Where do you buy your MAC?

[shopandconquer]

Normally, Macy's because I have a store card. I tried Nordstrom once and the MAC area was jam packed. I hope to get to a CCO soon.

Always In store so I can check out the colours properly

There is no MAC store or counter anywhere near me, and I don't drive, so I have to order online from MAC online, Debenhams or House of Fraser.

A couple of months ago I finally got to go to a MAC counter, when the entire family went to an out-of-town shopping centre. I couldn't spend much time at the House Of Fraser MAC counter because my parents disapprove, and the only reason I was 'allowed' to go in there was because I had a HoF voucher to spend (so I could assure them I wasn't spending any actual money on 'yet more makeup') I came away with an eyeshadow and a brush, but would have spent much more had my parents not been there.

Unfortunately the bus there and the bus back both broke down, resulting in the whole day being a 6 bus journey. I don't fancy doing that again.

I purchase either online or in stores, sometimes it depends on if I want to wait for products to arrive in the mail.

Mac online mostly. The closest Mac counter is about a 3 hour drive.

MAC online if there's something I think will sell out fast. I also have bought products from Nordstroms but some times they take a long time to send new limited edition collections. I was recently on vacation and bought some products from a CCO in Myrtle Beach and was very happy with what I was able to get for the price I paid.

Online at mac or macys

I live in Switzerland, so I mostly do it online. It's cheaper to buy the stuff off ebay and the Swiss online store reliable at all.

I buy at my local Beales department store - they stock Bobbi Brown, Chanel, Dior, Benefit, etc. It's not in a major city, so on a quiet weekday the sales assistants have more than enough time to help me out and suggest products for me. The store also has its own points card, so I get money off vouchers in the post every 6 months.

I usually purchase from the MAC stores. I am really considering online though because there are items we don't have access to. Do you all think is worthwhile when you live outside of the US and Canada?

 

[beckyalyssa]

It depends where you live - the UK Mac site seems to have a few shades in lipsticks, for example, that aren't in my local store. I'd only make an order if I was spending enough to get free delivery.

mac, macys, nords..

 

[treasuremymac]

Nordstrom's because I get points from my purchases and get Nordstroms Notes for future purchases. If I need something I cant find there then i will go to any department store or MAC to get that item.

 

[TheLizzer]

I live in Belgium and I buy MAC on their website or in the MAC store, I have one in my hometown

 

[krstn1613]

I've given up on the brick and mortar stores. Mac.com or macys.com

 

[joty]

I buy my MAC stuff from the MAC store or online. I don't like ordering online because it takes so long to arrive, and there's a chance that some items may be left out of my order, so I only order online if I'm desperate to get a sold-out product, or too lazy to go to the store.

Online and the MAC counter
