Hi Everyone,

I have a 15% off code for SAKS (sadly expires tonight). I'm not trying to enable anyone, but if you PLANNED to purchase something that can be found at SAKS, you can save some money in addition to all that you have saved with your low buy! I haven't tested this particular code, but in the past they have worked for me on beauty purchases. These coupons are the only way I know of to save money on brands like Tom Ford, Le Metier de Beaute, etc.
Let me know if you can use the code. I wanted to offer it here to all the kind ladies of this thread.

Great. Got ya, The 30 lippies in 30 days is a great idea and I actually wear all my lipglasses (I'm not a l/s person). I think I'm just trying to Not spend so much this year, since school. And try to actually use the items I have more. I'm home most of the time, so gotta think of a creative way to get the most out my stash for the times I don't go anywhere. Should be interesting.

After a couple more attempts to hack my way to a pink-coral lip (neither of which went well), I've decided the best solution for me is to break my lipstick or lipgloss no-buy and get a pink-coral lip colour. :nods: It is a gap in my collection, after all, and it is a colour I'd get a fair amount of use out of, IMO, particularly during the summer.

Sounds reasonable. I think a pink-coral lip is great for a natural look without being the typical "your lips but better" shades, if that makes sense.

this did not quote.. lol. but as to prices coming down, very very unlikely. We will see the nickel and dime 50 cent increments until doomsday. Nothing will drop in price/ Fed might raise interest rates too.. so that's a negative as well.

as to my "secret" ... it will have to hold till next Tuesday when I get confirmation of all that I am expecting

to happen.

No rules! Each person has there own rules, it depends on what your goals are! Some are just limiting the amount from each collections others have a number of products per month or the whole year. Others are using monetary limits. Some are trying to avoid certain product types. The key is to access your stash and set the rules that help you reach your low but aims. Personally I am trying to reduce the volume in My stash my purging and be more selective in what I buy. Currently some people, me included are wearing 30 different lippies for 30 days, this is helping us decide what really works and what doesn't but also show dome love to our stashes. A lot of people have done full inventories and posted the results as a way of recognising the issues in the stash they have and what they need to do to reach the stash they want. We offer support in purchasing descision and try to discourage huge hauls that are rash decisions rather than considered purchases. We also support each other with other life issues, anything goes as long as it isn't enabling!
Great summary!
