Hey ladies 
I ended up missing the last sale but this time I finally have the Saturday off but my usual resource for tix may not be able to get her hands on them this time around so if any of you have 2 extra tickets for the Saturday for sale/swap/ RAOK please think of me So upset I missed the awesome charity bags last time

The warehouse sale is put on by MAC/Estee Lauder. You can try asking your local sales rep at MAC or EL counters for extra tickets if they have any. Otherwise you can find tickets on sale at kijiji or craigslist,

i hope this sale will have great charity bags (cb) again. just like in the past when they didn't have cb, but then at the next sale, they had the amazing mac double features eyeshadows in the cb. since the last sale had minimal cb items, then i am hoping that this time around they will have better items in the cb.

Me too! I liked the sets from last time but it'd be nice to get packs to mix and match and swap!

Basically when you leave, they have these mixed grab bags at the door where it's $5 (cash only) a bag, maximum of 4 bags or $20 per person. Inside they usually have about 3-5 items, but it's always a mix. Sometimes they have decent stuff, other times not so decent. Last time they didnt' have bags and gave dazzlespheres and mineralize body lotion instead (1 globe or 1 lotion = $5).

Ok I just came back from the sale and there's basically the same stuff there. Nothing new that I can see. Although great deals on brush sets (buy 1 get 1 free). normally they are $35 for 5 MAC brushes SE with pouch, so that's a great deal.
The free gift was smooth 365 intensive peptide serum which I never heard about, so I had to google what it is and what the reviews are like. It seems like an expensive product so hopefully it works just as well. http://www.kohls.com/kohlsStore/PRD~227034/SMOOTH365+Intensive+Clarity+++Smoothing+Peptide+Serum.jsp
Charity bag, no choice on the items. You just tell the person how many bags you want (max 4) and they just hand you a MAC bag with the bags inside, so you can't pick and choose My charity bag had MAC items: "Miss Piggy Pink" eyeshadow, cremesheen lipglass in "richly revered" and crushed metallic 4 pigment set in "aloha".

I just got back - the sale was good in some ways, and bad in other ways.
The bad - No charity bags, and I was checking out at 12:30 pm. They just had the mineralize lotions for $5 each. Considering they had great bags on Friday, I'm really really disappointed. The free gift was a GoodSkin labs Smooth-365 moisturizer. Also, the blush table was very slim pickings.
The good - Lots of fluidlines (including Blacktrack, Dipdown, Ivy, Avenue, Ash Violet, and maybe more), lots of mascaras (Mac, EL, Clinique, and even a Smashbox one). Good selection of palettes, but I didn't like the ones they had (Parlor Smoke, Evil Eye, Tone Grey, Leopard Luxe, plus random holiday ones). Brushes table was pretty good, I picked up a 234 for $15. Holidays sets were BOGO $35, if you like those. A few cremesheen glasses, which are a rare find at the sale.
The $4 table was average - they have Phloof and Plumage pro pans. No mini cleansers or makeup removers or Fix+ (except they did have EL mini m/u remover and BB mini cleansing oil).
I'm so so so disappointed about the lack of charity bags, considering it was noon on Saturday!
Edit: I just want to clarify. Technically, they did have "charity bags" but it was just a mineralize lotion.

You mean the blush-sized MAC ones? I haven't seen those in a year or two.
Yes, there are lipsticks, but mostly nude and dark colours. Some of the ones that come to mind are Shy Girl, Pinkydee, Razzeldazzler, Barcelona Red. Can't remember any more.
