Advent candle in shops?

Hey [santa] I don’t suppose anybody here knows of any shops that have advent candles in at the moment? I’ve looked in the supermarkets, pound shops and a couple of charity shops and can’t find one and I’m running out of time! I work in a town centre so can have a look on my breaks but I’ve run out of ideas! Thanks Smile

I’ve seen them in tiger and John Lewis

AutisticHedgehog · 28/11/2018 08:59

John Lewis have them (or they did a week or so ago)

Lakeland? I don't know where you are but I bought mine there.

crimsonlake · 28/11/2018 09:16

I have this problem annually, so sorry I am of no help. What frustrates me endlessly is that when I have one I then go on to see them everywhere in shops. This year I have not bought one yet and also cannot find one anywhere.

John Lewis do

I've seen them in John Lewis and The Range.

Oxfam shops usually have them too.

DeepIn40 · 28/11/2018 11:08

Yep, John Lewis and is also assume the other department stores will have them too.

If you have a nice garden centre close by I would try there.

Charlottle · 28/11/2018 20:20

Thank you all for the ideas! There’s a Lakeland kind of nearby so I can try there although can’t see any on their website. I don’t think we have a tiger round here and John Lewis and oxfam are out of my way unfortunately.
May have to just order online and stump up a delivery charge if I can’t find one tomorrow. But thank you again for the ideas Smile really appreciate it!

We got a really nice one from the Range - in red or white - under £3

The range

But garden centres are always a good shout too

Charlottle · 28/11/2018 20:38

Ooo the range is a good idea. Thanks again! I’ll pop in there on my way home from work tomorrow. I’m even more determined to get one now that I’m having so much trouble finding one haha

Local church? Ours has them in the entrance hall. They are free or you can donate something

TheDuchessofDukeStreet · 29/11/2018 04:21

Yes, Cathedral shops generally have them. Or Oxfam shops.

BeanJen · 29/11/2018 04:23

Amazon 😊👍🏻

starsinyourpies · 29/11/2018 04:33

I just bought a nice one in Oxfam.

Allthatglittersisgold · 29/11/2018 04:38

Tk maxx usually has them

Tiggles · 29/11/2018 08:08

Christian book shops. If you have a local church that advertises they are doing a charity Christmas card shop they often have them too.

Charlottle · 29/11/2018 19:27

So I finally got one Grin I went to the range and found one, so thank you to those who suggested the range! If anyone else is still looking for one, the range had the red or white ones mentioned, some fatter white ones with reindeers etc printed on them and also advent tea lights. Thanks again everyone! Mission over haha [santa]
