Wickless Wednesday: Random Target Haul!

My obsession with Target is well documented. How do you not love Target? Where else can you get curtains, weed wackers and Windex, baseball bats, cinnamon and spices, and wax tarts all under one roof?! I feel like we go to this store more than is socially appropriate. Maybe I should move in to one of the stores? I'd probably be able to survive a long time. It seems like I find excuses to take my sweet time leisurely walking through the aisles, looking for new items and fun trinkets. Gah, I love trinkets. And I love new, cool food things. So, I have my haul for you. Do you enjoy these kinds of posts? Let me know!
A local food blogger Instagram-ed a picture of the Noosa pumpkin flavored yoghurt and I instantly turned on my heels and high-tailed it to Target that same day. OH MAN, this is amazing stuff! It's like it has real pumpkin pie inside, sans crust. It's creamy, delicious, and wonderful, and I may or may not be on multiple tubs in a month. #NoShame
Pumpkin spice lattes might be back at Starbucks, but I've never seen this chai tea pumpkin concentrate! I am super excite to try this out.
Josh chose these two babies! The pumpkin spice ones are just okay, the pumpkin isn't spicy enough and the chocolate is waxy, but the cookies are good. I haven't tried the caramel apple pie cookies, but they smell SO good!
If you don't have kids, you'd probably have no idea that applesauce comes in pouches now. POUCHES. So, you're telling me, I can just drink my applesauce from one of these little tiny thingies and not even need to dirty a spoon? Maximum laziness achieved! Here's another addictive thing...and again, I may or may not have had 3 of these in one day when we brought these home.
Glade's new fall scents are out at Target! Red Apple Bakery smells pretty generic, minimal spice, pretty waxy smelling, too. This was the least favorite on cold sniff, but I will still melt it.
Woodside Library is one we have talked about in our waxy chat quite a bit. This does smell leathery, but of the two listed "ingredients," leather and oak, it's more tree-ish. Very mature and musky smelling, but I think this will be nice in the bathroom warmer.
Sage & Thyme Market is one I have already melted. 3 cubes two times and each time, it was pretty darn strong! It would have lasted longer, but it does get tiring after a while because it's pretty herbal smelling. Quite nice for fall!
Eos is a really cool lip balm in this weird sphere thing! I like the way it spreads across the lips usually, but it takes a while to "get going." Enter the coconut milk kind. For some reason, this "flavor" spreads SO wonderfully across the lips. It's never greasy and doesn't feel heavy on the lips. The scent is almost like a pina colada drink mixed with a tropical bubblegum. It's not overly sweet, which I like. I am usually a medicated lip balm/chapstick kind of gal, but this is a really nice change of pace. I have to keep this in the bedroom locked away in my dresser because Freddo likes to get his paws on the little spheres and chew through to the lip balm part, lol.

There's my Target haul! I have had this post almost finished for a week, but I figured I'd wait until Wednesday since it's not all wax related. What cool things have you found from Target lately?

  1. I need to try the Woodland Library melts. I like the scent, but the candle had zero throw and tunneled like crazy. However, the Sage & Thyme Market is a thumbs up.

    That Noosa pumpkin yogurt is seriously challenging my recent decision to avoid dairy. Maybe just one tub...

    1. One tub won't kill ya! But I warn you...it IS highly addicting! ;)

      I'm sorry you didn't have luck with your Woodland Library candle! Try it in wax, it's sure to be a thrower. It smells very strong on cold sniff.

  2. I love Target but I rarely go there. Part of the reason is because I like to get up and get going early, get my shopping done at about 7am, and Target's not open that early. I had fun there the other day though, and really must start going there more.

    And I *love* these kinds of posts. Reading about only wax can get boring.

  3. Nice Target goodies!!! That pumpkin yogurt sounds like it needs to come home with me. Is it crazy that I have never gone grocery shopping at Target?? I think I need to browse their foods. Mmmmm Tazo Chai is my favorite. Great post!

  4. Going to be looking for the pumpkin Noosa :) I was tempted to buy the new Pepperidge Farm Blueberry Cobbler cookies. Do tell... how were the Caramel Apple? :P

    1. They were super chewy and very appley without being overpowering! I recommend them! We just got the pumpkin cheesecake ones on our latest trip there! The pumpkin Noosa....I have purchased about 6 tubs of it, LOL.

  5. I am so curious about Woodside Library. Every single time I go to any of the four Wal-Marts in my town, Target, or Walgreens I check for this one, and every single time they are ALL sold out. LOL! It MUST be good!

    1. Let me know if you'd like me to send you some! I have some extra squares I'd love to share with you if you can't find any!

    2. That is SUCH a sweet offer. I look every time and I STILL haven't found any anywhere. It's GOT to smell amazing, because every store is constantly sold out. I am just curious and would like to smell it, but I probably wouldn't like melting it. I don't tend to care for the manly type fragrances. You're so kind to offer to send me some, though. :)
