Benefit make-up palette worth £16.50 for the price of a mag

Thank you to the person who nicked all of the Style Stalker Supplements from WHS in Cheltenham. I did manage to get a magazine from Tesco's but guess what Benefit in HoF all cleared out, they had only been sent 1 box of freebies anyway, which even the assistant thought was a very mean supply.

Sorry, Alba37 - I wasn't lucky enough to get any. Mum got one in the Fort and I went in following day they had none left. She also told me they weren't any left in Glasgow Boots, Frasers or debenhams.

The offer is not as simple as taking the advert to the benefits counter. You need to book a make up lesson, which is free. Then after a refresher make up lesson in january then you recieve the palette.
The magazine has not printed the info properly and benefit are contacting them regarding this. The benefit staff are coming in for a lot of stick and its not their fault so go easy on them.

I bought the magazine yesterday (4th of November). I'm assuming it was issued right at the end of October, so this is, what, 5 days since the offer started?

I went into Oxford today and both Boots and Debenhams were out of stock of the palettes. They both said they all went immediately. So, I spent £3 on a magazine I didn't really want, and £1.80 on parking, and I got nothing for my trouble. Definitely not worth the bother!

On the other hand, I DID find a shoe shop on my travels that sold shoes in my size (no mean feat when you take a size 9-10) so it wasn't all bad... expensive, but not actually bad

Oh bless, I hate it when that happens, they should have enough of these stocked everywhere to anticipate demand!

Re: The shoe problem, evans do a footwear range, and they stock a 9 - but with it being a wide fitting you have to go down a size, so an 8-9 in evans will probably be the perfect sizes for you. I'm a wide fitting 7 and I have always bought a 6 from there. HTH

None left in Norwich. Got an abrupt response from Debenhams so tried House of Fraser where the S/A said this was first publicised 2 months ago and that all the stock went within a few days. Very disappointed, they never seem to have enough when there is a free item. :-(

Does anyone have any comments on the colours?
I didn't get one but am considering getting from ebay.
I have dark bown hair and eyes.
Either considering the nudes or the pinks (not the peach) but would be grateful for any opinions on either.
The nudes is probably favourite at the moment.

Debenhams at Meadowhall, Sheffield said they are not getting them in until January? Anyone else heard this? She took my name and number but sounds strange to me!
