Angela's Bath and Body Works Candle Rant

Lol so I completely forgot to post today... my bad. I wanted to do a woman crush wednesday... but it just escaped me. I blame hot dogs, cheese fries, chicken fingers and shopping... mostly shopping... which I shouldn't be doing at all... anyway...

So I stumbled across this video on youtube that said "I may boycott Bath and Body Works" and I just wanted to see what it was... I figured it was something stupid and fake... but what I saw was amazing.

So this woman from Neenah Wisconsin was apparently crazily stalking Bath and Body works for an Iced Gingerbread and a Winter Candy Apple candle... and she had to go ALL THE WAY TO THE MALL to get it. Ugh. Going places is the worst! Any way she had to go all the way to this store all the way in Appleton! And she had just been to Green Bay and the Osh Kosh outlet mall and she had called every school in her area to see if they had her Winter Candy Apple and her Iced Gingerbread candles and NO ONE HAD THEM! And this store she gave her number to and they said they had the candles and she went there and they thought they had them in an off site location but they didn't have the 3 wick they only had the 4 ounce. ONLY THE 4 OUNCE!!!! WHAT IS SHE SUPPOSED TO BURN THAT FOR WHAT A DAY! Angela is not going to take that! So she said "you know you should give me something for my trouble." Because the business of all retail stores is to give free merchandise to people when they throw tantrums in the store. Thats just good service. For a store that probably isn't the absolute biggest franchise in the country to give free stuff to people being rude. Thats the job!

And it also wasn't like she was just buying these candles. She was exchanging them... So no money would not be made by this transaction in the first place. Which you know, is fine. But I mean... its just kind... really. You weren't even going to buy the candle to begin with, you were just exchanging it. That just irritates me. I mean she didn't use the candles at least... but she was just exchanging them to get the new candles because she didn't want to spend the money on the new ones...

Anyway, idk if this person is real or trolling. I don't think this Angela person even cares that much anymore, she seems like she really doesn't care what anyone thinks... which is pretty cool actually. Lol. But the people working at Bath and Body Works did nothing wrong. Angela was rude, but I mean really she didn't do anything too wrong. Its super frustrating to deal with all these things. I mean shopping with your MOTHER! In Appleton Wisconsin of all places!!!! Lol. But yeah it can be frustrating when you want something and you don't get it.

So that is everything. Hope you enjoyed this or got a laugh out of it or something. Lol. I enjoyed the video. I'd link it... but this is something you should just google yourself and find I think. Lol. There are also parody videos of this. They have something that shows the "actual footage" and the response from Jen the manager. Side note: A lot of store managers are named Jen! Lol. I just find this amusing and I figured I'd post a blog about this.

Byeeee!

It List: May 2017

Can't believe it's the last day of May... this was a great time for TV... so let's get right into it! 1) Master of None- The second season of this show was really really great! I liked the first season... but this season was just wayyy better to me for some reason... I loved that they had episodes about Italy and about New York... I think they did a really great job and I was so impressed with it... I'll have to watch the first season over again and do a Throwback Thursday on that sometime soon... but until then... season 2 was great! 2) Girl Boss- I finally got around to watching Girl Boss this month too... and I loved that show! At first I wasn't sure if I was going to like it or not... then I just couldn't stop watching it and I finished it in 2 days... which I guess is when I finished all the Netflix shows I'm talking about... but still. Girlboss was definitely really good... and I feel like I could watch this one over and over again too. 3) Unbrea...

Blogmas Day 12: The 12 Days of Christmas Gift Guide

So I thought it would be fun to do a gift guide that every gift corresponds with the price. So like for the first day of Christmas $1 gift that would be good and then up from there. These would be good stocking stutterers and things I just think are unique. $1- Solar Powered Dancers!  My mom loves getting the little dancing solar powered people. We get most of ours from Dollar tree... other dollar stores have them too, they're super cute and fun for $1. Its good to put near any plants that you have that way you know they're getting sunlight. It's a good gift. $2- Mini Coloring Book!  At 5 Below they had some mini travel sized coloring books for $2. I thought these were pretty cool. I got the Botanical one I believe. Really cute and fun! I would recommend! $3-   Ceramic Truck w/ Christmas Tree  I saw this at the Target Dollar Spot and I thought it was cute and would probably make a great gift. If you know someone who has a truck or likes the sort of "rustic C...

Scribbles About Food: Gloria Jeans Pistachio Chiller (kinda like a frap)

So since I'm doing all of the Frappuccino reviews, I thought I would give a shout out to a different coffee chain that I like... maybe even more than Starbucks! But I hardly ever go to it because A) People get your orders wrong there a lot B) I don't really live near one! So Gloria Jeans has some amazing drinks called Chillers that are like Frappuccinos, but they have always had a ton of really good and really interesting flavors. One of my favorite Seasonal ones is the Pistachio Chiller. They had this around this time last year also and its a really good unique flavor. Basically it tastes like pistachio ice cream... but in a frozen coffee form. Its pretty cool! And Pistachio is a pretty underrated flavor in my opinion. I don't get it enough, but I always love Pistachio and Almond flavored desserts and this in particular is really flavorful and just a really good chiller. I don't think there is anything at starbucks that compares to it really, its really different...
