To clarify regarding the exclusion for Sephora Flash, you can USE your Sephora Flash subscription during this event, but you just can't PURCHASE Sephora Flash during this event and receive the 20% discount.
I hope this helps answer any questions you may have about this event, and remember that since you can use this discount at Sephora Inside JCPenney stores, it's a great time to pick up those SJCP-exclusive Sephora Favorites sets I blogged about HERE and HERE.
I was just coming to your site to tell you about this news but you're way ahead of the game!! Thanks for all the great info!
ReplyDeleteAaaaah, thank you so much! And thank you for coming here to share--I so appreciate that! xo
Deleteshoot, and there's no mini sample things in the tote bag?!
ReplyDeleteNope, the minis are THIS week. :)
DeleteI have no idea, but I REALLY hope so! If/when I find out, I will post here immediately.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the info! Does anyone know what time the online store is open for discount? Will it be 3:am EST or midnight?
ReplyDeleteSephora gave reward cards last year in December, so if they do it again this year we'll have to wait :(
ReplyDeleteThanks so much G!
ReplyDeleteQuestion -- I'm pretty close to vib status. If I make a purchase online and get over the limit, do you think my I could then qualify for the vib discount next week? I don't have flash (but this may be the incentive I need to get it!).
Nope, you had to qualify by Nov. 1 according to an email I got.
DeleteI JUST became a VIB today. I wonder if I will be eligible.
ReplyDeleteI do not see why you would not be eligible, if you're looking for something special test out the codes. :)
DeleteFrom what I understand, the cutoff was Nov. 1.
DeleteAnyone else a little annoyed at the lack of love for BIs? Having a sale only twice a year and excluding a portion of customers comes off as a little stingy to me. I guess the thinking behind it is that those who have the VIB/VIB rouge memberships have earned it.
ReplyDeleteNo I think the thinking is to get people to spend more to attain VIB status so they can get the discount. I'm pretty unhappy that Sephora went this route.
DeleteNothing for BIs? Boo! I was going to start planning what I wanted to get.
ReplyDeleteSo I heard that if you made a large enough purchase to get into being a VIB then you can also use the discount, has anyone else heard that or is it just speculation? I will update y'all when I go to Sephora, I am literally $42 away from VIB status, so it is irritating that there is nothing for the BI status as well, especially since a large portion of the members are in this level and it would be more encouraging.
ReplyDeleteI think the cutoff was Nov. 1, but you can try.
DeleteAs per sephora policy, you would not be eligible for the vib discount until after you make a purchase to get you into that tier. Granted ya never know what a manager will do to make money, maybe they'll give the okay anyway?
ReplyDeleteAaahhh the 13th can't come quickly enough! I've been spending way too much time trying to decide what I want. All of the things!
ReplyDeleteThis my first year as a VIB. Wish I would've known about this sale before making an online order last week. :-P
ReplyDeleteI did get $15 back o the order because the perfume rollerball I ordered was completely empty. Kudos to Sephora for how quickly and easily I was able to get a refund.
Can you get a tote at Sephora in jc penny??
ReplyDeleteQuick question for any of you that may know I moved up to vib rough yesterday instore forgetting about the vib 20% event going on from the 13th. But because the rough event is going on now do get 20% off now or do I have to wait till the 13th many thanks
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone know if you can still bring a friend shopping with you in store and they can also use your VIB discount?
ReplyDeleteWill there be an online code for friends of VIB members to use?
ReplyDeleteYou must be logged into a a VIB account on sephora.com to be able to use the VIB20 code this weekend. It will not work if you are logged into a BI or VIB Rouge account. Since the code can be used more than once, hopefully you can find a friend who is VIB to let you purchase through their account.
ReplyDeleteI was wondering what Sephora does for Black Friday or Cyber Monday, any ideas?
ReplyDeleteI just achieved VIB status tonight and was able to immediately do another order using the code and hot 20% off!
ReplyDeleteThe information about only receiving the discount on your designated weekend is false. I'm Rouge, made a purchase on the 13th and still received 20% off.
ReplyDelete2 days was not enough time. I went on Sunday because I was on vacation and I asked the saleswoman and she told me it was all week. I got a couple samples of foundations to try. I went today to buy it and I see the sale is over. Boooo Hooo.
