candle discrimination

why are yankee candles so expensive? are they that much better than other candles? is it the brand name? do they burn longer? do they burn better? do they smell better? why? what's the deal? please, i need answers. it's been weighing on my mind for years.


but I did buy one today for the first time ever. it was on sale for $6 (reg. $25). apparently people only like the smell of apple pie during the christmas season. well, i like it year round so joke's on you, yankee!
