| - This store would always gets five stars if not for the thoroughly oppressive, annoying-as-hell staff who will NOT leave you alone! I got approached by no less than three people, two of whom asked if "I'm finding everything alright today" and the third of whom put a basket in my hands "for easy shopping today." let me tell you, like the Target phenomenon I mentioned in that review, I purposely do NOT take a basket at Sephora because it is way too easy to spend over a hundred dollars in the blink of an eye.
Yesterday I was, thankfully, not shopping for myself but for someone else, so I issued control. The same annoying basket lady rang me up, and in her singsongy, plastic voice, was SUPER CURIOUS as to why I don't have a rewards card!!!! Like, OMIGOD! As a side note, I never do rewards cards, store credit cards, or the like, and am pissed anytime anybody asks me for my contact info upon checking out. Leave me the eff alone and let me buy stuff without the guarantee that I'll get an email a day from Sephora when I really can't be bothered to get out to the store more than once or twice a year!
Anyways, she then says, "Your lipstick color is GORGEOUS."
Yay? That was nice. ."Thanks!"
"What shade is it?"
"It's Butter Scotch by Clinique, but it's discontinued, so I usually get it on eBay."
"OH NO!, it's here! I know we have it! Here, lemme get one of our floor associates to help you...."
NOoOOOOOOooooOOOO! Fuck. I fell for it. But I humored them. After fucking checking out here I am face to face with another Barbie doll telling me to follow her.
The color is not there. Ha, ha, I told you!
Merry Christmas, now let me get the fuck out of here!!
