Interesting findings at Pay/Half !!
Friday, April 06, 2012Hi guys, today I stopped by "Pay-Half". I was browsing around the store and found the beauty/makeup section. I was surprised to find E.L.F Cosmetics in the store! So I was browsing, and looking around and noticed some surprising stuff...now before I start to talk about that, let me talk about the products they had.
| E.l.f nail polish sets, eyeshadow sets, and more!! |
| E.l.f eyelid primers, mascaras, shimmer sticks... |
I also picked some stuff up (stuff I was looking into buying in the future). I looked at the prices and was shocked. I saw products that I know retail for $1 priced for $1.25 and the ones for $3 up for $3.25. Now I know I don't work for e.l.f, but why the prices were boosted I don't know. I took pictures of two products and their price tags. Also the store put another barcode and price over the regular barcode, just so they can overprice them.
| Makeup Remover Cleansing Wipes, and The "Glitter Eye" Beauty Book (The wipes actually had a pretty sturdy and built feel to them) |

| The wipes (to the left) are priced at $3, but were boosted to $3.99 || The eyeshadow book (to the right) is priced at $5 (or 3 books for $10 on occasion) is boosted to $5.99 |
I can see the pay-half needs their commission, but at the same time. If I go to Kmart and Target and find E.L.F Cosmetics for the normal price stated online, I should find it in pay-half. Also, these "boosted prices might not be really expensive, but if you are a person that has tried e.l.f because of their amazing low prices, and great quality products; these price boosts can be annoying and surprising when you usually pay $1, $3, or $5.
| In this bucket, was their mineral products. |
