"Candles for Clunkers" Program Overview

Do you have a pile of old wax candles clunking around in a drawer? Or a cupboard full of teacups or glasses collecting dust? At Makes Sense Candle Company, these "clunkers" are worth something to candlemaker Chris!

When you recycle your old wax, teacups, glasses, baby food jars (or anything else that can be made into a candle), you'll be issued CLUNKER CREDIT good toward the purchase of brand new, hand-poured gel or soy candles at Makes Sense - 415 Dousman Street, next to The Exclusive Company and Save-A-Lot foods in Downtown Green Bay, WI.

Our program is easy (unlike any government program!): You'll get a credit of 25 cents per pound of old wax, and 50 cents each for usable cups, jars and glasses. Baby food jars are worth 25 cents credit each. You can cash in your clunker credit to purchase Chris's amazing eco-friendly soy or long-burning gel candles that fill your home with great aromas.

So, go green! If you need more information, contact Chris via email at: candleman415@yahoo.com or stop in between 1:00-5:00 any Tuesday-Friday at Makes Sense Candle Company. You'll be glad you did.
