I did a bunch of digging online and found a few blogs saying there is a big Spring Savings Event usually in April but then I saw a post on Reddit where someone mentioned a specific skincare sale that happens earlier? Or maybe later? Some people say it depends on your tier like if you are Rouge or VIB and I think Im just VIB right now but I might hit Rouge with this next haul lol. Its all super confusing because some sites say mid-April and others are pointing toward late May. I really dont want to buy everything at full price right now and then have the sale start two days later because that would be actually heartbreaking.

Does anyone know the actual confirmed dates or at least when they usually announce it? I need to know if I should buy a tiny travel size to hold me over or if the big sale is coming sooner than I think...

My must-haves for this haul:

• full size Tatcha Dewy Skin cream


• a backup of the Dior Forever Glow Star Filter


• some new Westman Atelier sticks

Does anyone know if the April dates are confirmed yet or are they pushing it back this time...

I am genuinely so excited to have a screen this big for the basement finally but the technical issues are just killing the vibe and I really need to know if I have 30 days or 90 days or what to get my money back or just swap it out for a Sony or something. I remember reading somewhere that electronics have a shorter window than other stuff at Sams but then someone else told me it was 90 days so I am just confused and dont want to drag this massive box back to the store just for them to tell me I am too late.

It cost me about seven hundred fifty bucks which was my whole budget for the upgrade so I really cant afford to just eat the cost of a broken TV. The box is sitting in my garage taking up so much space and I am just staring at it wondering if I should try to fix the settings one more time or if I am just wasting my time. Its weird because some days it works totally fine and I get all excited again thinking its fixed but then the flickering starts up right in the middle of a movie. Does anyone have experience with their return policy lately because I am getting really nervous that I missed my chance to fix this mess...

I just moved to Columbus and I am totally lost with these giant stores honestly they are so huge and I have no idea if I am getting a deal or not. I am trying to keep my food budget under 250 bucks a month because things are tight right now so I really need to be smart about it. Sorry if this is a really basic question but do people use like a price tracker or just take photos of the tags and compare? I dont want to walk back and forth between stores just to save five dollars...

I also read about some people getting crazy deals at TJ Maxx or Marshalls but whenever I go to the one near my place in Chicago its just a total mess with broken eyeshadow palettes and hair everywhere. Its so frustrating because I know people are getting these things for 40% off somewhere. I have about $150-$200 to spend which isnt much in the luxury world but I was hoping to snag at least a good foundation and a nice palette. Is there like a specific time of year these big houses do sales or maybe some hidden outlet site I dont know about? I really dont want to pay full retail at Sephora if I can help it...

What is really annoying is that the general trackers usually just look at the raw price on the page but beauty sites love those weird tiered discounts like spend fifty get ten percent off or spend a hundred get twenty five off and my current extensions never alert me for those until I actually click on the cart and by then the good sets are usually sold out anyway. I even tried setting up some Google Alerts but my inbox is just a graveyard of irrelevant junk now and I keep missing the actual flash sales that only last like four hours. Im usually pretty good at finding a workaround or even just checking the dev tools to see how the site is pulling prices but these sites have gotten way more complex with their dynamic pricing lately.

It feels like there should be a Chrome extension that is specifically tuned for the beauty industry or maybe something that monitors the sale subdirectories of specific brand sites directly rather than just waiting for a price drop on a single SKU because checking twenty different tabs every morning is getting old. Does anyone know if there is a specialized extension that actually works for this kind of specific alert? I am tired of missing out on the good stuff because my generic tracker didnt ping me...

I keep seeing people on TikTok talking about these chrome extensions that just magically find coupons for you when you're at the checkout page? I'm sorry if this is a really dumb question but I literally don't even know what that means or how to put it on my computer. Is it like a separate app or does it just live inside the internet bar? I'm so confused lol but I really want to save some money so I can maybe afford a new lipstick too. I tried looking at the google store thingy but there are like a million options and I'm scared of downloading something that will break my laptop or steal my info.

Does anyone know which one is the absolute best for makeup sites like Ulta or Sephora? Like which one actually works and isn't just a scam...

like how much do i even have to spend to make that 110 dollars worth it? i live by myself in a tiny apartment so im not buying for a huge family or anything. mostly just need coffee and paper towels and maybe those big rotisserie chickens everyone talks about. i keep staring at the screen and i dont want to waste money because my budget is pretty tight right now after the move. i guess i might buy a vacuum or something soon but thats about it for big stuff. i dont want to pay for something i dont use.

also they said something about free shipping or getting to go in earlier in the morning? i dont even wake up early so maybe that part is useless for me. sorry if this is a dumb question but i feel like there is a catch somewhere or maybe im just not seeing the big picture. does anyone actually see those savings add up over a whole year or is it just a way for them to get more money from you up front? im trying to figure out if i should just stick to the cheap one or if the plus one actually pays for itself like they claim. it feels like a lot of money to drop at once if im not gonna use the perks and i dont really understand how the cash back thing works or if it just comes back as a gift card or what...
