Tim Hortons Etched Brown Mug 50th Anniversary Limited Edition Cup 2014

Today, I am sharing with you a handsome brown mug that was designed in celebration of Tim Horton's 50th Birthday in 2014.

Fairly simple with a stylistic white number 50 etched out of the brown area, it is bilingual in English and French and also reads Since / Depuis 1964. The reverse side has Tim Hortons etched in a vertical, cursive print and the bottom denotes the status of this mug as a Limited Edition item. 

I love the chocolate color since it reminds me of a steamy hot cup of hot chocolate. The bottom does not say dishwasher or microwave safe and while I am certain it would suit the first appliance, you'd have to test it out and see if it suits the second. 

It is reasonably sized measuring 4 1/2 inches tall and 3 1/4 inches wide across the top without the handle and holds 16 ounces of your favorite beverage, whether that be Tim Hortons' coffee, steeped tea or something else. Personally, I am a tea drinker so you will find only tea and hot chocolate in my mug!

As I write this seven years have passed since the release of this mug. If you want to own it you will have to look at the secondary market and I recommend looking for it here, on eBay.

Tim Hortons' fans will want to raise this mug in celebration of  the 50th birthday of their favorite restaurant.

Yankee Candle Easter Candles

I love it or at least the idea of it for I have not actually had the chance to smell one. The Yankee Candle company released a scented called PEEPS Marshmallow Chicks Collector’s Edition Candle.  How much fun is that? I wonder what it smells like. I  need to sniff out some PEEPS to find out. (Find Peeps candles here on Amazon.) 

A little online sleuthing revealed that this is not the first Easter-scented Yankee Candle. Previous scents included: Bunny Cake, Happy Easter, Easter Egg Hunt, Chocolate Bunnies and White Chocolate Bunnies.  They are all still available either at retail or through resellers on Amazon and eBay. 

A quick peek on ebay when I wrote this revealed 233 Yankee Candle Easter themed listings, some of which are actually candles and some of which are candle holders and accessories. I really thought the Easter Bunny Topper, seen here, was particularly cute and I will admit that prior to writing this post I did not know there was such a thing as a candle accessory. However, if it is actually an Easter candle you are after, you can see what is available today on eBay by clicking right here.

I did know that Yankee Candles are highly collectible with buyers seeking out favorite scents long after they have been discontinued.  As is often the case, eBay is the best place to turn when you are looking for out-of-production items like these scented candles.

When I wrote this, eBay showed over 20,000 Yankee Candle listings. The highest sale price for a single candle was $173 plus shipping for a scent known as Waterfall Canyon. That's a lot of money for a single candle but it just shows you how very popular these candles are and of course, that is an extreme example. Many other new and discontinued scents are available at much more reasonable prices.

You never know what I might
have in store for you!
