BULLETINED

Will you do me a favor? Yes, you.

I am obsessed with Chanel Chance eau de parfum. It's all I wear.

Last Christmas, when my mom gave me a new bottle, she included in my stocking a tiny sample size bottle. It was just the travel sized, .05 oz sample vial that they hand out in stores (when they have them). It was either pay $5 for this little guy, or pay $5 for shipping. So she got the tiny bottle and I loved it.

Until the wreck, when it was a casualty. It got jarred in the car and in my haste to get out of the street, I didn't grab it when I was taking everything out on-site. When I went back to tell the car goodbye, the tiny Chance bottle had fallen out of the car and been stepped on. It was lying in pieces semi-underneath the vehicle.

So since then, every time I go in a department store I always ask the fragrance counter (and the Chanel counter) if they have any samples of Chance. No one ever has had them! I am always told to check back near the holidays because that's the only time they have them. So I did and I've already got three. I'm stocking up! So clearly, if I go back and ask the same people, they are going to get suspicious.

So to you people out there, living not near me in places far, wide and exotic like Birmingham, Auburn, Chattanooga, Tuscaloosa, Warner Robbins, Atlanta, Charlotte, etc., please go to your local Belk's, Macy's or Dillard's even and ask the fragrance salespeople if they have a tiny sample bottle of Chanel Chance perfume. If you are so lucky as to get one for me, let me know and I will send you my address. In return, I will write your birthday post early!

Thank you very much for your attention to the matter. We now return you to your regularly scheduled blogging.

  1. To all who read this post,
    I am a big fan of the samples of Japanese food they give out in the food court of the malls. On your way out of Macy's please pick me up a toothpick or two. Let me know and I'll give you my address. Thanks

  4. Lindsay-
    There is "a Macys'" - not sure which one , In Nashville that is closing and they are having a going out of buisness sale next week. While this is exciting for various shop therapy reasons, maybe they'll be dumping loads of Chanel.
    happy shopping
