i tried to use some of the supplies they sell at michaiel's and hobby lobby but with the prices-no way could i keep going that route so i just got on google and typed in candlemaking. i have been ordering from websites ever since. i think the only thing that i use that i bought from michael's was the metal pitcher and the thermometer. i buy my wax, dye , and fragrance from lonestartcandlesupply.com -live their french market f.o.!!! and alot of my other fragrance oil i buy from aroma haven.com but you might be able to find some websites located in your state so the shipping and handling won't be as high. and as for the candle jars i buy whatever glass votives are on sale at walmart. it'll run you anywhere from about 75 to 100$ to get all your supplies but once you have them you can make at least 10 to 15 candles easily.
