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. |
