    Sounds really good and i would buy one for Crimbo pressies but.....


    They've sold 1,250+ so far, would they have that amount in stock to guaranteee christmas delivery for everyone?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,396 ✭✭✭lindtee


    Looks good alright, but I'd be worried that I wouldn't actually get it for christmas considering how many have been bought already and still over 26 hours left. I bought some candles already from www.yankeestores.ie and found them great, very fast to deliver and sorted out a problem with my order very quickly.

    Good deal but same as above I'd be worried that I wouldn't get them for christmas.
    Anyone know any shops that have them half price? In Cork maybe :)
    Loads of places always have them half price but I haven't been taking much notice lately and want some for presents

    Homestore have them at half price at the moment and its the full range I think. Although I think the deal above is lovely I would be very, very, very surprised if they get them out by christmas. Also says subject to availabilty on the deal page, at nearly 1,400 bought so far I'd be surprised if they had that much in stock to meet the amount of orders.

    Nice one :D
    I knew there was somewhere I pass regularly with them half price atm, could even see the sign in my head but couldn't think of where

    Got one of these deals before off yankee candles and delivery was very swift I must say.

    I'm tempted now! Was there as many as this sold when you ordered the last time? It does look very nice but I'd be so sad:( if I didn't have it for christmas. (even though I would be buying it for me:pac:)

    Can second the OP, I ordered from these guys before for the tumbler deal which also sold loads and they delivered within 2 days. The only thing I don't like about this one is its all Christmas scents which aren't always the nicest.

    They have another good deal on their website for 6 mid sized tumblers for €39.

    One of the comments on the site is the following so I would be confident they have stock (at least I hope mine arrives as I ordered last night :)).

    Peter Yankee for Yankee Candle commented about 1 hour ago.
    Delivery update = Every order received up to 10am this morning has already been dispatched (over 1200) for delivery tomorrow & Monday.

    Lastbuilders

    We are now working on orders received after 10am and we expect that every order received up to 3pm today will be dispatched today fro delivery tomorrow or Monday by DPD.

    I think the Christmas scents have disimproved a bit. I bought the Red Apple Wreath scent and while is smells lovely in the jar, there is very little scent off it when it is burning. Even after burning it all evening, I can't really smell it when I come into the room. Some of the other Christmas smells that I have sniffed this year don't seem great.

    That said, this is a great deal, if you got it in time for Christmas, you have got 5 lovely presents for €55.

    Got mine today after ordering yesterday! There was a breakage in the box but I rang their customer service and they were very helpful. Said they will get a replacement out to me shortly.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,157 ✭✭✭Compton


    Ordered today, thanks for the heads up OP.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 41 mrsfraw


    Thanks OP, great deal!:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,104 ✭✭✭ryaner777


    Thanks OP, should be able to make up a nice hamper or two with these for the in-laws.

    Rang the naas store and they said they had loads in stock available for collection.

    Wouldn't worry about stock issues.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 295 ✭✭mccarte2


    Bought mine yesterday morning just after it was launched. Redeemed on Yankee site straight away. Received dispatch email this morning and it just arrived about half an hour ago. Super service. Great deal.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,712 ✭✭✭branners69


    Wife was delighted with this, thanks OP!

    Did the same, but says on website Order processed "No".....Nothing yet...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,076 ✭✭✭maxer68


    I'm near to their place in Toughers near Newbridge and it seems all the deals are pre-packed and sitting in a warehouse and the only thing that needs to be done is an address label to be applied.

    Her indoors goes there regularly and it seems they have a little army working there on orders all the time.

    Me too, however i received a confirmation email from yankee.ie. I rang them and they said that once we received that email we should receive it monday.(To ring again monday evening if we don't) They haven't updated systems due to the surge of orders.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 104 ✭✭snalan


    Thanks very much, just ordered now, hopefully they be here for Xmas


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,157 ✭✭✭Compton


    Yep, Mine says no too, hopefully get it on Monday :)

    They dont have the full range on sale but a lot of them are on sale. I got two of the big ones today for 13 euro each so thanks for the heads up loads of browny points..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,597 ✭✭✭anniehoo

    Just checked yankee.ie for my order updated and it says Processed no, but i did get them today.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 41 mrsfraw


    Just received an email from yankee, order ready for despatch for delivery tomorrow. :D

    I got mine this morning. Really happy with it.

    Keeping one of the 12 day's of Christmass books for myself though :D

    A friend of mine got hers friday but the burner was smashed. She emailed them and they are sending out a new one asap.

    Those 12 days candles, do they need to be put into something or just on a saucer or plate ?

    The votives are meant to be put into a holder.

    My burner was smashed also but they got one out to me the very next day! Seriously good customer service!

    That sounds familiar! :)

    They're great for gifts, we kept a couple of the items out of it and gave one of the 12 days book, the 3 pack of candles and the burner as gifts. €55 is very good for all that, but the original price is pretty dear.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,597 ✭✭✭anniehoo


    Rang them earlier, i ordered mine on friday. They said they've had over 2000 orders for this xmas set and hopefully should get it by tomorrow and if not to ring them. Hoping my burner is intact as i doubt ill get a replacement by xmas day.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,037 ✭✭✭yellow hen


    I ordered mine on Thursday. Think I was the 147th purchaser. I got an email on Friday morning to say they were sent but still nothing :( Did those who recieved them get a delivery note from the normal postman?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 634 ✭✭✭IrishPhoenix


    Just had my delivery. It came very fast, very well packaged. This is my first time buying from them and I'm really happy with it. Thanks OP.

    The tealight is put underneath and the wax is put on the upper level to burn from the heat of the tealight!

    Got mine today, very happy :D Excellent offer and excellent customer service from Yankee.ie (unlike Gamestop.ie http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2056484721&page=7)

    I ordered mine on thurs and only got them today so I wouldn't worry.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,267 ✭✭✭opr


    Ordered Friday and got it today so it should be with you tomorrow. I got a call early in the day to say they would be delivering it today so if you don't get a call maybe give them a bell before close of business.

    Edit - Oh and cheers OP.
