties, Brandi! Thank you so much for sharing! It was very unseasonably warm on Friday last week in Central Maryland. I was working an evening shift and brought my sweatshirt with me since I knew I would need it when I got off. I didn’t purchase from Scentsy in January but I’ll see how things go for February. God bless you and your family, Brandi!
Thanks so much Melissa! Oh wow, it looks like quite a few places are warmer than usual, it's ok, I'll take that rather than the freezing cold 😄 God bless you and your family as well ✝️
When we did the bathroom reno a few years ago the soaker tub was my top priority. I honestly didn't care what the rest of the bathroom looked like as long as I had the tub 😄
It’s very warm here in WI. It’s been 30-40’s here. A month ago it was below zero. It’s warmer than normal and I’m okay with that! Now back to your video. ❤ I enjoy Goose Creek candles.
I am also in Canada and it’s so warm for this time of year we are plus 5 today and at night time going down to -5. We have zero snow and it’s the start of February this is normally our coldest time of year and full of time. We did get out sledding once this season but that’s it. Soo I have a question, what did you pay for shipping and duty fees for goose creek? I smelt hot pink cocoa in store and I didn’t end up getting it and when I went back they didn’t have any so I ended up getting pink lavender espresso.
Hi Jessica! This is normally the coldest time of year for us too. I'm happy for the break this year! 🌞 My hubby? Not so much, he's only been on the trails once this year too and they weren't in the greatest of shape. There were no duty fees for my GC order and shipping was $14 (so the same we pay for Scentsy) when you go on their website they recognize your location and give you all Canadian prices. Hot Pink Cocoa was a fantastic candle, I'm really kicking myself that I didn't get a back up. I love Pink Lavender Espresso too and thankfully do have a back up of that one ❤
Brandi- I have a few bars of your licensed bars. If you would like to either do a vendor wax swap or pay just the shipping ( from the states) I’d be happy to send them to you.
All licensed bars leaving my club too. And raising prices will make it easier for me to majorly cut my club .

So far Coastal Sunset and Go Go Mango were my best performing flowers. I’d love to try Fiji.

Frosted Ginger Cookie smells like Trix cereal to me. I love cereal scents but not enough to club.
I can definitely see where you get that. It was so odd to me how much it changed from cold to warming. Sometimes there can be a difference but it isn't usually that drastic.
