As you might guess from the title, Caroline and I made it safely to the Lush party in NLC. The Lush in our particular area is a Lush Macy's, that is to say, Lush rents a chunk of space from Macy's and has a smaller store in that chunk. So, finding the party entailed wandering through Macy's in order to find the Lush.
This was not without its perils for two shopaholic Southern belles the likes of ourselves. I got waylaid by the display of Crocs and nearly fell victim to the Mary Jane Crocs. Caroline was not much help in talking me down ("I don't suppose Mr. Samoa sent a credit card with you?", she inquired hopefully) but I was able to escape their jaws. Fortunately, we soon found the Lush display. You had to spend $45 to get the free gift. Um, we did and then some, shall we say. I dropped $60 and Caroline dropped $100, and we were some of the lighter spenders present. The free gift was really cool though. High rollers such as ourselves actually got two each. You got a gift bag with a bubble bar and a bath bomb, and then you got your choice of a box that was a leftover prepackaged Christmas gift. We are talking about $50 just in free gifts here! We were super excited.
I got: two Godiva shampoo bars, a big thing of Joy of Jelly shower jelly, a Happy Pill bath bomb, an Amandopondo bubble bar, and a chunk of Lily Savon soap. The last item is new this year and, from what I understand, very popular. Caroline got a couple Wiccy Magic Muscles massage bars, a huge thing of Happy Hippy shower gel, and I think she got a body butter but I'm not sure. Plus, of course, respective free gifts. We're broke, but we smell good, dammit!
