Wal-Mart knock off warmers and scents. ICK!

I was in wal-mart the other day and saw they have their own warmers and scent bars that Better Homes and Garden makes. I had heard about them and I have a girl who wont buy Scentsy because of these ugly things. The warmers looked SO cheap and the designs were not cute at all. I saw that they had about 20 scents and some were almost the same as ours like blueberry cheesecake and clove & cinnamon. I decided to take a closer look and smell a few. They are in the same clam shell packaging that Scentsy uses. They are only $2 for a pack that has 6 cubes in it. They didn't smell awful but I did noticed the wax was hard and not like Scentsy's at all. I was going to buy one just to compare so I could share my experience when I get asked but I was scared that wax was going to ruin my Scentsy warmer. I was also really shocked to see that right on the packaging of the warmer it states: This Is Not A Scentsy Product, can we say COPY CAT! So I came home and did some research. Scentsy had a lawsuit against Walmart and the makers of this warmer/bars, we won! I also saw that a lot of consultants tried them out and they said they don't even compare at all! Here is one girl that had a in depth review of the wal-mart wax....

1. The wax was very hard to come out of the packaging!


2. The scent was so strong ( I'm one that loves strong scents) it made me SICK.. I"m not joking~ I got this horrible headache and then I felt like my throat was gonna close because it was so overwhelming. Who knows what they are using, but it did NOT sit well with me.


3. The scents was so strong, I turned off my warmers, opened my screen door and scooped the wax out in a bag ~ Oh.. Walmart wax BURNS your skin. OUCH.. and I had the warmer turned off enough that it was almost back to solid, but was so hot, that it hurt when a tiny amount go on my hand. Good selling point to our customers who say, walmart is cheaper !! Not if a child pulls down on the cord and gets burned and scared from walmart wax...


4. Still feeling sick ~ I quickly took out the bag with the walmart wax and threw it in my outside garbage can with my dogs bag of goodies ....LOL.....that's where it belongs.


5. Sometimes I think we all need to be careful what we wish for ~~meaning, wanting stronger scents ~ If I had not heard of scentsy and tried the walmart stuff.. I can tell you I would NEVER try a warmer and wax again !!


I also read about the wal-mart scents not being strong enough depending on the scent and the warmers getting TOO hot and breaking. I guess this is something to think about and maybe even and also learn more as wal-mart gets more scents but I still think they suck! 

GO SCENTSY!!!

Here are a few photos of their warmers that have NO personality what so ever!
