The other day, I went to Aveda over on 5th Ave and was thoroughly pleased.  I picked up free Aveda Shampoo and Conditioner with a coupon from PulseJFK.  While sticking in my purse, I signed up for a free blow-out on Wednesday (this is offered every Wednesday from 12-3pm).  On the way out I poured myself a nice hot cup of free Aveda tea, which is delicious and has a sweet hint of fennel.  It was great, thanks Aveda!
