This might be an exciting event for some people, due to the rarity of its occurrence.
Last night I saw the following being sold, for 7nis each:
That is a Yaknahaz candle. The sign that was next to it says that some poskim have a problem with the putting of two candles next to each other for havdala, as has been done by many for many years, and then separating them (though it doesnt say what the problem is) so this candle is a solution for havdala of Yaknahaz.
I am not quite sure how to use it. It comes with the foil cup of a tea light. I guess you do the havdala then put the remaining candle in the foil cup and let it burn out. Being that they used a tea light foil holder, the candle is bigger than the holder and it seems kind of dangerous to me - the candle wont fit in well, it might fall out, etc.
This makes slightly more sense and seems more reasonable than the bowls of salt water they sell for Pesach, the package of ten pieces of bread for bedikas chametz, the roasted egg for the seder plate, but not by much.
