Wow, I had no idea they had stuff like that.

[NachoProblem]

Not really. I think that's why no one is going to BigLots expecting to find Philosophy makeup.

As far as other philosophy stuff in stock, my store had: Luminescence highlighter (no idea what that was, but it sounded very sparkly), tan/brown eyeshadow duo, tinted moisturizer (but the only color left was dark brown), more single pots of lip gloss, trio of blush, single thing of blush, shimmer powder (two different versions), and... uh... some other stuff that I'm forgetting. I started to load up because $3 apiece is a steal, but I ended up sticking to the things I know I'll use. I might change my mind when I start thinking about it again tomorrow. ;D

Oh, also? From reading about this deal stores are putting them in random parts of the store. Mine was on an endcap with the summer stuff. Super random spot for it to be in.

I think I'm going to have to check this out this weekend.

The Big Lots I checked out was pretty picked over. They said they got a lot in, but all they have left are single cream blushes in two different colors, small eyeshadow duos (all the same color), and single lipglosses all in the same color. Oh, and little brushes. I got one of everything they had (well, I actually got two of the exact same shadow duo).

Two cream blushes on top, lip gloss on bottom right, eyeshadow duo on bottom left.

Mine didn't have any brushes, but I did remember that they had bronzer as well. Frankly, I don't think anyone shops our BigLots, and it was in a weird spot.

I live in the middle of nowehere. People here have no idea what Philosophy is in any sense of the word, much less as a product. I think I'll be able to do pretty well tomorrow.

[jacquie]

Gah. I still need to get in to Big Lots to check if we have anything. Our TJ Maxx never has any high-end clothing brands (not that the two store are connected) so I'm wondering if our BL would carry the higher end stuff in our area?

LOL!

Yeah, someone in the Facebook group had an insane haul with large palettes of stuff, and she said that her Big Lots is in a bad part of town. I'm wondering if I go to one in the ghetto or in a more rural area, if they will have more. We're going to my parent's mountain cabin tomorrow, so I need to check Big Lots locations and see if we'll pass one in a more remote area.

It's bad here. Like backwards bad. Hillary visited our HS on the campaign trail and while she was there a red Dodge Ram circled the block the entire time with a 7 foot tall papier-mache Bill wearing black shoes and socks, a wide open trench coat, and stars & stripes boxers. It drove around the county for the rest of the day. I didn't know whether to be horrified or take pictures. How do I get into the FB group?

[pixy0stix]

I wish mine had palettes.

GoDawgs, which Big Lots did you end up going to?

We were over by Town Center Mall to get Mother's Day gifts for our moms, so we went to the one off of Canton Rd, not far from the intersection with East Piedmont. My husband thought I was totally nuts when I looked at Yelp on my phone to find a nearby Big Lots, and said it couldn't wait because I had to get to the Philosophy products I learned about on a blog. He waited in the car, lol.

FCG you would need to "friend" someone in the FB group and they can invite you, since its a private group.

[KimDan]

I went this afternoon and was able to find a few things, I will pip later once I figure out how. The store I went to actually had it in the cosmetic section.
