Do they take the tax off there? They still add it for California

. Kind of sucks but, eh, use to it I guess. I've heard some places they still add it and some places they take it off. I wonder how they decide that? LOL

I believe they tax you if you live in a state with a MAC store--at least that's how Sephora rolls.

yes, that is how it works.

 

[twilightessence]

Ooooh! That makes sense, LOL. Thanks for that.

 

[exoticarbcqen]

good to know, thanks!!! I thought it was if you had a mac presense in your state ie. mac counter, but no store. good to know, I guess I can take full advtange and send to my moms house where there is no mac store, just counter. So I will indeed save the whole 15% instead of the 7.5% haha

MACFF8 is the code

They must be expecting a whole lot of orders because in the confirmation e-mail where it usually says to expect 1-2 days for processing it says 5-7 days. I'm just happy the site isn't crashed and nothing in my bag was already sold out when I went to buy. LOL

Well, I just placed my largest order on MAC ever! OK, so it's not that much compared to what many will buy, but it's a big step for a lowly college student. Anyway, here's a list!

Cool Heat
Gulf Stream
Solar White
Warming Trend
Climate Blue
E-Z Baby Tendertone
Honey Bare

​

I saved $14 from the regular price!

I saw that too, lol. I was wondering if I had just never noticed it before. I hope I get all my goodies

I placed my order early this morning. I hope the server does not crash on people. (I noticed on Thursday night, MAC was doing maintenance on site... hope it was to ease any potential server issues.)

I saw that, too. I'm wondering if they are preparing it's customers for slower than usual shipping. I've placed my order and hope to see it by Thursday!

As long as it was in your shopping cart when you ordered it, you'll get it. I couldn't believe everything was still in my shopping cart when I placed my order. W/so many people staying up to receive the code and placing their order so early in the morning, I was a little worried....teehee....

What is the time on everyone's email? Mine is 5:04AM CST.
