I'm not good at organizing, but if anyone cares to come to Kansas City I'd gladly go sniffing with them .

*cough* Shades *cough*

Seriously, though, there's not a lot to choose from here but the County Club Plaza in KCMO is pretty dang awesome. It boasts Creed, L'artisan, Bond, & a few others. And there are other stores on the Plaza like The Body Shop, Bath & Body Works, Banana Republic, Gap, Tommy Bahama, etc that we can sniff around in, as well.

Who's with me?

I'm in, CJ!

I've only seen a couple other KC signatures on forum posts, as well as a few from OP. Bobbkc, are you reading this??

p.s. Don't forget L'Occitaine is also on the Plaza! Also, I could give a heads-up to Teri, my favorite SA at Halls. I'm sure she'd be delighted to roll out the red carpet.

Oh duh! How could I forget L'Occitaine?!?! I'd prolly know Teri if I saw her. I like Alicia...but she can be WAAAAAY pushy sometimes.

I can't believe I've missed this entire group until now!!!

For some reason, I thought the meet weekend was in July and I knew that would be tough for me to do. There is hope that I might be able to make this weekend! I'll check out my call schedule and let you guys know.

So put me down as a strong maybe ...

What would you think about including Sephora at the Oak Park Mall? I know it's sort of a small store and not a lot of selection but there might be a few things different there. We could maybe hit Nordies too?

oh! and meant to say that I left a message on bbobkc's page about this thread. He's wanting to meet too, we just need to let him know when and where. He doesn't have to work that weekend, so it's looking good for him to join in.

Any other BN'ers from Kansas, Missouri, or other places withing driving distance from KC? We would love to have you join us!!!

I can't come up Friday afternoon, as I had hoped. I can't take off work ... But I can drive up fairly early Saturday morning.

This is going to be great!

OK, actually, my friend may not make it up to see me like we had planned. A car accident kinda ruined his plans. He's ok...but unsure of his plans now.

YAY!!! errr I mean sorry that you can't be with your friend on Saturday ... but you can be with ME!

yes! I'm still in and I think Bill (bbobkc) is still interested. I need to let him know where to meet us. what about Snafoo?? Anyone else in the Kansas City area?

What do you think about meeting at Oak Park Mall and then going to the Plaza? Would that work out? If my husband drops me off at the mall, could I catch a ride with you to the Plaza?

That would work perfectly. Where @ the mall should we all meet? The doors right by the men's frags @ Nordies? You have the longest to travel that day, what time would work best for you? After we get plans hammered out we can post them on the main thread to see if we can generate any more interest.

Maybe we should send Snafoo a pm? Haven't heard from him in awhile.

Yo!

I just got back from a business trip and didn't pick up this thread until this morning.

Have you agreed on a time to meet? I have an appointment in the morning but should be available afterward.

Sounds exciting, and little bit intimidating, to meet you guys!

p.s. Terry Beach, my favorite Hall's SA, will be working tomorrow.

How does 11:00 sound? Is that too early, CJ? I thought that would give us some time at both Nordies and Sephora. (There's a new Lip Venom Vampire gloss I want to check out there!)

The doors by the men's frags at Nordies sounds good and then Sephora and then Halls! :bounce:

I'm afraid you're on your own with the lip gloss...

I'll try to get there by 11:00, but I can't guarantee. I can rendez-vous at some point if you PM me a cell phone#. I PM'ed mine to both of you already.
Did anyone succeed in contacting bobbkc?

BTW, my real name is Jon. But I'll still answer to Snafoo!

I got a PM from bbobkc a few days ago but he hasn't been signed on since then. I'll send another one tonight, helpfully he will see that. He was planning on meeting us.

Sorry if that is too early ... if Nordies or Sephora somewhere you are really wanting to hit, we can do it later. I wanted to give us plenty of time for Halls!
