I'm planning to get their current GWP at Macy's. The required amount is $21.50. I'm thinking of getting an e/s quad, which is $21.50, but after checking the colors on their website, they're not all that appealing. Of course I'd have to see them in person to really see.

I'm looking for pretty spring colors (peachy colors). I also checked out the trio's and duo's too. Anywho, in case I get a duo or trio, I'd need to spend a few more $ to get to $21.50.

I was thinking of getting a pencil sharpener or maybe a makeup puff. I don't know if they actually sell them. Do any of you guys know what I can get for just a couple of bucks? Also, any recs would be great. TIA!!

Yes, they do have sharpeners, and yes, I've used that trick, too, in order to qualify for GWPs lol. Hey, when you don't NEED another product, you don't NEED it, period.

And a sharpener is a great little cheap thing that can always come in handy :)!

I guess I should add that I've picked up 2 of their new cream e/s, and they are really fantastic if you have oily lids (I don't, but they work really well). No creasing, come in a wand-style tube, and wear well on their own or as a shadow base. I think they're approx. $14., and come in a nice selection of neutrals, including the cream version of their infamous Lucky Penny e/s!

Oh I bet that's pretty! I have the powder version, and it doesn't get as much love as it should.

Clinique shadows are so under-rated. I have some gorgeous ones in the brown/neutral family. If you like lots of bright colors, then this line's probably not for you. I love their eyeliner pencils also. I can'[t remember their price, but Clinique sems to be cheaper than any of the other department store brands.

I generally get a couple of lip glosses or superbalms at around $14 or $10, respectivelly. I hate it the way they calculate the amount you have to spend - it's a coupleof dollars above their least expensive item, so you have to buy more than you wanted to!

I've picked up a Superbalm before to round out a purchase-it's a great lipbalm!

I agree that Clinique's eyeshadows are underrated. Definitely check them out in person rather than only going by online swatches. I highly rec High Impact Mascara and the Soft-Pressed Powder Blushers if you like natural, buildable, easy-to-blend warm blush shades. I wear Mocha Pink, Totally Tawny, Plum Gorgeous and Chestnut Blush. I also love their True Bronze Bronzer in Sunkissed (I have the pressed version).

Thanks for the recs girls!! Yeah, I'm gonna stop by the counter on Saturday to check it out.

Christine, I heard how great their new cream shadows are too, and I'm definitely interested in those.

As for the lippies and balms, I definitely don't need any more, lol.

Marisa, I don't wear blush or bronzer, but thanks for the recs. :)

I'll most likely get two eyeshadow items, probably one duo and a cream e/s. :D
