MAC Strength Collection Discussion (December 2012)

No way! I'm in Co-op City also. Bronx twinsies!!!!! Shout out! I don't know why I didn't realize you were speaking of the new Macy's being built next to our JC Penney. I can't wait, but since I don't drive, I walk everywhere. I hope they make a good pedestrian pathway to Macy's, cause Bay Plaza is murder if you walk over there and trying to cross from where Applebee's is over to JCPenney can be hazardous to your life. LOL. For some reason I never go to the Macy's in Parkchester. I always go to the one in Herald Square. I guess cause I'm always downtown anyhow.

Oh no no not Hearld Square lol. I love Hearld Square they have so much of a choice and I haven't been there in a long time. I'm talking about the Macy's in the Bronx in Parkchester. Im in co op city in the Bronx and they have a Jcpenny here and they're building a Macy's next to Jcpenny to replace the one in Parkchester.

Totally agree with you MAC-Guy IMO, that's the crucial part. It really makes a difference.

Wow the world is too damn small lol. Yes Bronx tiwns lol. Yup I thought it was just all talk at first, but then I see they're actually building over there. You do know that there is suppose to be a indoor mall built over there as well. It's suppose to be about 75 stores in that one and yes they do need a good pedestrian pathway to Macy's and other stores because the traffic in Bay Plaza is insane now and I don't drive either and living in Co op you don't really need too. I remember when it was just Bay Plaza and no other stores were there yet. I can't stand the Macy's in Parkchester there is nothing there lol, but it looks better than years ago. I love the Macy's in Herald Square there is more of a selection down there the one in Cross County is Ok.I use to be downtown a lot I miss it .

Yeah another Bronx peeps lol. Yes they're nice because I did call up there to ask the girl to hold the Impossibly Sweet Lipglass for me because it was selling out quick and when I did come back in the morning it was there. I just don't like the Macy's how everything is setup and there not much to choose from.

I can't believe we haven't had any kind of product pictures except for Firm Form and the blushes. This is ridonkulous.

 

[purplerinne]

my pro store just got this collection along with Taste and Making Pretty...so it should be popping in stores soon

Ahhhh so jelly!

My store only got received Firm Form (where they do that at?), which I'm getting thanks to my SA. They did receive a good amount of Pink Pigeon, Party Parrot and the rest. Not sure what the demand will be, so not sure how many to have set aside for CPs.

 

[CartoonChic]

I'm checking with my local store again tomorrow. But I know it's their policy to not take pre-orders.

 

[LadyMisfit]

I preordered weeks ago and now I'm wondering if the MA was even able to. I guess I will call a week prior to the release to make sure my list was placed on the side for me.

I would definitely do that. I've heard too many stories of preorders getting lost in the shuffle, so talk to someone there and have them verify not only that you HAVE a preorder, but also the specific items you preordered. It would really suck to have the wrong thing put aside for you and then discover they're sold out of what you wanted in the first place!

Will do thanks. If I'm lucky to see this online and ordered my stuff then I won't even bother going in store.

 

[MACJunkie85]

I called ad checked on my pre-order today. Everything is good! I just hope it stays that way. I ordered 2 Pink Pigeon, 2 Party Parrot, 2 Strong Woman, and 1 Firm Form. I wish this collection would come out already!

 

[pemily]

Might pick up a few things quad blush maybe Need swatches..... Mac hasn't excited me a great deal lately

 

[alexandrapalaci]

Called the 3 Mac stores in Miami and they are not doing preorders...

Nordstroms is doing preorders. Will they get the collection? I am soo confused the rep told me they would receive the collex on Jan. 3 and I have been reading here the opposite.

 

[badassSENORiTA]

I checked mine and the MUA said they're not allowing pre-orders sigh.. oh well :]
I will be staying up all night for online
