8. Yankee Candle ($50 gift sets)

Certainly one of the elder statesmen among American candle producers, Yankee Candle was founded nearly 50 years ago by Michael Kittredge in Massachusetts, and is now valued at around $2 billion.  Their candles, divided by scent, color, size, and a catalog of other factors, are ubiquitous.  They populate best-seller lists on Amazon, as well as a number of other online marketplaces, and are available in over 550 stores in 50 different countries.  Shoppers can choose from tantalizing scents, such as Fresh Cut Roses, Spiced Pumpkin, Vanilla Bourbon, and Clean Cotton to give your home a unique flair that their guests won’t soon forget.
