I love candles of all descriptions and as I live about two miles from an Asda George store, this is where I buy a lot of my candles. I bought a large bag of Asda's own brand of tea lights from there about two weeks ago whilst I was looking for a DVD. These cost me £2 for a bag of 100 little tea lights. These compare very favourably price-wise to the likes of Sainsbury's, Tesco's and even Ikea, where I used to buy a lot of my unscented tea lights from, in the past. The tea lights are very plainly packed and come all thrown together in a plain white and transparent plastic bag. The only way to get access to the candles inside is to cut the top off with a ...  Read the complete review

I was never really a big fan of candles until a couple of years ago when my friend bought me a Yankee Candle tart burner for Christmas. For those of you who are unaware how the tart burners work (as I was when I got it) the wax tart is placed in the petal holder and below there is a space in the base in which you place a tealight to burn which in turn will melt the wax tart. As I hadn't had one of these tart burners before I had to go and buy some tealights so on my next visit to Asda I had a look for some budget ones as I didn't want to pay a large amount. I picked up a bag of a hundred tealights for just £2 which I thought seemed a real bargain! ...  Read the complete review

~Asda Tealights~ Asda offer scented tealights for popping in tealight holders. They also offer unscented tealights which can be lit to simply add a cosy atmosphere to a room or used alongside an oil or wax tart burner. For a whole £2.00, you can buy a large plastic bag of 100 unscented tealights. The unscented tealights are presented in little, individual cases and should be placed in an appropriate holder. There are some care instructions on the bag and these should be read prior to using the tealights. The wicks should be kept trimmed to 0.5mm in length and care should be taken to ensure the lit tealight does not come into contact with flammable ...  Read the complete review

Like many people on Dooyoo it would seem, I like burning wax melts - or melting them at any rate! - and so I can go through quite a lot of tealights. I also like to use them for ambient lighting during special dinners or evenings in infront of a good film. I much prefer to have several tealights (all in suitable containers for safety reasons, obviously!) scattered around than a light on. As a result I've tried many different brands of the little white candles, some cheap, some not so cheap and have reached the conclusion that the expensive ones aren't really worth the extra money for what you want and get out of a tealight, but likewise, the very cheap ones also aren't ..  Read the complete review

I love to have some spare candles stored around the house just in case I am in the mood for a nice late night movie and want some nice atmospheric lighting to make things more exciting. I also like to use these for a pleasant romantic dinner or for a more romantic setting as I find that tea lights are so much easier to use and dispose of then normal candles. I purchased these Tea lights from the Asda home ware section, priced at a great value of £2 you get around 100 tea light candles per pack. This is amazing value considering other branded names sell packs containing fewer candles and at considerably higher prices, I have seen a few priced from £4. ...  Read the complete review
