Wednesday, December 3rd, 2008 | General, Makeup, Sales, Skincare, Stores | Comments Off

Good news!  The Bobbi Brown Cosmetics Friends & Family sale I posted about has just been extended for 1 more day!  (I know – Why extend it for just one day when you could extend it for a week?)

The Bobbi Brown Friends & Family code BFF08A is now good until midnight ET on December 4, 2008.

It’s good for 20% off any online order of Bobbi Brown products, with free shipping and free samples.

Limited Time Only: Invitation Codes to Member-Only Online Designer Sales with Bonus Credits!

Friday, November 28th, 2008 | General, Lingerie, Sales, Skincare, Stores | 1 Comment

The latest development in online shopping is member-only websites selling designer products at large discounts. These member-only shopping sites, such as Gilt.com and Hautelook.com, notify their members of the online sales on a per-designer basis, but there’s a catch: each online sale only lasts for a limited time before “closing.”

These member-only sites work largely on the basis of generating urgency and feelings of exclusivity, and certain products sell out quite quickly. Unfortunately, sites such as HauteLook.com often do not ship products until well after the end of the sales period, so shoppers may have to give up some shipping speed in exchange for prices that are usually 50-70% off retail.

Here are some limited time only invitation codes provided by InStyle Magazine:
- Hautelook.com code: “instyle” (membership plus $20 off first purchase) until December 1, 2008.
