Have You Ever Arrived A Day Late

Have you ever arrived a day late for a sale?  I have.  This week I went to Bath and Body Works to buy candles that are normally $20 a piece, but on sale 2 for $22.  However while looking at the different scents that they had to offer I wasn't seeing any sale signs.  This did not stop me from picking two scents that I thought would smell great lit.  I approach the cash register and before I put the candles down I ask if they are still on sale 2 for $22.  The cashier told me the sale had ended the day before.  Man, I was a day late for this.  Maybe that was a good thing since I was thinking $22 for two candles before tax was quite a bit.  I could head to Christmas Tree Shop and get candles for $3.50.  However, they may not have the scents that Bath and Body works does.  Plus I remember seeing a coupon for $20 off $45 at Yankee Candle.  I don't need more candles, but I find that I don't have many or any for the upcoming Spring and Summer seasons.
A candle is only good for however long the wax and wick last.  How much would you spend on a single candle?
