Great haul! I'm looking forward to the summer collection. I gave up with the flash sale. I often wonder if Scentsy home office is working with an old broken down computer system. I think going forward I will just shop clearance and avoid the flash sales. The flash sales have become too disruptive and difficult to deal with. Last time I looked at my wax inventory sheet, it doesn't appear I'm running out of wax 🤣
Haha - touche about running out of wax! I think the people in charge of the computers must be related to the people in charge of the BBMB voting lists.
Thanks Patricia! Really looking forward to the summer collection. The flash sale was something else....I did grab a warmer - but I agree, just add items to the sale section it would be a better scentsy shopping experience.
They could add sale items in two or three increments spread out over 2-3 weeks. Just do it on the find low and let people discover it on their own. Word of mouth would spread
That was probably one of the most stressful sales I’ve ever been through, lol. I was trying to put things in the cart, it kept bogging down, kind of reminded me of the old days when we had dial up Internet, lol. Everything just dragged. But I finally did get through and grabbed two summer bundles, a few random bars, a body cream, and the festival fir warmer for $25.80 Canadian . I agree with you, just put everything in the clearance and make it easier on us. We don’t need the extra stress in our lives, lol. Hope you get your missing bar, I was looking forward to hearing your thoughts on all of these.
I am such a sucker for the new stars wars collection. I always loved the movies as a kid and how beautiful they made the movie sets, so I imaged I would love to be transported to these “places” by scent. Thanks for sharing!
I almost gave up, but eventually, I was able to get the one thing I really wanted. I agree with you about putting things in clearance and letting us purchase that way.
My sale experience went relatively slowly I was in the queue for an hour and a half. When I finally go in I selected items that stuck my fancy. I finally get to try the Pink Awareness Collection- go me 😊. I didn't pick up any warmer I should have but am on a tight budget at check out two items were taken out of my cart. I'm not sure why 😢 I didn't select more scent circles I could kick myself. I agree with you Patricia they should just add things into clearance and skip the madness. I am happy with my handful of selections. PS-- I got to add my order to a party 🥳 which has never happened during my Scentsy journey 🎉
Oh my goodness, I had the exact same thought yesterday about just putting things in Clearance! I think it would make things easier and less disappointing for all!
Thank you for the review! Both of these collections sound fun! Especially the Star Wars one. I think what has me hesitant to order online is the shipping… and the release dates being so varied. The only order I put in was for the Amazing Grace warmer (for $19) with another clearance bar bc then it was really worth it to pay the $13 shipping. I would like to be a Scentsy consultant (again) but I find that I order about $30-60 a month and it doesn’t meet the minimum qualifying- the fun collections are so frequent it makes more sense for me to just order with a local consultant. She charges me 10% for shipping since she group orders weekly anyway. It just works better for me this way… Although I loved being a consultant! Last month I ordered the Mental Health and Fathers Day, now when I heard there is the Star Wars (so cute!) collection and this summer one, I want to put another order in… 😀😅
If you have a decent size club that would be the time to aim for 200prv in a month, if you ever want to reinstate (which is free btw). If you thought any of your friends and family were looking to put orders in maybe try and align everything. Regardless it sounds like you’ve got it figured out as best as you can right now. ☺️
I like the excitement of a flash sale but the stuff I want always goes so fast. Sometimes I’m working and can’t check it out right when it launches. No plastic bags in Alberta too
It was rough! I couldn’t believe how slow and confusing it was. I kept getting booted out. Grabbed a few things though. Wohoo! For a haul video to lift my spirits!🎉
Thanks for your videos. You have the best way of describing scents. The flash sale was frustrating but I found some good deals. I do love a good mystery bar bundle! I waited 35 minutes to get in and then at checkout all of the pricing was full price, and there was a message at the top that said temporary pricing hiccup you will receive a refund for the price difference. Crossing my fingers they will make it right! I’m curious if others had the same issue. Yikes. Definitely a crazy way of selling merchandise. I agree with your idea about adding things to clearance. I think people would visit the site a lot more often which would be a good thing! Thanks for the haul 😉❤
BANG... u got it.. i have always thought that about flashes...nothing but bad chaos on those days,. i seriously i was gettin upset,, i rarely have money on flash sales days.. if they wd put it in clearance and let us shop as we are able to it wd be GREATLY appreciated!!
I feel like they needed to up sales so they threw in a flash sale. If they consistently replenished clearance people would be enthusiastic about checking the site.
I ended up ordering later in the day as I was busy at work at the start of the sale. Smooth sailing then so I guess that all worked out for me! Only thing I might have bought that was out of stock by then was the bathroom cleaner 🙂
Tatooine is a gorgeously romantic bedroom bar which I’ve clubbed but I could do with it being a tad stronger after curing . Endor ..I put in my hall for the freshness and it did ok reminded me a bit of season of magic . Hoth 🥶 is a winter bar for me and so as long as you get it before November you’ll not miss it 😂
