I HAVE to buy The Falsies mascara for DD, I'm sure it is more expensive than the Great Lash but it will still be a good buy IMO. Me, I'm a Cover Girl mascara girl. I got lots of cotton balls today and used up the end of my Archer Farms k-cup coupons. I long for the old days of pdf TQ's. There are more Maybelline coupons available but they're only $1/1. I mentioned the $2 because it expires this week. You could still wait for a sale or price cut on the Falsies. There were other varieties on clearance, but they were all black-brown colors left which I didn't want.
IMO it's not the mascara itself, but the technique. I've used all kinds of mascara from Lancôme to Maybelline and I think there's just not that much difference except in the wands. Cover Girl Lash Blast has sucky wands and I won't buy that kind.
Here's my technique for my super-fine lashes: Curl the lashes every time. wipe most mascara off against the inner neck of the tube as you remove wand from tube. apply to every lash from base to tips, then stroke again, on the tips. Aside: I run my old mascara wands through the dishwasher to clean and sanitize them and use them for this and to trim my eyebrows. Immediately use one of these clean wands to separate each lash and remove any clumps or excess mascara (it's so much better than the eyelash comb that comes with makeup brushes). Allow to dry. Repeat. Repeat again if necessary. this thickens and lengthens each lash individually. It will eliminate that stabby look when someone's eyelashes all stick together into like 5 mega-lashes, and it looks like they have 5 REALLY sharp eyelashes that could harm you if she rammed her head into you.
Also, I find mascara is easier to work with after I've used a tube about 5 times. It's too "wet" or something those first few times.
Agreed, new mascara needs a chance to get broken in--there's just too much of it or something. I'll have to go see what they have tomorrow. I haven't even clipped my coupons yet, but I am excited about cheaper mascara. My stockpile has grown so much this week thanks to Target and everyone sharing their finds!

Oh jeez I just re-read it and that was like the Sheldon Cooper explanation for mascara.
I need meds and sleep. I love Sheldon!

If you look under "entertainment" in cartwheel, there is TurboTax and H&R Block software.
Doing taxes is not really what I'd call entertainment. But there is no category for "frustrating obligation to your government," so entertainment it must be.

I am trying to put together a target plan. I don't know why I am having such trouble getting this together. I am gonna blame Loki. Who btw this week has gone from random sporadic moving to MC Hammer dance party. It's because there is too much fish going on at Target this week. It's overwhelming. I think I've been there at least four times already, including the death star McHenry Target, multiple transactions every trip, and I haven't even hit MY target yet. Fortunately (?) I'm running out of coupons so the madness can stop soon.
some L'Oreal Advanced shampoo/conditioner are on sale for $3.99 (these are the ones that are free with haircolor purchase). There is IPTQ for $2 off, plus insert MQ for $1. Makes it $.99. Not the best, but I was down to the bottom of my shampoo barrel and I've been using stupid suave.
The "Value Packs" promo Target rolled out in their seasonal area right after Christmas was clearanced out is now on clearance. 2-packs of Dawn 20 oz bottles (so 40 oz total) are 50% off at $2.48. There are IPs out for $.50 off power clean, bleach alternative, etc, which these are.
I checked out the makeup again. I had Maybelline IPs for $2 off any lip color that expire next week. There are also $2 insert Qs. The clearance lipsticks weren't all obviously marked. When I opened up the lipstick display (lifted the flap to see the lipsticks), I could see the red stickers. Some were marked $2.48; some $3.xx but the $3.xx ones scanned at $2.48 so check prices. $.48 lipstick

I just got back and there were those huge boxes of diapers for 50% off. Mostly Huggies, $19.98 for I think it was 176 size two snug and dry and 168 size 4 snug and dry. There were also the lower count huge boxes of little snugglers and little movers. Goes nicely with the coupons from last weekend.

Yes i printed more on the same computer using a different pg account. Beyotch cashier marked them down to 1.77 for me though. Will try to print more later. Thanks nikki on the diaper tip!! I was just there and mine were still marked 15% off. I should've scanned them but didn't have time. Will Try to get back later.. and avoid beyotch cashier ;-)
