Glade Scented Oil Candles — 

Glade Scented Oil Candles

Last December I purchased these at Walmart at great two for one price with attached FREE refill coupon on the box. Hey who am I to pass up such a good bargain with a freebie, certainly not me.

 One winter evening while having a Christmas party I placed them around my home, In the living room, dining room, kitchen and bathroom. Just shortly before guests arrived I lit them all. The simple clear glass holder is basic enough to fit in with any decor and the scent diffuses into the air quickly.  Mmmm this cinnamon apple scent smells great, very cozy and invitng for sure, I was happy.

The evening was going smoothly, guests were having a great time enjoying the holiday music the tree, the food and yes the delicious apple scent. Some even asked if I was baking a pie. Wow these really do scent well I thought until I looked at one sitting on my kitchen counter and it had already burned down and the oil/candle was all but a memory. I check another, same thing except a bit of the oil was left in the well. Boy that was fast, and very dissappointing to say the least. I thought I'd get several hours of burn/scent time from these Glade Scented Oil Candles but no, it didn't happen. Now I'm left with 6 glass holders that cant really hold any other kind of item as the oil candle is made specefically to fit and be held in place with a magnet. 

Anyone have any ideas what these containers can be used for? candy dishes maybe? any and all suggestions will be considered as I don't think I'll be buying refills that burn too fast and cost too much.
