This makes me laugh since I have a friend (unfortunately sans bicycle) who helped her at Sephora and said she was highly strung an frugal while shopping

[tucker]

well glad she walks the talk!

I read a mini interview from a Chanel makeup counter girl who said you could never know what to expect from people, someone might gasp in shock at a $30 lipstick and basically run away while another would casually drop $1,000+ on a full set of makeup + brushes +skincare etc

I'm a country bumpkin who never gets to splurge on city shopping. I found myself in Minneapolis for a Rammstein concert, and gave myself permission to buy Baccarat Rouge perfume for $800. 😂😂😂 I'm sure some gothy sweatpant wearing 42 year old in that store raised a few eyebrows, but I knew exactly what I wanted. 😂

I’m such a peasant that I didn’t even know such expensive and fancy perfume existed!!!! 😝

Awwwww since you usually never, heck yeah, treat yourself bb!!!!! ❤️

I'm an internet junkie who loves to read, so I knew about it. 😂

I never buy from city/stores, mostly eBay and grey market discount sites. 😜 I love wearing fancy rich people shit while in my jammies. 😂😂😂 which is why I adore going into their stores in Slayer hoodies and Chucks. 😘

Oooooomg what sites bb?!?!! Do they guarantee authenticity??? 🤔

OMG YOU ARE THE BEST!!!! You’re reminding me of my badass late grandmother… she’d rock her gold jewelry with sweats and pajamas 🤣🥰😆 such a G

My trusted faves are Fragrancenet, FragranceX, and Scented Monkey on ebay. Always authentic for me! Fnet does random eBay listings of 95% full bottles with no box for dirt cheap too. I got a 2.5 oz Creed for $49 once. 😆 its so random tho, and comes down to luck.
PayPal credit allows 6 mo no interest on over $100 purchases, which is how I snagged some fancy Chanel once. 😜

Love her! And you! 😘😘😘

Oh heck yeah - I figured you were savvy so I thought I would ask so I don’t get scammed lol 😝 OMG I LOVE when you get a damn good score!!!!!

$800?!! omg.

[devoida_taste]

Yeah, I know... Lol. If I die with some left, embalm my corpse with it.

We tried to find an expensive city rooftop restaurant to splurge at (I've never been) but it NEVER occurred to us to need reservations. Whoop, country girl again. 😂 so, all in all, I don't feel too bad about the perfume. 😂
