(sorry, i copy'ed and pasted from my lj post, too lazy to type!)
I went into MAC in Brighton intending on buying just prep & prime (ran out yesterday), naturally I walked out with Prep & Prime as well as a quad and two eyeshadows, oops! Anyway, the girl who served me gave me this thing called a MAC Access card & explained it all n such, it sounds pretty good! I don't know if its been trialled/is available in the USA but it's only been trialled in Brighton here for the time being.
You can see in the pictures what it says... prize draws, a no purchase neccessary complimentary make up lesson, and with purchasing a 40 minute make up service priced £25 you get a full size complimentary mascara. Its pretty cool, the main jist of it is instead of them asking for your name when you purchase something you hand them your card. It says its only being trialled in Brighton and might expand into other places if it proves successful.
So the last two days have been good MAC days for me! Bought a traincase from B&Q of all places thanks to a tip off from an lj member, recieved my pigment samples, recieved Fleshpot l/s from an lj member, bought prep & prime face, an empty quad, and two e/s! And of course my MAC Access card! Shame I only go to Brighton every two weeks so I can't use it at my closest MAC.
EDIT:
My post last night was pretty quick as I got back late and had to go to bed as I had work blah blah etc... I took high quality pictures on my digislr instead of my rubbish camera and even though you can probably read from the pictures I'll type out what it says, gotta kill some time whilst they're uploading!!
