nlb1050 Posted June 30, 2006 #1 Share Posted June 30, 2006 Found this bag: http://search.ebay.com/friendship-makeup-bag_W0QQfkrZ1QQfromZR8 Even though I do not use Bare Essentials I had to get one anyway. Some are selling just the bag and others have some of the make up with it. I bought one without the make up. I know that I don't post on this forum much but do read every day. And I must say that I have learned a lot. Especially about different places to get nice plus size clothes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JanineM Posted June 30, 2006 #3 Share Posted June 30, 2006 Not that I need another cosmetics case, but I DO have some money in my Paypal account. Hmmmmmmmm. Thanks for the tip! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvery Seas Cruiser Posted June 30, 2006 #4 Share Posted June 30, 2006 Those bags are so cute with the cruise ship design. I've never bought anything on E-Bay and don't even know how to go about it, but those bags tempt me...they surely do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nlb1050 Posted July 1, 2006 Author #5 Share Posted July 1, 2006 Heavy surf, very easy to buy on ebay and really once you do it can become a habit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kat_in_Texas Posted July 1, 2006 #6 Share Posted July 1, 2006 HeavySurf ~ Oh I so agree with Nancy ... once you make an Ebay purchase, you'll be back for more!!! It's an addiction for me ... wonder if there's an Ebay-er's Anonymous?!? :p In fact I already snatched up one of these bags. Too cute! I paid less than $10 including shipping. Not a bad deal for a makeup bag ... I've paid more at Wal-Mart! Happy Shopping, everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bethwte Posted July 1, 2006 #7 Share Posted July 1, 2006 *Sigh* WHY did I read this? I have 3 makeup bags already, and now I need this one too! You're evil, so very evil! Seriously though, thanks! It's so cute, and what a great price! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annieeee Posted July 1, 2006 #8 Share Posted July 1, 2006 Oh Lordy, I do not even wear makeup, of course could put skin care stuff in it. Dam, and I have never bought anything online either, but this is just too cute to pass up. Thanks. You all may have created an ebay monster :) Annieeee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nlb1050 Posted July 1, 2006 Author #9 Share Posted July 1, 2006 I'm actually thinking of using this as a substitute purse on my cruise instead of for cosmetics, since I don't take many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zotzer Posted July 1, 2006 #10 Share Posted July 1, 2006 Ahhh, this thread inspired me to go look for something. Any of you with daughters or granddaughters who like to cruise will LOVE this! My mother bought one for my niece last year, and she was SUCH a hit in this adorable Lilly dress!!! So cool to see they have a few on eBay!!

POTO Phanatic Posted July 2, 2006 #11 Share Posted July 2, 2006 Awwww that bag is toooo cute!!!! I'm going to just have to get me one!!! shucky darn! Hopefully I'll get it before my first cruise on 7/14 :D Thanks for the link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nlb1050 Posted July 8, 2006 Author #12 Share Posted July 8, 2006 Just received mine today and have decided that I will use it as a purse, mainly in my large tote when shopping in port. It will be so much easier to find my wallet and so much less of a chance of losing. Even big enough to use during the sea days to hold my book, seapass etc. Yet still not too big.

cruiserjanet Posted July 9, 2006 #13 Share Posted July 9, 2006 Great bag. I got mine a few weeks ago. I'm a Bare Escentuals girl. Best makeup ever. I've even gotten 5 of my friends on it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robthens Posted July 9, 2006 #14 Share Posted July 9, 2006 First it was the "Spanx" and now the Bare Essentials bag. I didn't know I had to have these until I read this thread. LOL I went on ebay for both. I got so carried away when I wasn't winning my bids on the Bare Essentials bag that I started bidding on several actions. What do you know, I'm not the proud owner of 2 bags. They are as cute as can be and hold a lot of cosmetics! Thanks for the tip. Jacque Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
letsgoplaces Posted July 10, 2006 #15 Share Posted July 10, 2006 Thank you so much for this post. We are going on a 10 day cruise with several members of our family and for some it will be there first cruise ever. we are planning an "excursion party" in 3 weeks where we all get together and present our finds for excursions....best deals and details on what we think we would be fun. I wanted to give the women in our group a little gift before we went and this little bad is PERFECT. I thought I would fill it with bonine , travel alarm clocks as well as the small size goodies like foot scrubs and lotions...... so I just bought SIX of these bags on Ebay and want to thank you for posting this info as I never would have found these bags myself! I love this website as I have learned so so much from all of you. Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bettyboop66 Posted July 10, 2006 #16 Share Posted July 10, 2006 What a cute bag. I saw it, bid on it, won it, and now I'm going back for more. Thanks for the tip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redsoxfan56 Posted July 12, 2006 #20 Share Posted July 12, 2006 Thanks for starting this thread...got mine, too! Had used restraint and not ordered the TSV on QVC a few weeks ago...loved the bag but was all set on BE at the time.....never thought to look on Ebay for just the bag! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
letsgoplaces Posted August 20, 2006 #21 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Just an update on this bag. I ended up having the "cruise excursion" party and presented the gals going on our trip with this bag, full of little goodies they can use and it was a hit. No-one had seen the bag before and they all just loved it. I have bought several more on Ebay to keep as gift bags for future cruises. Again thanks to the OP for sharing this find with us!