I think on cold Tatooine smells gorgeous and relaxing! I feel like I don’t describe it well but hopefully I can do it justice once I officially warm it.
I kept getting kicked out, but then was able to pick up a few things…a number of things I was excited about got removed from my cart before I finished, so that was disappointing. However, I still got some good bars, and a couple of warmers to give as gifts. I missed all of the flowers-boo hoo-and a couple of scents I had hoped to try. I got others, so I am all good. ☺️
Concerning the Tatooine scent - You had me at Blond wood and Moonflower 😄. I will stick that and Endor in my club to give them a try. (As I recall, Hoth has some mint and those scents do not attract me.) Thanks for the video!!
I hope I’m recalling that scent well enough! Smells a bit like a cross of that one with Vitamin R. We will see once I warm it. Since we all know things can change
I gave up trying to get stuff everytime id go to submit id get a webpage error i agree with you just add stuff into clearence or have a flash sale with no notice might make things go smoother also
Great video, TFS! I had to laugh, I just uploaded an unboxing video with similar products including the SOTM room spray and also noted that pink pineapple is in the Scooby-Doo scent. Great minds lol. That's too bad you are missing the Hoth bar, that was my favorite of the bunch. I get eucalyptus for the "cool winter air" lol.
Thank you Patricia! The haul was a nightmare. Got in after a 15 minute wait in the in the queue and it took me another 45 minutes just to process my order. Hopefully I got everything I ordered.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts! I’m very excited to try the summer collection. I didn’t purchase anything in the flash sale as there isn’t anything I need and trying to cut down on how many orders I put in to cut down on shipping costs
Same problems as everyone else but I did grab some stuff. I don’t think they’ll just do clearance instead of flash sales unless they see a huge drop in flash sale “attendance”, or it costs too much to upgrade their systems to accommodate over 80k people being in the Que.
I think this flash sale was attended, but I suspect quite a few gave up trying to get in or check out. Would be interesting to see sales as compared to other similar sales.
The flash sale was a mess, maybe so many people decided not to bother with it and emptied their carts with all the waiting as my order already shipped 😊
That was the worst Flash sale to date as far as trying to shop. I managed to get a few items, but your idea to put things into clearance is a much better option. Thanks for sharing your haul.
Your comment about eucalyptus on sale reminds me of the same comment Dan Orchard made about bergamot this season😂 Thanks so much for the first sniffs! I think I’ll be getting half of them along with Star Wars. Hope that missing bar ships soon for you! My flash sale experience was the same as many others. Someone mentioned it feeling reminiscent of the dial-up modem days😂😂 Absolutely thought the same thing. It was a blast from the past that would have been more appreciated had I not been swearing at the screen and fighting the urge to flip my laptop. I was able to get some pretty great stuff so the pain and suffering is already a distant memory, much like my sister describes childbirth 😂
I agree that they should stop doing flash sales and put things in clearance instead. I didn’t like the sale. I wish they wouldn’t sell bundles and instead sell the individual scents. I want a dragon fruit and another scent, but the other two I did not want at all. I picked up some dish soap, a couple bars, and a warmer as a gift. I felt like it was mostly cloudberry dreams. And not many laundry whiffs
I agree with you. Why don't they sell the stuff they want to get rid of with flash sale prices im clearance. I was in there for an hour and only got 4 things.
Pretty hair cut! I was working during the sale. My club also just shipped so I do not currently need any more wax. It stinks that it was so frustrating for so many. Sea Breeze sounds nice for summer! I will wait for some reviews and add to club unless I have another order I place. It is good you have video proof that you were missing your bar!😂 The summer collection sounds nice! Thanks for sharing your haul! Smiles, Abby Smith
The Scentsy website was a little dysfunctional as usual. I didn’t get any warmers this time. I purchased the Summer Days Bar Bundle, the Pink Awareness Bundle & the Mystery Bar Bundle plus a few single bars & some Scent Circles. Not a bad haul.
Would be a good idea if they just quietly added things to clearance. But I did grab some goodies today so it was fun. Took so long to check out that I lost some things but that’s ok. Still spent too much! What do you think about Fall Feelin and Red Currant Wreath being in a bundle? They were new last year so expected them to come back. Now not so sure..? I did club both since I really loved them. Sea Breeze sounds really nice! Was excited to get some Pretty and Plum!! Watermelon Wave I adore but I lost during checkout. Was great overall though! Definitely enjoyed your haul video Patricia, Hope you got some goodies!
I’ve seen new releases not return the following year - I think it honestly depends on sales and feedback, plus the deciding factor might be if they need to plump up a small scent category (maybe that’s a deciding factor between axing or giving one more chance.)
From the spring summer I’d suggest Rainbow Sherbet, Coconuts for Coconuts, Bamboo & Rainfall, Coco Lime, Lilacs & Violets, Make a Splash. Also Blueberry Cheesecake, clothesline, Clean Breeze, Johnny Appleseed, Squeeze the Day, Star Wars Light Side Perhaps grab some of those ones to try

