From their Wiki:

C.O. Bigelow Apothecaries is an American pharmacy currently owned by Ian Ginsberg. C.O. Bigelow was founded in 1838 in New York's Greenwich Village and is the oldest surviving apothecary–pharmacy in the U.S.A.[1]

Limited Brands had an agreement to open and operate other stores bearing the Bigelow name, which were operated as upscale beauty and skin care stores to compete with other stores such as Sephora and Neiman Marcus. However, all of these stores were closed, leaving only the original shop. Certain products from the line are sold in Bath and Body Works stores throughout the United States.

How did she rack up $100k of beauty products from a store that sells to Bath and Body Works??

And why in the world would the store accept that credit card again, once the charges were first denied?

The Tribeca part of NYC must be full of morons. Or lefties, but I repeat myself.

such common items as hairbrushes and skin creams can run into the hundreds of dollars

Pure speculation, but she might have sold them on eBay. It has happened before.
