I want it though!!!

can you still redeem it if your ID name is different from the name on the post card but it is you that they send it to? what store does your MA worked at? just wanted to know because i am redeeming mine at the MAC Store on Fillmore St in SF.

I'm going to try to redeem it. the name on the post card is me but i have a different name on my ID. i have a vietnamese name so when a store ask me for my name to put on their system, i use my english name. the name on my ID is my vietnamese name but on the post card its my english name.

What a cute postcard!

I think the idea of a region-based exclusive like this is very interesting. it'd be great to see one done over here - we miss out on some collections and the like, so our own special exclusive would be pretty cool.

I hope I am one of the lucky few!

You know, this finally makes sense. I used to buy almost everything from EVERY collection, and I rarely got postcards. Then I went through a dry spell where I did the same neutral look every day for months, and I was getting postcards like mad at both my addresses. Lame.

ETA: Cute postcard. And it *is* cool of MAC to do this, no company is obligated to give away free product, or come out with cool exclusives.

Wow will they take the postcard back from you after you redeem the lipstick?

I really hope my friend in CA gets one!

if you go into your online account, there is an option to recieve mailers from your nearest store. you gotta have that option selected in order to receive them.

Thank You Erine! But on my account it just says "to recieve email". Oh well, I'll email customer service.

Darn, I guess no free Mac for me! Kinda Sucks! And I do agree with SMMY regarding the "bring cupcakes for everyone, or none at all" life lesson.

 

[V2LUCKY]

I want one!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[sofabean]

aww boooooo! why must they insist on punishing good customers? they're basically telling us to stop buying mac for a period of time--long enough for them to notice and then reward us for not buying their products anymore.

 

[MAC_Diva]

One more thing to add to the list of things Florida doesn't have. Lol! I love my state, but i want free lipstick too!

 

[coachkitten]

I really want one of these lipsticks!

They should really do this for every state!

 

[ashleydenise]

I better get a postcard!

I kind of feel the same, though I do buy from the paddo store when I need to.
