SHOP 'N' GO: Black Friday Haul

-

 
 So, my bf and I dragged out of bed around 4:30 in the morning to get ready to go to the mall. I'm not a morning person by any means and compounded with the fact that I was still recovering from a food coma from Thanksgiving and suffering from a minor hangover from mixin vodka and cheap wine, I was quite cranky and not in the mood to do anything but sleep. My light at the end of the tunnel was all of the fun stuff I'd get at BBW in a little while.
 
We arrived at the mall around 5:30. We were both expecting a wild, foaming at the mouth mob but the mall was surprisingly quiet...much to our delight. We walked around to waste time for BBW to open at 6. We spent most of the time at Macy and bought a couple things that were on sale (plus we had coupons to use). Finally 6 came and we made a beeline to our favorite store. I knew exactly what candles I wanted (and no not that "exclusive" hot mess Buttercream Mint) as well as soaps. Honestly that's all I wanted. Anyhoo, I got up the counter and had all of my $10 off $30 and free item coupons ready to go. My bf was worried that they wouldn't let us coupon stack whereas I was confident that they were. My bf finally spoke up asked if they did and the cashier (who I assume was seasonal) informed us that we couldn't and we'd have to do separate transactions...
 
W....T....F?1?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
 
I was so friggin annoyed. Before I could say anything, the cashier called a more experienced cashier over to help out. She worked out so more magic with the coupons and out came the total that was much less than we both anticipated.
 
So this is what we got!
 
 
1 Holiday edition Eucalyptus Spearmint shower gel
 
1 Snowkissed Mint deep cleansing soap
 
1 Holly Citrus Wreath deep cleansing soap
 
1 Lemon Meringue Cheer
 
1 Bigelow Elixir Black Cheer body spray and cologne
 
1 Fresh Sparkling Snow anti-bac
 
1 Bigelow Premium Shave Cream
 
1 Snow Day 3wick
 
1 Winter 3wick
 
1 Mint Chocolate 3wick
 
2 Sparkling Icicles 3wicks
 
2 Cranberry Pear Bellini
 
1 Black Tie 3wick
 
1 Champagne Toast 3wick
 
 
We saved a grand total of $164!!!! My bf is still amazed at how much we saved!
 
So that ladies and gents is my Black Friday Haul!
 
Sometime this week I'll be posting my winter haul collective about everything my bf and I bought to use for the whole winter season!

MY LAST POST: End of an Era

-
Have you ever looked back at something in your life that you were once passionate about and/or obsessed with and over time, you found yourself not feeling the same way anymore? Perhaps sort of going thru the motions with it or just completely over it but not ready to admit it? That's how I feel about B&BW...more to the point, that's how I feel about talking about B&BW as a reviewer. I've mentioned before that I stopped posting regularly on IG. During last year's lockdown, I would pop my head in with a post or a story just to keep in touch a bit and show I was alive...only to see my post not get as much attention as they used to as well as also watching one follower after the next unfollow me. Apparently if you're not churning out daily content, folks can't be bothered with you, regardless of what's going on in your life. At the start of 2020, I had a little over 6000 followers (even that annoyed me as there were accounts who started later than me and

CANDLE RETROSPECTIVE: Brozeblogger's Top 20 Candles OF ALL TIME

-
Well dear readers, today's New Year's Eve - we're almost at the finish line and soon we'll be able to wave goodbye and not so fond farewell to the dumpster fire that was 2020. Normally, as per my own tradition, in honor of New Year's I would write a retrospective look back on the past year and list what I thought were the best new scents that were released. Obviously I couldn't do that this year - with the pandemic, I've been avoiding stores thus couldn't do my usual WALK N SNIFFs nor did I particularly buy very much as I'm not about that shipping/handling plus tax life. But as this this New Years hits a bit differently than past ones and is the beginning of a new decade, I thought I do something different. I thought I'd do a real retrospective and look back at some of my favorite scents spanning from my time as a review and as Bronzeblogger - some from now till back in 2013 when I started this blog. I'm gonna avoid seasonal rideordie loves l

NEWNESS UPDATE: Spring 2021 Candles

-
 Well we made it to 2021! I personally feel like the new year started last week on January 20th; the world got a little less crazy and I feel like I can breath again. No, things are certainly not ideal and nowhere near back to the normal but it's slowly getting there. I hadn't had much to say on here lately. I didn't engage in any SAS shenanigans for obvious reasons. Besides a few wf bulbs during the most recent sale, I haven't really bought anything. I've kinda just been laying low and slimming down my collection as I'm not about the collecting/stocking up life anymore; either burning things or giving and/or selling them away. Occasionally I peep my head into social media to see what's poppin and what newness (that I won't get to see or smell for myself to review) is heading our way. I debated whether or not it was worth posting a newness update; after putting it off and hemmingandhawwing, I decided I might as well. So here we are. So as you may (or may
