11/1/13 Fri Sephora grand opening with giftcard giveaways!

Halloween might just have passed, but looks like there can still be some more trick-or-treating left to do.
Sephora is opening a new store on Friday, November 1st! The first 100 on the line get giftcards ranging from $10 to $1000. There will also be makeup tutorials, DJs and giveaways. The store will open starting at 8am.

Can't make it on Friday? Fear not, the festivities repeat again on Saturday starting at 9am, as well as workshops on color palettes by Katherine Bernhardt from 11am-3pm and how to make original collaged artwork by artist Hisham Bharoocha from 4pm-8pm.

Original artwork from five Brooklyn-based artists, including Mickalene Thomas and Keegan McHargue, will be on display throughout the store (watch the below video to learn more).

YouTube video link!

The company is also giving away a tote bag designed specifically for Sephora Brooklyn featuring artwork by illustrator Gary Panter. BK Creatives will be running the DJ set, and Morris Kitchen will be providing snack and coffee to customers, rounding out the collection of Brooklyn businesses and artists.

The new Sephora is located at 210 Joralemon Street, in BK, thankfully not too down south! ;)

Hope you have a beautiful time!

Ends 11/1/13 Fri Club monaco sample sale, additional reductions!

Don't forget to snag your FREE Halloween treats! :)

If you haven't snagged your FREE Halloween sweet treats for adults, get on it! For more details about how to get them, please read my other post here. And make sure you sign up by tonight! ;)

This post will cover the goodies that are snaggable. They are all within walking distance from the  F/J/M line at the Delancey/Essex Street stop.

1. Melt Ice Cream Sandwiches, 132 Orchard Street, the giveaways are mini ice sandwiches consisting of peach ice cream sandwiched between two cookies. They come in a rotation of flavors, check site for deets.

They're worth $2.50 a pop. The large ones are $4. They don't melt all over you, though you might want to let it thaw a bit before taking a bite.

2. Pop Karma, 95 Orchard Street, all natural gourmet organic popcorn that comes in both classic and seasonal flavors and popped fresh daily. You can sample them before you make up your mind.

I recommend eating them fresh when it comes out pipping warm from the oven because when it cools it loses its crunchiness. Ie. Like it got soaked in the rain.

Seasonal flavors include my fav flavor, the Kyoto mix (miso+seaweed), the Pumpkin Spice Caramel (sweet tasting) and Porcini Cheddar (salty)

The smallest bag size called Karma Shot is either $2 or $2.25, the latter price applies to the Kyoto mix and Pumpkin Spice flavors.

3. Tache Artisan Chocolate - 254 Broome Street, the chocolates are handmade from the finest ingredients without artificial colorings, flavorings, or additives. They are so definitely too pretty to eat! The chocolate shop/lounge also has chocolate making classes for you to learn and make your own chocolates to take home!

Each chocolate masterpiece would normally cost $2.50 a piece and the glitter on it is actually edible!

4. Last, but not least is the boozy cupcakes! They're a little bit bigger than Melissa's, but you can definitely taste the alcohol, but maybe not get drunk from them.

Prohibition Bakery - 9 Clinton Street
These mini cupcakes are not your ordinary minis, they are boozy!
Click the link for the menu,  which also includes virgin options, on a rotation basis. I suggest getting there earlier than later to get your flavor of choice!

$2/pop or 3 for $5

Yes, please eat responsibly!

Happy Halloween!

51% off NYC Uncubed, last day, or 50% off until event!

SAVE 51% OFF THE PRICE OF A TICKET TO UNCUBED!

This editorial is produced by Wakefield Media. If you enjoy reading this, subscribe here.

AND if the 51% off promo code below has expired, use this 50% off promo code instead: "TLVIP" at nyc.getuncubed.com.









