Which store was that? I got some from a San Diego store that had Alluring Aquatics. I should get my stuff tonight. I will want to see if I want any backups. I'm still intrigued by the mascara and brush....I don't miss the stress and 60-hour work week of my old job but I sure miss the money for stuff like Mac :)

King of Prussia, a suburb outside of Philadelphia.

LOL! I live in Boca Raton, but literally as far west as you can get-- so luckily we were not in an evacuation zone, and honestly it's not too bad now! Power is still on. :) My mom lives in Jupiter (about an hour north) and her power is out and they're getting slammed way worse. We only had tropical storm winds, and 25% change of hurricane force winds. It wobbled a little east I guess last night, so it helped out a lot. But parts of Florida are definitely getting it right now! Thanks for looking out. :)

Be safe Lauren!

:thankyou::thankyou:
Not sure what you mean? I had my Macy's receipt. I was prepared to give them all the information on it ( read to the original CS)....and sign in blood but since it was Macy's not Mac it didn't matter. The one CS who had said it was OK...couldn't figure out how to enter. Duh. I had called. Got confirmation. Then bought. It was either a single Trolls eyeshadow or an eyeshadow and a second item. Anyway, since the manager gave me more points than I was seeking as a one-time goodwill gesture she didn't need to see a receipt and it wouldn't have mattered....you can't get the points for Macy purchases. Hope this answers your questions. P.S. the manager said the points would show up the next day and they did. I'm still mad that I didn't pre-order. Stupid, stupid on my part. I am sure hoping for a restock. I'd love to know how similar BBBB is to Pure Fiction (Novel Romance) minus the sparkle or Reckless Desire. I think Reckless Desire is my all-time favorite lipglass. It's so unique imo. (oh, wait Wrong Spell is my all-time favorite but I'm hoarding my backups). I really, really regret not getting backups of Reckless Desire. I wear it only occassionally cause it's getting quite low in the tube. I think it's so pretty. I figure it's more purple than BBBB but wonder if the sparkle is similar.

Lol, I am not sure why what you wrote wasn't clear enough in the first place to me. I think I was just too wiped out from today's activities to compute it. I zonked out and am now reading it. I totally understand. Thank you once again for your help..I really appreciate it. :)))

Interesting! I didn't know that. Both of my 129s are SE. In fact, part of my first brush set I got was a 129. I see the brush and mascara are both still up on Dillards....trying to avoid the siren call. Heading home. Hubby says package is on the front door step.

Yeah my first and only MAC brushes are a Christmas set from the early 2000's or even late 90's and I still use it daily!! The 129, 161 and 239 I use daily. Love that 239. Oh wait, last year I think Macy's messed up with the pricing on one in a limited collection, an angled duo fiber and I got it for I think $20. Ah yes, the 161.

Thank you so much for all those tips! I am going to give it a go right now. Like you said all they can say is no. But how were they able to confirm that one good time credit with you? Did they ask for your receipt information over the phone or did they as you to send a picture of the receipt to them via email?

I had to give them the info off my receipt yesterday to get my points, but it was a MAC store purchase. And they verified that it was first. Good luck!

Brilliant haul. Can't wait for my stuff next week.

Thanks <3 It's broke me haha I have a BU of Amor Prohibido on it's way as I'm all about the nudes at the minute and I can enjoy using it without worrying! Been thinking of a BU of DOY but i've spent enough!! Can't wait to see your haul.

MMB is a dream to apply, not chalky, used my MAC 239 of course. Wish my AP delivered because I would have worn it. Instead this is Jeffree Star's Celebrity Skin Lip Ammunition :rolleyes::p

this was my first MAC collection in a long time and i don't miss the launch struggle. my mom was able to get all 3 lipsticks for her and me. she went to the mall on her lunch break and the MAC store was sold out, the MAC counter in Nordstrom was sold out, but the MAC counter in Macy's was well stocked. Apparently no one knows it's there! So I'm happy I got what I wanted and she got some things too! Congrats to everyone who got what they wanted. I feel like this launch was way worse than RiRi's.

I like this softer look even better than yesterday's, but both look fab on you!

Thanks hun.

Omg, my AP shipment hasn't updated on the UPS website since yesterday at 9 am and USPS is still waiting for it and it's causing me a bit of anxiety because I had the chance to get another yesterday and passed. I should have been getting it today *cold sweating*

I actually think it was better, well for me anyway. This time we had the pre-sale for Devoted and Obsessed and I found the store to be less of a craze than with RiRi. I think it may be that the fans are different.

I'm getting worried about my phone sale with MAC in King of Prussia. They told me yesterday around 5 PM that they would process my order in a few minutes. Nothing has been charged to my card. They also said they'd call me with tracking and I haven't heard anything. I tried to call today and their phone goes straight to voicemail. I gave them my debit card number because it's the only card I had with me yesterday so now I'm worried about it falling into the wrong hands. I'll probably have it canceled and get a new one in a few days just in case.

If my order with them falls through I hope MAC at least does a re-stock. Everything around here is sold out now. Anyone know of any stores still accepting phone orders by chance?

Is it a standalone or one in Macy's or something? If it's the latter, call through the store and ask to be transferred to the counter. I remember it felt like forever waiting for a phone order to go through once with Nordstrom because I was anxious and a little wary. I got an email with the receipt a few hours after though. It wasn't a day later. Hmmm.