I’d like to rewatch them soon

Yes and spread the orders out over time
I was sad to see some of my favorite scents from last fall in the Flash Sale, glad I added them to my Scentsy Club.
Smart! Just like Lisa says - no scent is safe!
Thank you for the review! Both of these collections sound fun! Especially the Star Wars one.

Yes - my theory on restocking clearance would reward the addicts that constantly check clearance too
It was rough! I couldn’t believe how slow and confusing it was. I kept getting booted out. Grabbed a few things though. Wohoo! For a haul video to lift my spirits!🎉
I was only persistent because a local customer wanted a certain warmer. Otherwise I would have given up. I was getting my hair done at the time 👩🏼🦱
@@PatriciaG-NosetoToes That is too much stress while getting your hair done. You are an outstanding consultant 💇♀️ 😬 ❤️🙌

@@PatriciaG-NosetoToes it’s a difficult one to describe .. gave me Vit R vibes but not the same scent
I kept getting kicked out, but then was able to pick up a few things…a number of things I was excited about got removed from my cart before I finished, so that was disappointing. However, I still got some good bars, and a couple of warmers to give as gifts. I missed all of the flowers-boo hoo-and a couple of scents I had hoped to try. I got others, so I am all good. ☺️
I jumped over the flowers but I should have grabbed Coconuts for Coconuts
I also wish they would just put products in clearance rather than have a flash sale.
The deals might not be as good that way is the only thing
The FOMO sales model that Scentsy has makes the flash sales more marketable I think. But I agree with you 100%!
Concerning the Tatooine scent - You had me at Blond wood and Moonflower 😄. I will stick that and Endor in my club to give them a try. (As I recall, Hoth has some mint and those scents do not attract me.) Thanks for the video!!

That Pink Pineapple & Sugar is so familiar. It reminds me of another scent but I’m struggling to connect the dots

Headache saved on your end. The flash sales can be hard to resist so I applaud you for avoiding the temptation in the first place.
Took me an hour to get in, but when I did I picked up a few bars and a warmer.
I got a 3 minute wait time (amazing!!) but took approximately 45 minutes trying to check out
@@PatriciaG-NosetoToes at least check out was quick for me!

Less orders came through on my site compared to most flash sales, so I suspect people gave up. Hopefully they will straighten things out
5:20 I really enjoyed Tatoinne it reminds my husband and I of surf board wax. (Which is a lovely scent to us)
Yes it was my favourite of the two I received 🤣

Bars will sell in clearance. For me personally Flash sales lose their specialness if we have them too often and they aren’t dramatic deals.

Also Blueberry Cheesecake, clothesline, Clean Breeze, Johnny Appleseed, Squeeze the Day, Star Wars Light Side
Perhaps grab some of those ones to try
