Re: Wham! Bam! 15% Off?

It's legit. This is the first time that they have done this for the general public, IIRC.

For those of you who are looking for this email, it was sent out to everyone registered at maccosmetics.com, so check that email!

I am merging this thread with an existing thread on this topic.

I got an e-mail today with coupon,but it sucks that it can't be used at a counter cause I don't have a store near me.I don't order online either so dammit!

 

[twilightessence]

I got one! I'm so happy I was planning a trip to Hollywood to do MAC anyway this weekend

. Though, I'm wondering if I should just wait and do it online... But I want pan eyeshadows and I have empties. OH And getting paid and my stimulus check LOL. It is just meant to be.

I got it, too, but I have no freestanding store, so I'll be waiting until Monday.

Maybe it's time to start, lol!

I called MAC local store (not department store) and said they already have this F&F sale last week. So the email coupon won't be accepted at all..

whats up with that??!!!!

That's why you need to "TAKE" the printed email to the store and present it to them. If they still refuse, ask to speak w/a manager.

there was one a week or so ago. this however is a different one thus, the new dates 11th-16th. maybe they didn't get the memo (no pun intended). i would still bring the email in and try. if there are any problems then ask for a manager. there is no reason they should not take it. it is legit.

yeah she did talk to the manager and they didn't know anything about this. So.. i called Mac CS and she transfered it to headquarters.. and I talk to one of them and they have no clue about this email. They had me forward this email to them.. they think its fake.

So we just have to wait and see. Because she said that lots of ppl call about this. They are investigating it.

Also if you see the link email.. it's not MAC website or anything... I would think that the MAC store would know about this coupon. I will have to wait till they contact me again.

I got the email this morning too! TOO FREAKIN BAD that over the last week I've placed two orders worth $400!!! I'm PISSED.
Too bad I can't really take advantage of the discount...I'm saving for my Vegas Pro Store visit next month!

 

[AppleDiva]

I printed my coupon and took into my local Freestanding and I had no problems. Unfortunately, I only bought one item, because I was in a bit of a rush. But I did get a chance to swatch some stuff at a counter, so I will order the rest of stuff online.

 

[RaynelleM]

I got it too!! But I just bought a bunch of stuff in the last couple of weeks so I have nothing I really want right now

I'll probably just get some back-up mascara and maybe a bottle of charged water so I don't waste the discount ... wish I got this last week when my list was longer!!

 

[iluffyew769769]

I was going to go yesterday to the freestanding store here. I am so glad I waited!! I have enough empties to get 5 free eyeshadows! so now I will get my free eyeshadows and 15% off!!! I can't wait!

 

[FantaZ]

I don't have a MacPro Store and I was going to call the 800 # to order. Can this coupon be used over the phone with them?

That is what I was thinking of doing as well

The email was sent from [email protected], the maccosmetics.com domain. Also, when you click the link, it goes to Cheetahmail, a popular mailing/coupon service many online sites use. I get legit coupons from Saks Off 5th and Loehmann's all the time and they both use Cheetahmail.
