I haven't seen the Walmart mercury glass owls in our store yet, BUT Big Lots has the same ones I bought there last year again this year. AND they have a strand of mini lights inside them, no timer just an on and off switch. For $12.00 they are darling, come in 2 colors..gold and chocolate brown. Here they are..

T saw the ones in BL they are nice. Last year I got one at Target and took off the bottom and put a BO candle inside. I know the BL one dosen't have a timer. wish it did but still thinking about it! Thanks for sharing the picture of them

Pardon my ignorance of all the abbreviations that are used in this forum, but what are BO candles? All I can think of is--Blow Out candles. Is that too much to type?

orphan annie325 -- I would assume that BO in this context stands for "battery operated".

BO is short for battery operated candles. You're not ignorant, just haven't seen that used.

Thanks for the info but now I really feel dumb---that was so obvious to me after I read it. Well, just a new "trick" for this old dog.

Lucymo, Iwas just to Walmart and they are sold out at the one near me ! They had pumpkins and you can rip off the bottom and use your own lights. I did get the owls at BL! They are nice I wonder if the lights ever go if I can take off the bottom without braking them? I know it seems to be glued on maybe some glue remover. Oh will see if ever!