A lot has changed since May 17th, 2013.
Edward Snowden went from mild-mannered NSA employee to international man of mystery. The Red Sox went from a last place team to World Series contender. Miley Cyrus appears to have lost her mind.
May 17 was also the last time New York got Uncubed. And in those six months, a lot has changed for us, too.
We’ve subjected the masses in Berlin and Boston to our traveling circus, established the Skill Track as part of the offerings, and lassoed a whole new round of colorful speakers.
Uncubed invades New York’s Metropolitan Pavilion on November 14. The classes kick the whole thing off; soak in the wisdom on ad sales and partnerships from Vice Media, on design from Etsy, and on dev topics from Spotify.
Then at 2pm, the games begin, with reps from more than 65 of New York’s hottest startups all looking to hire. To name a few: Stack Exchange, Tumblr, SoundCloud, Spotify, Booker, Simulmedia, Bounce Exchange, Shutterstock, TheLadders, Meetup, Fog Creek, REDI Technologies and 50onRed. (These fine companies will be fed by Cater2.me and IDA Ireland.)
Of course, if you’ve been to Uncubed before you’ll be expecting more. And it’s more you’ll get, including a massive lineup of discussions (including Lauren Leto from RapGenius and Texts From Last Night, Jon Oringer, the CEO of Shutterstock, and Patrick Moberg, the creator of Dots) made comfortable by Turnstone, the UKTI, and Party Headphones.
You’ll also find the American Airlines Paper Napkin Pitch, the art, Grady’s Cold Brew and the happy hour, brought to you by Tumblr and the NYC EDC.
You can get more information and buy tickets to Uncubed here. Use the coupon code WAKE51 when you check out, and you’ll save 51% off the ticket price. But act fast! This deal’s only good for the next twelve hours.
Now go forth (and ch- ch- ch- change).
Nitty Gritty:
181: # of days between our Spring ’13 NY Uncubed and our Fall ’13 event
181: Atomic number of an element temporarily called Unoctunium

Oct 25th Uniqlo Opens New Store at Atlantic Terminal BK and Pop-Up in Union Square!



Beginning mid-month, Uniqlo will open a pop-up store within the Union Square subway station. Located at the east end of the station, the temporary store will sell winter gear including the brand's $50 puffer jackets and HeatTech layers. Huge perk: every purchase earns a free $5 MetroCard. The pop up is open through Christmas.  

Also be on the lookout for the Atlantic Terminal's Uniqlo grand opening on the 25th for giveaways and deals.

Update: 10/24/13, the Uniqlo at Atlantic Terminal is opening at 10am tomorrow with Free limited edition tote bags, promotional items and special live performances. The celebrations continue throughout the weekend.

Update: 10/29/13, if you have been having trouble finding the Uniqlo popup above ground like I have, you just might need to go beneath the surface. The popup is actually in the east end of the Union Square location. See if you can find it!

The Other Banksy site

All good things must come to an end. For the entire month of October, Banksy has been using NYC as his canvas for his masterpieces, while updating us daily on what his creations are, along with recordings posted on his site: www.banksyny.com

Another site that shows the locations of his masterpieces and how much they're worth is this: (ie. If It was damaged)
http://www.stealbanksyny.com/#p=11

Metro.us also shows the locations of Banksy's masterpieces if you wanted to see them in person. Could be a fun walking tour for the weekend! :)

HEADSUP!

Just wanted you to know...

Sometimes my most recent posts do not appear on the first page of my blog when it is published. This is something for those who don't have access to my walls to be particularly aware of. I noticed that this usually happens when I draft up entries but don't publish immediately. Just a headups!

For those of you who are new to my blog, I have a calendar of cool events tab which displays and links to upcoming event postings in a monthly, weekly and agenda format, so you don't have to go crazy looking through the entries. If you're viewing my blog on a smartphone, you can easily access the calendar, by tapping on the "Home" button and a dropdown menu will show "contacts/social media" and " Calendar of cool events" selections.

If that doesn't work, you can choose the desktop view and either click on that tab at the top or scroll all the way down to the bottom of the blog for the calendar!

Enjoy!

EXPAND YOUR MIND AND YOUR ROLODEX

If you ever make it to the finals of “The Price Is Right”, there’s a distinct strategy to winning the Showcase. Always pass on the first set of prizes, typically a kitchenette set and new car, and bid on the second showcase – usually a series of exotic and wonderful trips.
This is the second showcase…
Mashable and Wakefield want to take you on an exclusive tour of New York’s most wanted workplaces. You’ll be whisked through glamorous New York City in a private Uber as you tour offices like Facebook, Tumblr, Spotify, Stack Overflow, and Mashable.
Not only that, you’ll also score VIP passes to our New York Uncubed event on November 14.
While other travel prizes will take you away to unfamiliar, often extreme, climates, you’ll never have to worry about packing the wrong clothes for our Grand Tour, because winners will never leave the island of Manhattan!
Worried about appeasing the natives? No worries – you’re already a native.
Get all the details and enter the contest here (all the usual caveats apply).
The sweepstakes closes on Sunday, so register now!
Now go forth (and brush up on your New Yawkese).

