How to visit the Yankee Candle Shop Flagship store in Deerfield, MA
"Christmas all year round"
How I did it: I have been out to the flagship store twice. I enjoy some of it, but I am not a huge Christmas fan so I typically go to where all the candles are and spend my time there. I love to get a sampler of votive candles and then to dip my own candles to create pretty patterns. Since my previous trip they had added a place to make your own candles by adding different scented/colored pellets. They melted the top so you could take it home.
My second trip also hit a big sale. There were tons of extra items around that were really cheap. I grabbed some fudge and some candy to take home. I am writing this 2 weeks later and I still have fudge.
Lessons & tips:
- Watch for sales.
- If you have kids, splurge on a $10 wax version of their hands.
- For $10 you can make your own candle.
- You can dip your own candles for a variety of prices. It depends on the candle you want to dip
- The fudge is delicious! Buy some!
- The Christmas stuff is cute, if you like that.
- There is a little show that happens every so often in the center of the store. It's a great time to stop for a drink or a bite to eat.
- There is a huge kids section with candy to buy and more.
