Admit it – you love shopping for candles. You love going to the store, smelling all the different jars of wax, and then deciding if you want to buy only five candles or get a nice round 10. I’m the same way. Whether it’s Yankee candles, Woodwick candles, or just some regular drugstore candles, I want them all. They smell nice, they look cute, and they make me feel like it’s a cozy fall afternoon all year round. This love for candles doesn’t exclude anyone. Even your Sims feel it. I bet they love candles just as much as us. If you’re in the mood for treating them (or are simply looking for a way to buy more candles without spending your actual money) then you’ve come to the right place.
