i was feeling so superior for passing on the holiday stuff! Sadly, it only takes 25% & free shipping to get me to cave! Coral lipglosses, come to mama!

Oh very interesting! So maybe they were priced too high to begin with?
Or is it a psychological thing where people just love a good sale?
IMO, I think the original price was a bit high. These should be affordable, little luxury type Christmas gifts... and now they are!

I bought the warm pigments for my sister. I already got all I wanted from the collection, for fear of it selling out.

I have both the Cool eyes palette and the coral lipgloss set in my MAC shopping bag. Really debating about getting them, as I wanted the cool eyes set for a while, but really hated the packaging (yes, MAC, I know you can design a better looking palette that doesn't look scream "I shop at Hot Topic" whenever I pull it out of my purse). The coral lipgloss set looks so wearable too. The pink lipstick/gloss set also is calling my name, but I am still on the fence about this one.
Probably the best item out all these sets are the Warm pigment set, as these are some of MACS most gorgeous pigments. Unfortunately I already have all except one of the pigments. Phooey!

I can't believe MAC is doing a sale. lol So unheard of. But yeah I believe they aren't making monies. I walked passed the MAC counter at my local mall and can we say EMPTY? It was kinda eerie. lol

The e-mail said that the sale lasts until supplies last. I still think that I am going to try and not get anything. Team no!

I dont think its a must have..but since they are on sale, its not a bad deal...2 lipsticks and a mini gloss for less than 2 regular priced lipsticks

Does anyone know if MAC UK are going to mark down there gift sets, i hate the thought of buying something full price only to see it being lowered a few hours later, it would be just my luck.

Can't see that ever happening unforunately.
Best we tend to get is free postage offers on a certain collection, from time to time, that last about 5 days. It was the Metal x collections turn this time but it ended on the 16th. I used the free shipping to buy the 217 brush as it was one of the brushes they were advertising it in the metal x coll.
Went to order the Adoring Carmine face brush set online a couple of days ago, at full price, £39.15 but they were sold out. Infact they are sold out of all the different brush sets. So foned Selfridges in the Trafford centre in a panic and asked if they had any there, she said yes don't worry and put one set by for me, which i collected yesterday. Soon as i got back home with them along with my very first Mac foundation, my b/friend said "Right come on hand it all over". I was like whaaaa!! He said "I didn't buy it for you to wear now, it's for Chrimbo". Tsk! I've already seen it all, smelt it all, touched it, hugged it, been to buy it to save him a journey, so seems pointless having to wait, hehe. I'm so impatient. I only started on Mac in April this year so i'm dying to use them brushes. Oh well only a few days left to wait.
