| ...feel obligated to buy from them if you know you can get the products cheaper elsewhere (online)? Do you tell them that if they offer to sell you products? |

| Absolutely - if I want to buy a product I've usually done some research first, and I'll always tell them if the product's cheaper elsewhere - they may never know otherwise, and sometimes they appreciate the heads-up (soemtimes I get kind of a frosty look too, but that's life....). |

I'm the worst person to ask at this moment. I'm kicking myself for buying a blowdryer with a warranty. I didn't want it but the clerk already placed it with the purchase. So...here we are...
I told her no at first, but I think she didn't hear me. |

| depends if i want it instantly or am willing to put the time into researching and waiting for it to show up. Normally if it's a different of less than $10 I just buy it on the spot b/c I can't be bothered. |

If the esthetician has given me a bunch of different samples (not just one foil pack!) and went out of her way to explain how to use them, etc. I would probably consider buying something from her in future.
If it is a huge difference, I would buy at the cheaper source. |

| I would prefer to buy from my esthetician just because I feel like I should. But, I always know my prices, so if I can get it a lot cheaper elsewhere, I will. |

Ditto, lianne!!! I also agree with autumn95 that if the esthetician has spent extra time with me, given me samples, etc... I may feel inclined to pick it up to thank & encourage her. |

| I really try to always get the best price. The older I get , the more I go for the deal. All my skin care stuff is rather expensive ,& any discount helps. |

I rarely buy from the esthetician -- it's almost always cheaper to buy it online.
Luckily it's really easy for me to say "I have SO MUCH stuff at home...but it's good to know that I can buy from you when I run out." 
I never bring up buying cheaper elsewhere.
Same thing as pp's, though...if she gives me great service and/or samples, AND I really need the item, I would consider buying from the esthetician.

| If my esthetician introduced the products to me I'd buy from her for the 1st time and then buy them some where else after I used up. |