10/22 Tue 6-8pm Meet Victoria's Secret Angels Lily Aldridge and Lindsay Ellingson!

Super exciting news! We here at the Lexington Avenue Victoria’s Secret location are hosting VS angels Lily Aldridge and Lindsay Ellingson!

Sport Themed Photo Event:

Tuesday, October 22, 6-8 pm.

Get your photo taken with Lily and Lindsay! On-site uploading for Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram to instantly share!

VIP Access
** In order to be granted access to the VIP photo line a purchase of a VS sports bra must be made. This purchase is NON-REFUNDABLE. However, the purchase can be made throughout that day -not just during the event- and it would be best to get fitted and ask for advice on the type of sports bra that is best for you. Those coming to the event and not in the VIP line may not get a chance for a photo. The VIP line is guaranteed a photo but they generally block access to manage the line mid-event. For the best chance of taking a picture with the models, please arrive ASAP and secure your spot. That means someone who purchased a bra before the event and arrives at 7:15pm may not be able to get into the VIP line because there is a chance access will be halted.

Three things you've been doing for FREE, but should have been PAID to do - Get Gift Cards and Cash!

How often do you "Google" things, unlock your phone or just watch TV?  Well, if you've been doing all that already, you might as well get rewarded with gift cards and cash! Or if you'd like, donate it to one of your favorite charities.

Today, I share 3 things you've been doing for FREE, when you should have been paid to do it!  

Long story, short. 
Get rewarded by using the following: (Click through the links.)
1. Bing your way to some cha-chinga!
2. Locket in - swipe, swipe, swipe away!
3. Do the viggle - and VIGGLE it!

Long story, long, with details and lovely graphics:

Check out Bing Rewards here. Bing your way to some cha-chinga!


1. Instead of googling, try Bing's search engine.  Accumulate points for every search and redeem for gift cards like Starbucks, Sephora, Groupon or Amazon, get redbox credits to a free movie rental, enter to win a sweepstakes or donate to one of the listed charities, including "The Boys and Girls Club of America" and "Teach for America."  

One of my fav gift cards redeemable is the Tango Card! "What is that?" you say. The exact thought when I first heard of it.  Known as the "get exactly what you want" card, you have 3 options after ordering this card: 1. Pick from more choices of gift cards such as Target, Fandango or iTunes. 2. Donate to any of their listed charities or 3. Get a check - (Not sure if this is still an option, but worth checking out.)  Join @BingRewards!        
--> Check out Bing Rewards here. Bing your way to some cha-chinga!

Swipe some spare change into your pocket - swipe, swipe, swipe away! Locket in!















2.  Hmm...how many times a day would you say you unlock your phone? Well, if you have to do it anyway, let's swipe some change into your pocket.  Locket's the name of the Android app that pays you for unlocking your phone.  By downloading the app, you basically rent out your lock screen to brands.  With one swipe, you can either open the ad, or unlock your phone the way you always do.

Currently, they're having a Locket Swipestakes with a $300 daily prize - share this with friends - if they win, you win too!! =)    

Get money for doing pretty much nothing!



-->Swipe some spare change into your pocket - swipe, swipe, swipe away! Locket in!





If you like to watch TV, do the Viggle - I mean Viggle It! (Available for both iPhones and Androids)












3.  Are you starting to see the pattern here? When you watch television, simply open the Viggle app and let it listen to the show you're watching.  Once you're checked in, the app keeps track and rewards you points for watching.

There's also other fun interactive ways to earn points such as correctly answering trivia questions during the show, or selecting a basketball player that scores well throughout the game through MYGUY.

Rack up enough points? Then it's time to redeem it for a plethora of things, ranging from deals, sweepstakes, gift cards, viggle swiggle/swaggle (just  made that up! - can't believe these are actual words in the Urban dictionary.) giving back to charities to Kindles and even a boat cruise (At the rate I'm earning points, I probably won't be able to redeem that, until my kid is like 16 years old, assuming I had one today...) 

But have no fear, your first redemption won't take years.  In fact, my first took only about 2 months and I got a $25 Best Buy gift card! 
-->If you like to watch TV, do the Viggle - I mean Viggle It! (Available for both iPhones and Androids)

Sharing is caring! And don't forget to...
1. Bing your way to some cha-chinga!
2. Locket in - swipe, swipe, swipe away!
3. Do the viggle - and VIGGLE it!

Come back next time for more cool app recommendations! =)
