Look ULTA, I don't want your darn fragrances!

[_Jersey Girl]

I've had it with you, ULTA. Every time I get your new store ad via email or snail mail (I get both), you have some cute little free gift to go with purchases. For example, you have those cute little wheeled totes. They're so cute, I want one! But can I get it? NO! And why not? Because I have to make a 30$ FRAGRANCE purchase to get one!

What is your deal? I regularly buy tons of stuff from you, ULTA! I have eye shadows, makeup brushes, Stilla lip glaze (do you KNOW how much those are? 22 fricking dollars a piece!) and might I add, Bare Minerals that cost like 35$ a pop! Are my cosmetic dollars not worthy of free gifting?????

Did I get the cute little bronze straw purse this summer?

NO.

Do I get the cute wheeled totes?

NO.

I don't want your darn fragrances! I want your free gifts (which really aren't free since I have to buy 25-35$ worth of stuff--only fragrances--to get them).

I want my (not) free gifts and I want them now!

<---Didn't get this in bronze!!

Hey, Jersey Girl, I love perfume! I love totes, too. Maybe we can come to some sort of deal? LOL

Now you've gone and done it. I'm going to have to look at the ULTA site. If I spend money I don't have, it's all your fault. LOL

[_Jersey Girl]

No, don't bother! All they really have right now is free shipping on...fragrances. They do have some other types of makeup bags/totes, but they're boring. I love perfume too. I'm not allowed to wear it to work and so what I already have lasts forever. No way I can justify 35$ fragrance purchases.

If you do happen to look, notice that the Bare Minerals samples (nice to carry in your purse) also require a purchase. They used to be giveaways!

ULTA really gripes me!

It's OK...I didn't spend any money at ULTA. I spent money on my perfume site instead. LOL

This is a great place to buy perfume online:

My favorite scent is the "Sex in the City-Kiss".

I bought it in New York one time for a street vendor. I didn't think I would ever be able to find it again, and they have it all the time for really great prices.

I picked up two gift sets....lotion and perfume for $20 a piece! I couldn't pass it up.

You're hopeless, woman! I'm not going to buy anything from ULTA (this week) and that's final!

Good Lord....We're so much alike, it's scary. Are you sure we aren't twins separated at birth? LOL

[_Jersey Girl]

Speaking of fragrances...have you got any of the "Wall Flowers" from Bath and Body Works? I'm transferring my ULTA dollars to B&Brad Wilcox!

And yes, we were separated at birth! You didn't know that?

They have Vanilla Caramel. Just like Starbucks!

That sure was kind of you. Did he appreciate the gift?
