I probably should, but I don't!

I do the same! But, I have separate documents: one for collections, one for reg. perm, and one for pro.

I'll be skipping the palettes anyway, most likely. But, I am going to get at least one thing with Tartan print. I am determined.

Hehe. Thanks!
Cannot wait for the next update!
I have a high hope for the color collection part.
Glad to know you guys are very organized.

Hehe. Thanks!

I just got so sick of not having budget room to make big hauls of perm stuff over the years...this way at least I can start chipping away at the huge list!
Quote:
That pink blush will be mine without a doubt! Thanks for sharing!
Quote:
I decided I'm picking up Perm items that will fit the best with the new LE collection items I'm hauling at the time. If my haul is lip heavy I'll be getting an e/s or blush and if it's eye/cheek heavy...a lip item. Brushes I still need/want are the hard part, but I think I'll pick them up when my haul is on the smaller than normal size. My Perm item with the FF collection will probably be Rebel l/s (Kittenish seems too warm for me).
Quote:
Yay geeks!
I have a huge Excel spreadsheet going on, makes it so much easier for me to keep things organized/planned!

Agreed I find it harder to say no to them than to give up my itty bitty monies put aside. So I am very careful when I do say no to them that I mean it plus it makes it so much harder to say no when they don't really ask for anything.

When I got into Mac I didn't know they had LE collections out all the time. I thought they are like other brands - collection per season. So I hauled permanent items alot then. Alot.
Add me up to the no kids-team. I would feel so selfish making more babies to this world, where there are millions of kids without a home and love already and all in all way too many people. Plus I don't have any motherly-feelings towards children. I only want to take care of animals, I feel strong bond to them.
I can't wait for more info for Tartan Tale!
I hope this will be a killer collection, I didn't like the one last year. In fact, I only got two cremesheen glasses from the whole collection.

lol I do something similar, I have a Excel file with ALL of my beauty stuff listed, the collection it came from, how many I have, and the retail price. There's a separate tab for Face, Eyes, Cheeks, Lips, Nails, Hair and Perfume. I originally did it to see how much my collection was worth... the total was a little scary
. I kept it up when my bf said he wanted to use it to list my collection under the home insurance since I spend so much on it... which reminds me I have a lot of stuff I need to update it with lol!

Oh my are you lot organised!
I should really do something similar... I start to begin to forget items and then to rediscover them ("oh, I own this e/s?! Cool!"). My wishlists are on little scraps of paper I loose all the time... yeah.
That being said, I'm so incredibly looking forward to this collection! I simply have to get something with Tartan print on it. The Holiday collection is always such a big haul for me that I have to split in in two and ask my parents for things as christmas gifts.
I like the pallettes, and I've such high hopes for the mini sets! Pigments, paints, pearlglide liners, shadesticks - that would be fabulous!
