oh! You work there?!? Can you explain the rewards? Ok, so when you open a card, the day you open it, if you spend $100 you get a $20 note. For each dollar you spend you get 2 points. Reach 2000 points and you get a $20 note. (there are different spending levels on the website, if you spend more you get more in tailoring per year, and other perks, I think for most average people, you will probably stick around tier one which is $1999 spent at Nordy's per year) See here: shop.nordstrom.com/c/rewards-benefitsOne benefit you get for example is being able to shop the anniversary sale earlier. Nordstrom and the Rack do events for double and triple points. So on double points days you are earning 4 points per dollar spent, triple points=6 points per dollar spent. So, you can earn points a lot faster and get those notes a lot faster. For Tier one spenders , you get one personal triple points day per year. So let's say you are doing a lot of damage at Nordstrom one day, you can tell your cashier that you want today to be your personal triple points day (This is also given as an option at checkout online- which reminds me dammit I forgot to do that for my big suit purchase yesterday -_-) Basically you earn triple points for that entire day, for any purchases at the store, online, at the Rack, etc. I think the main benefit is the points to earn little notes here and there. The tailoring thing came in handy too, especially if you ever have a special event or anything like that. thank you! So I already had something on my account yo have a triple points day. I may do that during this anniversary sale as I have about $200 on my wish list so far... In makeup. I need to get a pair of shoes too. So it's better to shop on the double points days.... I get it now. Points = money.

Now I really wish I got the OH GWP! But I couldn't get the $15 to actually come off the total (even though it showed in my cart). Oh well, they do big GWPs every once in awhile. Next time!! Same on both counts.

I get it now. Points = money. I am still trying to figure out how points work like...let's say Nordstrom is doing double points for everything (4 pts per dollar) and on top of that you make it your triple points day. I read in fine print that points max out at 10 per dollar. So I was wondering how that would work during double points if I make it my triple points day on one of those days (if it would be the base 2 points x 2 for double points event x 3 for my personal triple points=12 points per dollar then rounded down to 10 because that is the cap). If that makes sense at all. Of course now I have nothing to buy....ugh I spent $200+ on that suit. That would a been a ton of points if I remembered to make it my triple points day!!!

hackneyflwww.britishbeautyblogger.com/2014/06/charlotte-tilbury-matte-revolution-lipsticks.htmlCharlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution lipsticks. So pretty! Also, I am glad I bought that Givenchy palette. Seems legit, I just sanitized the shit out of it with alcohol lol. Everything lines up even the swatches of the shades. Glad I bought it for $40!! also, are you still using that becca matte primer? Whatever it is called? I had a foil sample and holy moly I felt it sucking the moisture out of my face. But it kept me super matte. I am gonna try it at work tomorrow when I really sweat and see how it performs! Ohhhhhhhhhhhh pretty! Love them! Glad the Givenchy seems legit, I looked it up and is very pretty. Yes, still using the becca primer! I find it a lot better than the hourglass one. It holds up better than any primer that I have used so far considering my oily t-zone and the FL humidity!!!

On a(nother) side note - I found a cat toy subscription box! It came with a little bow tie last month and a catnip taco! I think my kitties would enjoy this I might have to try it out for a month or two - for the kitties

Here is the thought .... Everyone would need to update their no-buy to be very specific! We can set up a paypal account and each time someone FALLS off they will need to put 3.00 into paypal account. Come 12/31/2013 we will take the money buy sephora GCs (split evenly to all) and give to all members! The rules would however need to be solid also: Everyone has to be HONEST, Only ACTIVE MEMBERS can particpate(meaning you must post at least 10 times a month) these are just a few I can think of right now!If we collect very little money (but with all the wagon falling I don't see this as an issue but if money low we can extend the GC buying to the spring sale. This is just a thought! Please note that this would be only be available to 'current' active members and any newbies would have to be voted on to join! Anyone think this would work?

On second thought, I don't like consequences.
