Good Morning Dear Reader:
This is the way I want to go !
Although it is a lovely Friday, I am still no closer to resolving my technology problems, although miracle of miracles, I can get to the Internet, just not my e-mail or contacts on either my computer or phone.
Believe me, Bill Gates is staying up nights trying to fix my Microsoft Outlook issues. And I am grateful. I will be more grateful when I can contact people by some other form than telepathy. I hope all of you got those personal messages I beamed out yesterday. I’ll be sending more today, so get ready. Some may include winning lottery numbers, George Clooney’s personal cell number, Donald Trump’s ATM code, and Demi Moore’s plastic surgeon’s name, number and discount code. Stay tuned.
Fall on sale now!
One of my favorite stores, Nordstrom, has started their anniversary sale today! If you can’t get there in person, go to their Website, shop.nordstrom.com. They have the most gorgeous boots of all kinds that are 30%+ on sale. For the first time in my memory, they have Uggs on sale, and not last season’s styles. The classic Kensington regularly $199.95 is now $139.95, the Mare at $169.95 is $109.90 and the Abbie Clog at $129.95 is $89.90. If not for yourself, some lucky girl on your Christmas list would be thrilled with a pair.
Check out their women’s apparel for all the great fall coats, faux fur vest (sale $89.90 from $137) and also designer apparel is on sale at great values.
Both Nordstrom and Dillard’s have a first, the Shape-ups Sketchers in several styles are now $67-$69 from original prices of $99-$109.
At $67-$69 these Shape-Ups are a deal!
In person or online, the deals are calling!
Of real benefit…
In the new Lucky Magazine, I found two great gifts either for a friend or just for you! Benefit cosmetics has two great new samplers of some of their best products. Each contains eyeliner, gloss, cheek color, and four shadows, plus step-by-step instructions. You can find them at Sephora or at major department stores. The cases are gorgeous! $38
Speaking of good deals…
You know I love magazines and right now there are so many bargains out there because many are struggling with this economy to stay afloat. If you love one or more, do consider subscribing and giving gift subscriptions for Christmas and birthdays or just to someone you know would love a reminder once a month that they are special to you.
Here are just a few great offers:
Allure, the beauty expert, gives you 9 free issues plus a darling red tote bag and makeup case for $10, which is a one year’s subscription. Or get two years and the goodies for $18 plus $2 handling.
Lucky, the fun shopping guide, has 12 issues for $14.97 or 24 issues (2 years) for $19.97! For the young girl in your life, you can get Lucky and TeenVogue for $20 for a one year subscription for both.
Conde Nast Traveler, a great magazine, has 12 issues for $13 and 24 issues for $24 (includes shipping cost).
There are more great deals out there, just go online and find your favorite and check out the great offers!

Revlon has a new Grow Luscious Mascara which claims 96% of women testers saw “instantly longer lashes”. It also claims to strengthen lashes to complement their growth cycle. If you are using or have tried it, weigh in. Inquiring minds want to know!
