RiRi Hearts MAC Summer Collection (June 18, 2013)

[Richelle83]

This thread just make for a good after work de-stressing read
Forget about book club (which I do hoard during their summertime sale, B1, get all others 50%)
I am a proud guilt -free back up heaux
Juice on sale, it is hot as hell in Florida in the summer, B1G1 free I am all over it!
I have too many struggling friends and family members for us all not to help each other out
Victoria Secret sale 75% off, $3.50 for a body wash, can't beat that. I have enough to last me till next sale plus give aways, (and yes, I shower a lot, its hot here!!!)
"Oh, you going to Jamaica? I am broke right now but take this for my sister, my cousins, my aunts, my grandmother".
Forget all the males, I am gonna shop in my stash and make some female folks really happy!!!
"Mom, you really want this lipgloss? Ok, fine, here is an extra Restless. Leave me alone now!" lol
There is a new Mac collection out and I am broke so I am going to re-invest from my stash to get from the new collection.....back-ups
I am not going to beg, borrow or steal but I am gonna hustle legally
My hairdresser just hooked up my weave real good and I want to be extra nice to her, "Here's an BNIB eyeshadow"
So many times items are not best suited for my skintone so when something does and is really flattering, I do want multiples.
(when I love, I love hard)
I recall a sales associate telling me about a collection during which Mac suffered a significant loss hence the cut back on mass producing
I saw a guy returning a ton of Extra Dimension stuff for his wife that I know cost a ton and will be wasted
Knowing what appeal to you and what works for you and your love ones I think is the key.
I am willing to skip collections that I feel is not suited for me and others are able to overindulge
When I am ready to overindulge, leave me the hell alone!!!
Judging, pointing fingers and criticizing others should not be in the make-up equation IMO
BTW, I left everything in this collection for everyone who can to enjoy . I will wait my turn in fall for some lipglosses and cream color base etc hopefully.

For real it is too hot here to pass up on some good deals. When Publix has B1G1 gallon iced tea.....we stock up!!!

So??? 4 is the legitimate limit anyway

Why does that earn someone the label "greedy"

Did you sign up today just to come here to scold us for BU's

I also bought 2 boxes of Ritz Crackers at the store the other day...because we like them & they were on sale...is that greedy too? I am anything but a greedy person.

Better not mention how many FM powders I bought

Right? Shoot. Now that is the one product I bought a ton of. And I use it every day, knowing that I will not run out for a long, long time. But I will use that FM powder every single day until I hit that last bit of powdered dust in my very last BU.

MAC thinks we gals on Specktra are a bunch of Heaux hackers!

Lol @ notes!

I just got off the phone with CS after a 15 minute wait. One of mine is still in pending limbo but I was assured that it is going to ship. I know, so hard to trust them at this point. So there is hope yours will ship too. She also told me there were 'NOTES' in my account I'm sure there is & prolly not love notes either

Not happy to hear about AAO being backordered... I ordered T&T after my Rihanna stuff... Rihanna stuff has shipped and I'm waiting on T&T... Don't want to wait two weeks! Grrr.

I hope you don't have to wait that long. I was on the fence about T&T, and I knew I wanted SK, so I grabbed it and hit checkout right after my RiRi order.... now all of a sudden BACKORDERED ugh! They really need to step their game up, because I'm like seconds away from heading over to TKB and making my own damn lipstick! LOL

Just got my shipping notices, my S&S and flamingo lipsticks should be here Monday and my heaux should be here Tuesday..now I'm just waiting on my RRW backup although I may just give it to my aunt since she doesn't have a good matte red lipstick in her collection

Hi ladies, I just signed up, but have been a creeper for quite some time. I felt the need to finally create an account to commend every single one of you for the grace, maturity, respect (I could go on and on) you have all shown towards each other and the clueless newbies. It is such a breath of fresh air to find a forum that is not full of insults and petty arguments!

I also called cs now, so rude and uninterested, my order was pending since yesterday, now it's back ordered. When I called this morning I was told it went through, so no one knows whats going on.
I use the term CS loosely. Will ship sometime in July. I said you still have the lipsticks available online why is it back ordered and basically she said I don't know.

Sometimes I find that's an issue right after I first receive a shipping notice (from anywhere). I give it some time and it pops up after a little while. Has it been long?

Nope! It sometimes take a while. Sometimes even when they have the package picked up from UPS, they did not electronically send your address to them yet.

That seems to be their answer for everything "I don't know". Can someone get some people in there that do know?!?

 

[sharviss]

Does "using technological means to circumvent our site" mean their own LINK? Omg

Right? So ridiculous! Also, how else are we supposed to access an online only collection? I get that they're saying we accessed it early but the wording is nuts.

i got the email several hrs ago, i'm just hoping they didn't intercept it like they did to others. so many problems with this collection i won't feel better till they're in my lipstick holders! haha

Cannot live without that powder either! I use it ALL the time. I would have hoarded waaay more if I could have found them.

 

[purplevines]

Stop making me want to try things I can't afford to try! Lol... but pressed or loose?

LMAO, you took the words straight out of my mouth!

This morning they knew, ha.

Tonight they don't.
