Has anyone gotten in trouble for ordering backordered items to get free shipping and the cancelling them? I've been doing that a lot lately and it would suck to have my account flagged on top of feeling like a total jerk.
K is right, I've been called out for it but they didn't do anything about it. The guy was just like, "next time you do this, you'll have to pay for shipping" but since then I've done it again and nothing happened laugh out loud

We've all been friends since highschool, I feel like she became more prone to judgemental gossip during college. Generally she is a dependable, helpful and supportive friend so we all just put up with her judge-iness. I think she just isn't mature enough yet to realize that her choices for herself aren't the best choices for everyone else too. She'll learn eventually, I hope. But if she says annoying stuff about the bride again, I'm gonna give her lesson in manners.
oh, gotcha. i'm glad that she's a good friend for the most part. i guess everyone has their quirks/faults, but the good has to outweigh the bad Smilie

Oh, I forgot! I went to VS with my bra perks card yesterday. I took up a pink angels bra with metallic lace and a $62.50 price tag. It was really pretty but definitely the most expensive bra I saw. The lady looked at my coupon and exclaimed, "Free bra?!". I explained that I had bought 5 earlier and this was my reward. She gave it to me for free!

I know the coupon was meant for a pink bra, but apparently, YMMV.

Well the bra you got was pink colored.... Stick Out Tongue

Yesterday I was at Kohl's and there were some purse hooks on clearance so I got one. How many of you girls use purse hooks?

yesterday, i received 3 free panties from vs - pink lace trim and valentine thong in store, and when we got home a bo'd free panty from dec i've forgotten about in the mail box. i just wish i gotten that pant when they've started giving out src laugh out loud i tried to speng my $10 reward and get early access src, but there was nothing. i even had a coupon for $5 crop tee (normally $17.50 ea or 2 for $26), but it's so ugly i chose not to take it!

I got my free Valentine Lacie yesterday and the store I went to (brea) had pink, red, AND black! I got to choose which I wanted.. Pretty awesome considering they're usually out.

Hi, there were two prices 4.40 & 6.20 (clearance of 80%). They are pretty nice, most of them had letter initials on them, a shoe, purse or dog. I think these are from the holiday gifts they had but they aren't xmas designs at all. These do not fold or roll up in a circle. Also remember the $5 off Q. Smilie

I was going to buy that purse hook from kohl' s (the one with the initials) but when i put it down to look at something else the black thing with the initial fell off! I figured i got a bad one so i picked up another one and the same happened so i didnt buy it. i hope it doesnt happen to you but i just wanted to share! Smilie

I got my Julep order yesterday, & decided to give the polish a trial run, before the wedding. So far, I have the blue on one hand. When it dries, I'll try the glitter polish over it. Looking at the blue on my nails I'm not sure I have the nerve to wear it. Blush Hopefully, the glitter polish will tone it down a bit.

ty! i missed you all. I did however just have to close my cart at gifting grace and walk away... boy did i save $ when i didnt know where you all were
I know I would save a lot of money, if I didn't come here. I would miss you girls too much to stay away though.

Quote from kurips :
i actually came here to tell a story... dh just made a complement on my hair out of nowhere, at a time when i haven't looked at myself in 7 hrs :lol : i hot-rollered it last night, slept on it, napped in the afternoon 2 hrs. no combing in between, just running my fingers through. so i guess that's the hair style formula for me :teehee :
That was sweet of him. You'll have to try to recreate the look for him. I'm glad you like your hot rollers. I couldn't do w/o them on special occasions.

Quote from oewiz :
Aww I should have gone into express today! Thanks for the info!


Grr I'm so mad for my bride (I'm maid of honor) :mad : She is in crunch time, her wedding is next month and she tells one of her BM that she only needs to do 2 more things and the BM is like OH! I have to take back all the stuff I've been saying to my coworkers and the other BMs behind your back about how you are so unorganized and getting nothing done! :eek : This is the same woman that complains and rolls her eyes if you talk too much about your wedding planning, even when other people are asking you about it! (did it to me and one of the other BMs who was married 2 years ago) and then when this bride tries to make sure not to talk too much about planning to her, she assumes that the bride isn't doing anything! :shake : Good thing the bride is super sweet and nice, I wouldn't have been so polite.
I was wondering why you all kept having her in weddings, then I saw your post further down. Someone needs to talk to her about it. It's wrong of her to continue to do this to you all. Is she married yet? It sounds like she's jealous of you all getting married. Maybe, she doesn't realize how much it shows. If she knows her negativity shows, she's trying to upset you on purpose. I'm not sure how good a friend that is.

I got the one with the red shoe so I didn't touch the ones with the initials. That totally sucks about the quality especially considering how much the original price is. Well if you get it with the $5 off email Q, it's free or cheap. Thanks for letting us know!
