I’m onto them, the sneaky marketers! Lately, I’ve been receiving random, no-reason, (not the store’s anniversary, not a holiday), $10 gift coupons from stores. They don’t have minimum purchase requirements or it’s minimal ($25). Thus far, I’ve received one from DSW and Sephora. MY TWO WEAKNESSES (after Trader Joe’s, but TJ’s never prints coupons, the marketing geniuses.)!! Unfortunately, I lost my DSW coupon and had to go thru a 6-step get-over-it process.
- Tore up the house looking for it
- Blamed the world
- Beat myself up for losing it
- Talked to anyone who was willing to listen
- Finally came to terms with having lost it
- Vowed to not shop there for a while until I’m over the mourning of having lost it.
It’s good though, I have one fewer pairs of shoes I probably didn’t need taking up space which I do need. *Waah!!* <– crying on the inside!
I’m moving on though. Sephora. It’s an unlosable $10 coupon because it’s online (T8PHKB9E by October 31st, 2008!). Only I’m not sure what to get because there are so many things I want! Right now, I’m thinking NARS blush or Stila Smudge Pots or some sort of eyebrow palette or what the heck, all three! I’ve been sucked in.
goddamned Sephora!!! I can’t ever get checked out without spending over $50 for free shipping, but it’s usually closer to $100, just cause it’s so easy to find something else I want.
haha darn… I didn’t get one from sephora… at least not that I know of. Not like I’d be able to use it anyway though considering my budget. I don’t even know if I’m going to be able to use the one from dsw…if you want it, you can have it. I can mail it over…or you could just use the online code I think. Either way, if you want it, let me know.
I agree. It’s so easy to get sucked in by Sephora. That’s ok about the DSW one. Thanks all the same!
