A HUGE thanks to everyone who has emailed/tweeted/commented about receiving their Target Beauty Bags! If you don't know what I'm talking about, Target periodically offers FREE beauty bags filled with samples and coupons and all you have to do to get one is sign up on their website. Sadly, you can no longer sign up for this one, but SO many of you did sign up when I posted about it (yay!) so I thought you'd like to know what some readers are receiving.
If you have received your Target Beauty Bag, please leave a comment and let us know what you got! Some items tend to vary from person to person, but for the most part everyone seems to be getting roughly the same things (I haven't gotten mine yet--boo!). This time around, the samples are very hair-care-centric. The bag they offered in the Spring seemed a bit more well-rounded, but hey, they're FREE so who's complaining?
Here's a pic submitted my reader Aneela:

The only bummer about these coupons is that Corynn said they all expire on 11/15. Hopefully we'll all get our bags in time to actually use them.
Another HUGE thanks to Aneela, Sarah, Corynn and everyone else who took the time to let me know they got their bags. I'm sorry I couldn't run all of your pics and info, but hopefully this is a good representation of what everyone got.
Have you received YOUR Target Beauty Bag yet? If so, what did you get?
If it wasn't for you I wouldn't have known to sign up! Thanks for the heads up. I really enjoyed the Garnier Fructis samples...my hair is softer after using them.
ReplyDeleteI still haven't received mine either! I think it's us California girls ;)
ReplyDelete♥
I got the same items Ameela did, happy just the same.. wonder why no Aveeno, even the trial size is expensive, My sis is expecting another in a different zip code, lets see whats she gets
ReplyDeleteStill waiting on mine as well.
ReplyDeleteI wish I'd gotten that Aveeno bottle! I got everything else, but I would have gladly traded all the shampoos for the Aveeno.
ReplyDeleteGot mines, nice goodies but the lil bag itself is just a steal. FYI it was my mini clutch today and it just fit my cards and phone well... lol
ReplyDeleteThank YOU Gianna! You're the one who's filling us in on great offers like these! I'm kinda bummed I didn't get the Aveeno lotion, though.
ReplyDeleteI got mine today. Happy I got it, but a little disappointed it was so packed with shampoo. It was free though so can't really complain about that. I do love the bag though! Super cute. I didn't get the Aveeno though..wish I would have!
ReplyDeleteI got my bag last week. I love the makeup bag! I can't believe it was free it is so pretty. I fell instantly in love with the Ponds Evening Soothe Towelettes. They smell amazing!
ReplyDeleteI got mine today. The package was really beat up and open on one end, but thankfully everything was still intact. I got the same samples Aneela got. Gonna try the John Frieda and L'Oreal samples tonight!
ReplyDeleteI got a sample of the Youth Code via L'Oreal's Facebook wall and HATE it. It's nothing but silicone! I was absolutely disappointed with it.
ReplyDeleteStill waiting for my own bag from Target though, that bag is cute. I still have the previous bag they gave out a few months ago. When I see samples like that plus the bag I wonder WHY I pay $10 to $15 a month for sample products I'm not happy with when so many companies give out tons of freebies.
I'm in NorCal, and no bag here. I kept getting errors when trying to sign up, so I'm not sure I'll get one at all.
ReplyDeleteI signed up when you posted about it, but i dont think it went through for me since i havent gotten one in the mail. Oh well :/
ReplyDeleteGlad that I got the lotions haha! Hope everyone who got their names in receive theirs soon! I love the Pond's Towelletes :)
ReplyDeleteI got everything but the Aveeno. The bag is the best part. I look forward to trying the Ponds and Burt's Bees stuff. A little disappointed about all the hair samples that may not work for my hair. But it was free.
ReplyDeleteThanks Giana :) Got my bag, got everything except the Aveeno. The bag is so cute.
ReplyDeleteI haven't gotten mine yet :( hopefully it will come soon.
ReplyDeleteAt first when I bought the Full Repair poo/conditioner I really liked the shampoo and wasn't crazy about the conditioner.. then after I started using it something happened... it morphed into a combo that I really liked! Liked as in I will most def buy this duo again.
I don't know what changed but something did and my hair looked fantab.
I got mine, it was the same except the aveeno... I would have loved that, since I already use it! lol
ReplyDeleteI agree with the others that the bag is the best part! I had been wanting to try the Pond's towelettes & I really liked them! They removed my eye makeup well & my skin felt great afterwards! I really love your blog!
ReplyDeleteWho doesn't love free samples? And Target? Woohoo! Too bad I didn't get the Aveeno.
ReplyDeleteI spy a curious kitty, please show all of kitty. :)
Mine came yesterday. I'm in Indiana. It had everything but the Aveeno lotion.
ReplyDeleteMine came in yesterday. My boyfriend brought it in and was jealous! lol... I'm in Indiana too....
ReplyDeleteStill haven't gotten mine but maybe it will come this week? I hope I hope I hope :)
ReplyDelete(I'm in Chicago)
I got mine today (I'm in Ohio!) And I got everything but the Aveeno lotion.
ReplyDeleteI haven't gotten mine yet (I'm in Michigan) but it appears to be going west to east. Well, anyway, thank you so much for letting us know about great deals like this!
ReplyDeleteI got mine Friday and I got all that was pictured above except the Aveeno lotion. And yes, the bag was super cute this time!
ReplyDelete- Thanks to yuh I also got mine. I would have never known. Hopefully, I'll be doing a blog podt on it soon.
ReplyDeleteGot mine today!!! Got everything but the aveeno lotion.
ReplyDeleteKind of funny/odd/weird but my mom who lives right down the street didn't get hers, lol. Hopefully it went through for hers though, last time I got yelled at for not signing her up for one so I tried to do that this time... lol.
(From Michigan, btw)
I wonder if the one person getting Aveeno was a mistake, since nobody else has gotten one so far.
ReplyDeleteI got my bag some time ago and it contained the Aveeno sample. Maybe people who signed up early got the Aveeno sample? And I'm in Florida btw
ReplyDeleteI received this today! yaay My kit has everything including the coupons. Thanks for posting about this, I'm delighted to have gotten in on this due to your post Really curious about the Loreal Youth Code, everything looks nice!
ReplyDeleteCorrection- I didnt receive the bottle of Aveeno, did get everything else though. Am loving the pretty make up bag also! :)
ReplyDeleteI received mine today (Los Angeles) and I didn't receive the bottle of Aveeno nor the Burt's Bees.But I'm still excited.
ReplyDeleteI received mine today. No Burts Bees or bottle of Aveeno. And less than 2 weeks to use the coupoons. Oh well. The samples are nice though. I know where I'm shopping this weekend.
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting about the sign up. I wouldn't have known about it otherwise.
I got mine the day after I posted my comment - I got everything pictured above!
ReplyDeleteI received my bag today 11/7/2011, but without the Aveeno and Burt's Bees. Very cute bag! I live in California.
ReplyDeleteI finally received my beauty bag but was so bummed out that the coupons had already expired! The bag is super cute and I love the fact that it came with the Ponds towelettes sample, but the coupons still made me sad.
