I have to confess right up front - I am a Cosmetic Junkie. I love Shopper's Drugmart or any cosmetic counter for that matter. Well, I use to be an Avon Lady - but hey - don't give up your day job.
So, because this blog is about saving your pennies and eventually big dollars - hopefully - here are more tips and tricks.
As I said recently - okay in my last post - always - every time you go to the cosmetic counter - usually there is a different girl there - ask for a sample of your most precious, your most wanted - high end - face cream. I save them up - and eventually - when my Joviance Cream is used up - I have some left from the samples - to get me through until I can afford the Joviance Cream.
Joviance cream is a mosturizer - ladies - it feels like silk on your face - really!!!!!
I have a friend who loves - okay - adores - Mac lipsticks and glosses - I have a few - they are nice - very nice.
Oh, if you want your feet to feel like silk at night - cream them up with an inexpensive cream - and wrap them up in clear plastic wrap. It's free and it works.
Remember - keep your Optimum Card with you at all times. Always shop on 20X the points days ladies and gentlemen. And only redeem when you get to the $200.00 level - and you have gotten all those dollars back - that you spent on things you thought you really needed.
Here is a video about how to save money wisely on the cosmetics front:
So - use the piggy bank system. Do whatever it takes to save a buck here or there.
Pennies do add up to dollars. I never tell people to completely stop shopping - I mean were a civilized society - I like to think. We are so blessed.
Just say this to yourself - do I really need this? And, sometimes lift your head up high and just walk away!!!!!
Buy cheap e-books instead of the really expensive ones. Below are some examples:
