Would someone be willing to show me some mercy & help me out? Please I came back from my trip sick, so my head is foggy. I'm totally confused about the different VS codes active now. Would someone be kind enough to tell me which codes are combining (bras, panties, GWPs, etc.)? I would be very grateful. Also, are SRCs only available to VS card holders still? It doesn't appear that they're being offered to those of us w/o the CC. I may not order, if the general public isn't getting SRCs. I could really use some bras though.
SP1229977--$10 off bra and free cotton panty
BRA--free ship on bra purchase
I used these 2 today, so I know that they 2 combine, panty is usual style/colors. SRCs are now for all who spend $10 or more instore/online.

Boo, that sucks! Hope they're gonna be free again!

Thanks for the thorough review. They're a lot more expensive than I imagined! $60!! It's a price of a video game! laugh out loud Any idea if it ever goes on sale? Or go cheaper? It sounds like we have similar hair textures. Do you think all 30 needs to be used at once?

Also, do the clips leave dents in your hair? Do you by chance have a link to the new clips that you're gonna get that matches the set? This is all very new to me. I really want to get a set and I think I might try this one.

Is the hotel in Old Town going to be noisy? That's my only concern if it's in Old Town, but the nicer one doesn't seem bad. The walk seems manageable Smilie
I just checked & I paid $54.95. I didn't even look for them cheaper. They were supposed to be for our NYE trip, & I needed them fast. Using Amazon Prime was the only way to assure I would get them in time. I didn't end up using them then, but I'm happy with the purchase.

I think I used about 22 of the rollers in my hair, so I only needed 7 extra clips. Here's the clips that aren't exactly the same as in the set, but are close. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/...os_product Hopefully, they'll produce the same results. The included clips didn't leave any dents at all.

A couple gals listed a few. I just checked that the bra FS and lacie don't combine. Figures. Sadwalk

The code for the free lace waist hiphugger is a once per account code so I have no clue what it will combine with (SP1230757).

Both the $10 off bra code (SP1230745) and $10 off bra and free panty code (SP1229977) combine with both bra shipping codes. The lacie code (LACIELOVE) is combing with only the shopvsbra.

Beach - gets you the swim tote with beach sexy purchase.

LACIELOVE, SP1229977, and shopvsbra all combine. I think that is the best deal unless the hiphugger code is working on them but I don't have a way to test it.

Thanks girls, I really appreciate it. hug I'll probably place a few orders, since I can get an SRC on top of the combined codes. My computer must have still had the old info in cookies, when I clicked on details @ VS.com to see if everyone was getting SRCs. Confused

Yes I do but..... laugh out loud

It may let me test it as a guest. I'll play with it in a minute. I'm back on my iPad and I hate shopping at VS on it.

Another thing to think about is if any of the places offer a small breakfast (continental, pre-packaged pastries, etc.) . It would be 1 less thing for your guests to worry about each day and would help them get on their way.

The wedding went well. It turned out really nice. The bride was okay with us "adding some color" to the paper cones with roses, so we added tulle to cover the paper.

It was a bizarre weekend that I'd like to forget some aspects of, but the wedding wasn't part of that. It was probably the most eventful (good & bad) trip we've had up there in many years.

I'll let you know how the other clips I'm ordering work, if I use them before you order your rollers.

that's a good point! i'll have to ask.
1 thing i like is, the 1 located across the street from a mall is close to a grocery store (in the mall). the others are not.
there are a lot of cute places to brunch in the area tho! i'll have to brainstorm and list those for them, if the hotel doesn't provide it.

thanks. that is what i'm thinking too - besides, out of towners will be from big cities where they're used to doing a lot of walking, so i think it'll be ok.

which nicer one? the one that's more $$? or the nicer one that is the same price but farther away. (and i'll bet you know what hotels i'm talking about! Coverlaugh)

hmmm maybe i didn't explain it right. none of them are sketchy by any means. they are all "nice", just some i think are nicer than others. all big name hotels, none of those days inn or anything.

thanks for the help guys! i think i've settled on: wedding party stays at cheaper hotel that is farther away with shuttle (mainly bc i'll be able to get a discounted rate on a suite). guests will have the option of that one, or the fancier one that costs more (i can block 10 rooms at a discounted rate with no charge). i'll let them know where we'll be staying.
I meant the one that is farther away, sorry! I don't think I know which hotels you are talking about Hide I've been away for too long!

Best bra deal imo is:

shopvsbra
SP1229977 ($10 off and free cotton panty) (unless you use the pbos)
and free panty: either lacie or hiphugger code (if it works)

That gets you a bra and 2 panties plus src shipped. They work on the pink yoga bra for $26.50. That's the lowest priced one that I know of.

Total with my tax is $17.54 shipped with the pink yoga, lacie, cotton bikini, and src. That doesn't require the card either.
