A message to new readers

I realize that new readers may not know this, so I wanted to briefly mention that every Saturday I post the Weekly Drugstore Makeup Sales (see top menu bar of this blog for the link), which is a summary of all the hot deals featured at the three major drugstore chains for the upcoming week. I also post a summary of the hot beauty deals at Ulta, Target and Kmart, but that's not what I'd like to address in this post.

I've noticed that I've been receiving lots of comments, tweets, Facebook comments and emails over the past month, with tips about sales that are going on at the drugstore. While I so VERY much appreciate your willingness and excitement to share these deals with all of us, I'd like to just clarify that SOME of the sales alerts I've been receiving have already been listed in the Weekly Drugstore Sales post for that week.

It always pains me to hear that someone didn't know about a good sale (such as the Revlon 40% off sale at Rite Aid that ends today), when I do my very best to make all of us aware of sales like this on Saturdays (the day before the sales begin). 

So to new readers, please be sure that you check the Weekly Drugstore Sales Post (located for your convenience on the top menu bar of this blog) before you take time out of your day to share a deal here. Please know that my goal for this post is to make sure YOU know about the sales the day before they start--I hate to hear that so many of you only find out about sales like this at the END of the week, when the information is there for you at the BEGINNING of the week!

PS: As I mention in my You Tell Me page (also accessible on the top menu bar of this blog), I do not approve comments about sales that I've already covered on this blog, because I don't want to clog up the comment stream with duplicate information. So please check to make sure I haven't already covered something before you leave a comment, otherwise your comment will not appear on that post.

PPS: If you're a new reader and would like more information about what I do here on Nouveau Cheap, you can always click the For New Readers tab on the upper menu bar of this blog. Thank you so much!
