you heard it here first
Ladies and Gentleman - if you hate shopping in the crowds - - - GO SHOPPING NOW. Seriously.
Let me tell you why.
The fiscal year isn't over for cosmetic companies. THAT means FOR YOU - companies and now either raising their prices for spring :( OR they are changing locations (in-store product is going on sale) :) AND/OR they are phasing out products. PLUS .... nobody is shopping right now. If you already didn't know, the departments stores are least full between New Years and Valentines day.
Case in Point: Laura Geller - this little company hit it big on the home shopping tv channels - but it's now learning it should really do some better target and interest marketing before buying up space in high-priced stores. It's a rough sell when your customers know that they can order it from their tv at a lower price. Why buy something at retail when you can buy it more wholesale just as easy? I heard from a customer today that told me all of their products were 75% off in south Florida, and I know of places up in Michigan where it is at least 50% off. So if you're a fan of their primer, blush, or waterproof liners GO GET 'EM WHILE THEY LAST!!!
On the other side of the net - expect to rising in prices where companies are feeling quite comfortable. Philosophy, for example, just raised their prices on almost all of their products :( One dollar more for every product. LAME
