This all begins at David’s Bridal, I walk in with my mom and best friend to try on some dresses and they tell me I must “register” ok fine I fill out the post card and they say I have to write my phone down…something I am normally opposed to doing. I ask why? they say its so they can call me if my dress goes on sale or to schedule fittings etc… ok I caved. Mistake!
I get a call a week or 2 later from a woman claiming my name was drawn and I had won a complimentary “pampering night” I asked how? she said when I registered at DB I was put in a drawing etc… me and my bridal party and mom were invited to partake in a night of pampering. She said she’d have girls there to give us facials and do our makeup and show us virtual hairstyles… I asked again, no strings? she said just bring yourself and a smile!
Ok so I got excited thinking I had actually won something for once, we all show up at the hotel she told us to meet her at and we walk into a room with long tables and nothing like I had imagined. There was a little piece of cardboard with a mirror on it and droplets of lotions, scrubs and lip gloss.
To my horror I discovered I had been scammed into attending a Mary Kay presentation! we even had to do our own makeup, there was no pampering just a shoddy represention of thier crap and then they tried to sell it to us. I should have known better, my mom told me so.
How can they get away with this, how can they use DB’s name lke this and lie to get people in a room to try and but thier shit? If they think they have heard the last from me they are sadly mistaken. I will be taking this up with davids bridal first and then MaryKay crap makeup next.
How dare they?!! someone is going to pay for my embarrasment, for dragging my loved ones into thier lies, for tricking me into bringing my friends and family to something I would have never dreamed of doing if they had told me the truth. I had people driving 30-40 minutes from thier homes in the cld for this and it was a complete and total MISREPRESENTATION!
Heads will roll.
updates to follow.
