Having fun in the Walgreen’s beauty department is not just restricted to us non-celebrities. Popular daytime talk show host Bonnie Hunt devoted an entire segment of her show to her love of shopping at Walgreens for her cosmetics. “You know that I talk about going to Walgreens all the time to get my makeup…And I’ve been doing that since I was a teenager…And I still go there, I still get my CoverGirl and stuff”.

On the show she took her friend Holly with her flip video so she could see how fun it was to shop at Walgreens, and they happened to go on their Saturdate weekend, which is a Saturday that Walgreens devotes every month to beauty. Beauty advisors teach customers about products and treat them to samples and coupons. The video was hilarious and Sally, the Walgreens beauty advisor on duty good naturedly entertained all of their questions.

At that same store (and 200 other top Walgreen’s stores), there is going to be a big event for Coty Fragrances in celebration of Mother’s Day. On May 9^th and 23^rd  a demonstrator will be there distributing samples and spritzing customers with the new Halle Berry Fragrance as well as Celine, and Nautica Bermuda Blue. Customers can sign up to win a great Fragrance Basket at each store and there is also a gift with purchase opportunity. Customers  can also enter to win a $50 Walgreens gift card from the Bonnie Hunt Show at http://www.bonniehunt.com/walgreens/.
