get'em while the gettin's good!

UPDATE Ok, so upon making a quick trip to another local Big Lots, I did discover some fresh lychee pill refills; along with the combo packs. So it does look like those are showing up as well. On a side note, I personally picked up the last two remaining spiced pear candles sitting on the shelf! Yay! They were a little beat up (hello, they're like two years old) and I'd been staring at them for ages, but finally the idea of "who needs lunch when you've got spiced pear!" took over and I just grabbed the suckers!

Also, fellow method luster Greg says:

"At the Big Lots in my city (Cleveland), I found not only the cut grass and lychee pills, but also a bunch of recently discontinued candle fragrances (eucalyptus-mint, fig, etc) AND a few of the big old chocolate-martini candles, which have been discontinued for YEARS. And the chocolate-martini candles were $2.50!"

That's CRAZY! I wish I could find some fig candles! Man! (They still have them on the method home site, but they're $8. which is a bit pricey for moi. I can't believe he found chocolate-martini candles, from the method premium candle line which, like he says, was around years ago! Enjoy!


Previously
While searching out the elusive bloq green mint personal care items at my local Goodwill stores (due to a hint from method lust reader Rebecca that they were selling them at her local Goodwill (I had no luck on my search, sniff-sniff.) I DID discover something at my local Big Lots! (They also carry method items from time to time, and I thought maybe the bloq items had hit there, but again, no...) but they currently have the method aroma pills in cut grass and fresh lychee! For $4.00! (Which is a great savings from their usual price of $7.99 at Target!) This is the plug-in pill/refill bottle combo.

I'm not sure what has happened to this spring edition line. Originally these two scents were to hit stores (to my knowledge) for the spring/summer line, but then the aroma air sprays were discontinued, sort of seemingly throwing a wrench into the aircare line; nothing new showed up for a while in stores, then we got the special edition citrus cilantro and beach sage items; and we did receive the cut grass aroma sticks, but nothing more in the spring/summer line. So I figured sooner or later they'd show up at Target; but suddenly they're at Big Lots. It's just the pill combo box; nothing more (no candles, aroma rings, etc. at least at the moment.) So run and grab some up while they're in stock! It's a great deal! (And I even managed to find three lavender + lemongrass pill refills in the single pack packaging there, too! I bought those up, so you might find them as well!)

If you happen to see any method items at close-out discount stores, or thrift shops, let method lust know! Thanks!
