Our MAC stores have at least three kinds of "events" (Maybe they aren't all called events?) that I have been to,.. the launch event where anyone can come to the store,..and have a makeover if they have scheduled it on the day of the launch,..(Sometimes it costs and sometimes not,.. the $40 here is normally for any makeover appointment even when there is no launch if you want the exclusive treatment) and then the showing where you can sign up and pay a small sum (Like $10) and attend and you get that back in product after the show usually held in a different room than the counter is located,.. (I went to Beau at Nordies like this) and the private stuff like the new Culutrebloom thing coming up on the 13th. I know that the Culturebloom event here that the pretty invites have been circulating about is just that,..ours is by invite only,.. I called my store manager to ask if I needed to keep my actual invite since I have confirmed my appointment (No $$ is involved for this appointment) and was told an emphatic yes. They are going to be closing the store to the general public and serving alcoholic beverages (they have called to remind me twice that I need to bring an ID and that my guest will need hers also,..they really don't want me to forget about it I guess) and little canapes,...I think it just depends on what's going on. It kinda makes me wonder that they are tracking the spending because I noticed that all the people I know here that are big spenders/really frequent customers got their invites way before anyone else did locally,.....Its a good plan though,.. feed us,.. liquor us up,.. and then bring out all the pretty shiny things,.. LOL. Nordies really gets me on this when they do the whole Trend event in the Spring and Fall.
