Does anyone get to the mall early and start "lining up"? I've been lucky enough for prior online releases that I have not needed to wait for the stores to get them.

Holy canoli!!!! That is craziness. I prefer to stay up all night for online releases. My best friend wants a Dodgy Girl but isn't exactly addicted to makeup. She cannot have my backup! LOL.

I am in Houston and for the last two Rihanna releases - I went to the mall about 45 minutes before they opened.. Both times I was the 2nd person there.. But people started lining up behind me at around 20-30 minutes before the store opened. The only thing was... both times people also lined up outside on the side of the store.. so the first time -- the people who parked on the side got to the counter before we did.. (just a few seconds but a few seconds counts)..
I guess it depends on where you live... and how many stores you have.. but I wouldn't think you'd need to get there 3 hours before..
((( EDIT -- going to sleep.. good talking to you guys )))

You do lol! Imo the first hour you wait usually no one is there. By hour two people show up and you let them know you mean business....then it packs up with an hour to go lol. It is logical

This has nothing to do with anything about makeup but for anyone living in NC or around there be careful apparently Mosquitos are carrying around a new disease it's not deadly but it can get bad if you have it "First confirmed NC case of mosquito-borne chikungunya virus reported in Forsyth Co."

It's all mentality. If you really wanna quit you can do it., but, you have to know why you're a smoker in the first place. I started smoking when i was 13 and smoked for 10 years. I ended up smoking just in social situations, driving to/from work, during my lunch break, and during school break. I was a smoker because i need to keep my hands busy when I'm bored or have extra time on my hands. Now I fidget with my earrings or text or find other things to keep myself busy. OCD. This September will be 10 years now that I've quit. Things smell better, food tastes better, and i can breathe better. My dad quit, on a dare, for a year. He was an eater, and smoked instead of eating. So to stop, he sucked on hard candy when he wanted one. Once to find out why you smoke, you can find a substitute to help you quit. Plus, they're too expensive! I remember when I'd get change back from $2 for a pack! Just image how much makeup you could buy instead of cigarettes!I'm still trying to quit, so I feel ya! I want perdy teefs

congrats on being smoke free my dear friend! My sister has been smoke free for 2 years now! She was a social smoker and when she was bored like you needed something to do with her hands when she wasn't working. But she quit for my mom because she cares for her along with me and it is a hazard to our mother's health! That and due to caring for our mom, her friends dropped her because she couldn't hang out like she used too.

Yah I hear ya, I started smoking when I was 12 and haven't really quit yet for 21 years. I started smoking to deal with stress from really bad trauma that continued on throughout my life, but happily my situation changed a few years ago and I'm now starting to really adjust and move past it so I'm hopeful that I can quit soon!!
