Saturday Thoughts and Weekend Reads July 18

saturday steals and deals

Saturday again! The female population of Kuala Lumpur and maybe even other parts of Malaysia will likely be congregated at Renaissance Hotel from 5am this morning for the Estee Lauder warehouse sales.

Me? I’d be tucked up in bed snoozing :) I’d been for the sales for the past few years and decided I’d had enough. You can get some really good deals if you like the brands and I’m sure we’ll be seeing a lot of hauls around soon ;)

As for me, I might be down at Ikea hitting up the sale there yay! Has anyone been yet? Is the sale good? Anything to report?

Not quite a shopping steal or deal, but has anyone tried the new Haagen Daz Apricot and Cream ice cream?

Haagen Daz Apricot Cream

I’m not much of an ice-cream person- I prefer sorbets and lighter textures but I can’t stop stuffing my face with this one. Its like a frozen yogurt with bits of chopped up dried apricot – oh so yummy! Oh and limited edition ;)

Benefit Cosmetics is running an online sale of up to 50% off. Usual free shipping internationally with purchases over $115 and using code WORLD115.

Speaking of Benefit Cosmetics, did you know its now available on StrawberryNET.com? I just learnt it myself and I’m pleased!! No more having to hit $115 for free shipping! You don’t get the latest stuff, but you do get some nice stuff at already discounted prices and loyalty discounts and free ship to boot! I’ve just picked up the Powder Pop Palette – Dallas, Dandelion and Hoola in one palette for under RM90 (!!) – might this get me over my fear of bronzer? :D Can’t wait till it gets here!

And here are some weekend reading material from other sites around the interweb. Enjoy!!
