Ulta - $5 off + FREE Tote

I went to Ulta today to pick up the Urban Decay 24/7 eyeliner. When I went to check out she asked me if I wanted $5 off, a free faux croc tote *really cute* (available in silver, red, or black), and two free months of InStyle magazine, and of course I said "yes". The only catch is that after the two months - if you don't cancel- InStyle will charge you for a subscription. So I ended up getting my eyeliner for $11! :) I will try to post pictures later; I am currently rushing to get to work. :)
