(Lash Intense mascara, ColorIcon eyeshadow trios in Sweet As Candy (top) and Walking On Eggshells (bottom), Mega Volume mascara)
I thought these were all $2.99. I'm on a serious budget right now, so I wanted to take advantage of this sale, but I didn't want to buy any one item that over $2.99. That was my limit. And I figured that I could get 4 items if they were all $2.99, so I settled on these. Well, only the Mega Volume mascara and two eyeshadow trios were $2.99. The Lash Intense mascara was $4.99, which I didn't know, because the mascaras are on this little display that spins and it only shows the price of one $2.99 mascara (I think it was the Mega Blink or something). I just assumed all of them were $2.99. My main reason for getting the Lash Intense one was that it had a $1.00 off manufacturer's sticker attached to it.
So I get up to the cashier, she rings it up, and it comes to like $10.68. I asked her to check everything. I finally saw that the one mascara was $4.99, not $2.99, but by that time I was just wanting to get out of there. That one is going to be exchanged tomorrow for something else (I'll get another mascara).
Yes, I'm super cheap, LOL.
I love those Color Icon trios, though- see my review of the one I have here. I've never tried their mascaras, and for $2.99 I don't expect them to be great, but we'll see! Any recommendations on which one I should get tomorrow? Or should I keep the Lash Intense? They also have a Mega Protein one, the Mega Blink (Curling), and a thickening/volumizing one.
Update:
I tried out the Mega Volume mascara and I really dislike it. It didn't stick to my lashes or anything- you can hardly tell I'm wearing mascara. I'll do a more in-depth review of this soon, but for now, don't spend your $2.99 on it! Not worth it!
And last but not least, I saw the new Rimmel Volume Flash Curves mascara:
(Sorry for the poor cell phone picture quality!)
It's in a display with the regular Volume Flash mascara. Anyone tried this yet? I'm very curious. You could get it with the $1.00 Rimmel coupon over at All You's coupon site, if you want to save money. It's retailing at Walgreen's for $6.99.
