Hello,
I'm a relatively new CBV addict! I've already placed several orders but, as always, I'm finding new scents to try.
I'm wondering if it's likely that Victoria will have any more sales on scent shots again in the next couple months.
Thanks!

Hello Melika,
My on-site cart is filled and ready for a September 1 Sale. It is my best GUESS that September will be the last good sale, perhaps the last sale at all for this calender year. I have a little trouble understanding why CBV gets really busy in the Fall and Winter since I plot out my yummy bakery scented candles to have six months of Cure time before I hope to use them in Fall and Winter. Hopefully the new softer wax in all the Melts will have faster curing times. Nevertheless, Fall and Winter are their busy season and I think we should anticipate no Oct, Nov, or Dec sales. Of course we can always take 10% off with the code CBVictoria. Prepare to take advantage of September!
I am ready for a cute Holiday Warmer.

AbbieJolie is right that there probably wont be any sales after September, but I do believe there has been one in October before, but it is unlikely to happen again this year, but even so Victoria will still probably put out new products or scents during the next few months. She normally throws some surprises in every now and then.

Melika, find Candles by Victoria on YouTube and subscribe if you haven't already. Today's video is the announcement of the September Sale. Victoria has had her Creativity Cap on and conjured up a bouquet of new scents too!
May I suggest you order heavy on Melts and Bath & Body and low on Candles for this first Fall and Winter with CBV? A Bakery scented candle can take months and months to cure, but the melts are in a softer wax that is likely to cure faster. I am ordering the new scent "Giving Thanks" in the Jar Full of Pumpkins because it sounds SO delicious! I ordered some Mally Eyeliners today on sale but the only other sale I expect to take advantage of for September is Victoria's.
I expect QueenTakesJack to give us a full Announcement post sometime today with all the details.

It is only 12:07 and I'm having trouble with the discount code 20off. The page refreshes and says the discount was applied but the total doesn't change and the discount doesn't show up. Yes, the order is above $25.00 before shipping.
Ah, I am not alone, at least eight other nightowls on Facebook have found the same thing.

2:55 AM CST and the sale code doesn't impact your sales total even though the top of the page says the discount has been applied. For all I know I could proceed with the purchase and it would work out alright in the end. Kind of hate to chance it though.

I know what you mean. I'm gonna just wait. I'm sure Victoria will get it fixed when she gets in.

Victoria woke up about 3:30am and checked to see how things were going only to find that they were not. It was a tiny oops when she set up the code, as she learned after waking her computer wiz up so he could diagnose it. A website with this much to it must be quite something to manage.
All better now. I got my order placed. My largest in many months. I can go on a low-buy (not no buy) plan for the rest of the year. I need to keep money aside for adoption and veterinary fees for my next cat or cats.
