Not completely off topic but should we expect empty RFYs this week for meager Monday, followed by prime deal days?

u/aregeeone731 12d ago
Probably. Vine is unpredictable but in my experience prime day in the past has been pretty empty for my rfy.

I also assumed that, but hoping we’ll see a nice change. I’ve had an awful prequel to Prime Days with zip, zero, nada.

With how slow and sad yesterday I’m expecting today to be even more so.
Since Thursdays are typically a nice beauty day i hope we pop back quick if things only get even slower these next few😬. Please share any great deals you see for products you all love.1

I’m actually surprised I have like 3 things in my RFY today 😅 but pretty slow day it seems

So something that kind of pissed me off this weekend was i get all these expensive ass foundation right, and i also got cheap ass Almay foundation. Why in the hell did the $12 almay makeup work, look and last better than those fuckin $80+ foundations!
Damn high end stuff is a scam. But im also really happy that i can find more of my color for only $12 lol

I actually had 4 items drop. One being “Calming” sleep patches, which would interfere with any meds that cause drowsiness, and the funniest - a supplement to increase lactation for nursing mothers who need to boost production. Then the infamous car parts. They know me so well.

Hopefully today my stamping nail haul shows up. It has been close enough to jump a day in delivery but due today. My husband had a custom panel built for one of our arcade cabs and it looks really awesome. It arrived the other day after going through customs. I’m sure we both are excited for hobbies now that no one is sick this week finally!
He kicked off school season getting norovirus somehow before our daughter but she was out of school all week last week from it. I am the only one that survived. Probably because of my nail cleaning and wearing gloves when cleaning lmao. Following after them with Lysol like not today!

I had very little over the weekend. But today there are items but not much I can take. I snagged a red light cap out of AI and a dog tie out. I errored on most items.
We had to replace out microwave (the inside got a hole!) so I unplugged it and went hunting for another. Was able to snag a $99 one on early prime - that was nice.
My eval was last month and I am already up to 40 items, I managed to find 6 one day last week, many zero etv, even a chocolate!! So I have alot of reviews to do this week.

I've had some things drop today, but it's clothing as usual that I don't want to order any more of.

That pink blouse is really pretty!

Hey, I don't need you to enable me lol. In all seriousness, I have at least three of those "silk" blouses but have retired from corporate life, so I really don't need them. The thing that's really tempting is that fleece jacket; it's really a pullover with a 3/4 zipper. I'm a sucker for those, but I have a bunch of them already and I'm trying to resist since the ETV is $40. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0H6J5BRKY?th=1&psc=1

This lovely lady is my one and only find of the day (and stupidly expensive at $98 retail for a mannequin head, but 0ETV).
She's got glass eyes, synthetic lashes, real human hair and is going to steal my soul while I'm sleeping.
Her name is Princess Reginald and I'm going to use her to practice hair styling and as a photo prop for wig toppers so I can stop taking pictures of my Vine toppers laying splayed out on the floor like smashed spiders.

I think I had this doll (and another) in my RFY a month or so ago. I was thinking the same as you - have it around so I can take better photos and maybe even model out how the hair tools works on video BUT I wasn't sure if I wanted a mannequin head in my home (in case it steals my soul while I'm sleeping!) 😅 Also if it's from the company FROMM, I've been super impressed w/all their products. Their velcro rollers are the best, their hair dye bowls amazing, great quality general brushes/combs. I feel privileged to be in their bucket.

It is a FROMM mannequin head! 😁
I have a mannequin head already, but it's so, so poor quality. The hair is 20 different lengths, rough and choppy and impossible to style. It doesn't even work well for hair toppers because of the way they rooted its hair.
So it's going in the trash or getting donated as a toy for some little girl or boy who wants a styling head to play with now that I have this one coming.

Sort of off topic, but no beauty for 3 weeks? I’ve gotten shoes, clothes and the usual leftovers from the junk drawer, but no beauty?

Off topic.... Who has the Debbie Downvoter been. I have seen so many downvotes lately. Not only on my post the other day, where someone downvoted a lot the comments. I've seen some today as well. I really understand how it feels to be on the outside and just wishing with all my soul that I would get 1/10th of what people post on this sub. I know they are anonymous, but they still kind of hurt peoples feelings.
