It is true when people call this the mother of all sales. I called this the QUEEN of all sales!
I was too excited to sleep early so I stayed awake till 12am watching a Malay sitcom movie; Peluang Kedua. Maybe I had coffee earlier so I’m still not sleepy. Which is weird as normally no matter coffee or no coffee I’d be sleepy. Must be the anxiety as I spent the whole night worrying how the crowd would be, to double check if I have the invitation card ready etc etc.
The next day I woke up a 4am. I think I slept briefly at 1am and dreamt of ghost omg. Had a cup of coffee, bath, pat on some skin care, powder and I left my house 5am. I drove to the venue using Cheras way. That route will bring me directly to the hotel. I reached on my target time which is 5.30am. I thought the crowd would be acceptable but once I exited the lift, there it is. I heard the noisiness and I prayed the queue line wouldn’t be until the lift. As I turned in, I saw the queue line. I quickly called my partner that day who’s a reader’s sister (Chin Ching) and she’s also on the way. As I talk to her on the phone I tried to locate the ending of the line. I couldn’t see it. Then I spot it and quickly walked over. It wasn’t too bad. I was in the middle of second lane. My partner arrived and we chatted while waiting to go in. We were handed plastic bags around 6.30am. At the same time another guy is collecting the invitation card. We hoped they let us in around 7am but nothing happen. By the time 7.30am the queue line is up till the front door so we were let in. I think I finished shopping around 8.30am. But I make my second rounds, third, forth until I was bored and really really sure that I have nothing else to buy and I proceed to check out.
Here’s my haul of RM1,480. I grabbed so much lesser than 99% of the crowd there but yet the damage is huge. The purchase limit for each person is RM2,000. I’m gonna let go certain stuff in the set(s) so do look out for a blog sales!
Note: Selling off Zoom Lash mascara and the purple pigment.
MAC Fluidline Eye-Liner Gel & Pro Lash Set – RM50 – Mfg Date: July’2011 & July’2010
Doesn’t look a lot for RM1.5k huh. Did anyone went? Do share your haul!
Lastly I wanna thank Chin Ching for being a great warehouse sales partner and accompanying me at the queue line. Although we shop separately, we managed to catch up after check out. Thank you.

omg so cheapp the product you’ve purchased! 😀
Wow, drool!!! Good hauls 🙂 You’ve got good deals for EL serums, Illuminator is such a steal!
I know right. The main haul is EL serums.
I make a last round before checking out and saw Perfectionist CP+ and I told the girl I want it (I can’t reach to the table due to the crowd). She was so excited and said that I’m lucky that a lady decided to put this back on the table =)
Hehe lucky you 🙂 You now have the complete EL serum series I think, lol. Enjoy and many blissful good skin days ahead! Totally worth waking up early and looking zombified haha. Michael Kors is worth it too! Ahh, the wonders of sale 😉
Yes. Totally worth it.
Yes!! MAC are all so cheap. Kinda disappointed that nothing much at Origins
Gorgeous! I’m salivating over all the Estee Lauder skincare now..
Me too. EL skin care is great too
Awesome deal *0*
Suria Meriang Staff Sales is always awesome :). Hope I get tix for next year 🙂
only for invitation? how to get the invitation card? I dont mind go down KL to grab Estee Lauder products. ^-^
Yeap. Only by invitation as stated in the beginning of the post. Mine was given to me. Not sure how you can get it. Sorry
ya, hehe..maybe only regular customer will get it. hrmmm…
Try asking your BA next year haha
yea, will try it. =) hehe. tq
interested with mac brush set 🙂
Oh. I guess you have to wait for this year’s holiday collection 🙂
May I know does this sale opens to public? As I see it is named “…. Staff Sale”.
Yes but you will need a card to enter
Oh. How can I get the card? At the counter there or need someone (the staff) to give me the card?
I’ve no idea Yeong Mei. Maybe you can try to ask your close Estee Lauder BA next time? Just try your luck. If you are their regular, I believe it shouldn’t be any problem getting a pass.
I see. Thanks!
Not idea when is the next sales. Try to ask your Estee Lauder BA ok? 😀
