Roll call! Let's get back to what we do!

OMG, that's so fun. Glad you had a great time!!

I am going through my trash emails and I see that I trashed it!! Faint I saw the offer for the lipstick and I'm like..NAAAAH and deleted it without going through the whole email. shake head That ought to teach me!


About this, they should have been processed as normal. 7-10 business days. Mine have been about 5-7, should be the same for you, if not, give them some extra time, maybe backed up or something.
awwww boooo sorry i didn't mention it here! i honestly did not think anything of it, but in retrospect it was such an awesome and different vib perk! and what a deal for 200 points! it would have been awesome if you had gone!!

Quote from PordaPoddy :
Yeah, I think what happened to Icey is kind of sweet actually. I've always felt weird about carrying VS b/c so much of their stuff is so loud. I've never had LV and probably never will, but if I like something enough like a bag, I suppose I would be "carrying it like it was LV" ... whatever that means.

Me too, I have a ton of totes. I use them to organize my packing cubes, 1 stores my beach stuff, 1 stores winter hats/mittens... I use the Black Friday tote for weekend trips to my parents house or in the car on long road trips. Alot of the nylon pink totes are perfect to store in your bag for reusable bags High Five

Have you ever tried the whipped cream bikini? That's a slick deal sure to impress. Wink2 I'd save it for a hotel though, it's pretty messy Teehee
It would have been sweet if she did not have such a stank attitude. Hahahaha. You could substitute any high fashion name (Chanel, Dior, etc) for LV in "carrying it like it was LV". Just means she was very pumped about a free bag. I have several Rubbermaid totes in storage full of VS/other bags. My BF swiped the latest bling bag. I think it was red/pink stripe, but luckily I had two of them. I like baskets, so I have them all around the home with different things in them. I like the idea of doing the same thing with VS totes (that are not see-thru), so I tried it out the other day. I like it, but will limit it to the bedroom and walk-ins.

Whipped cream bikini...freaky freaky!!!!!!!!!!!!

Quote from ALVSGIRLY :
I could get away with carrying more Teehee. Bags do become more of a pain when you have a kid to keep up with too.
I bet!

Quote from loveclothes :
Boy, I'm really showing my age here, but do they really let you sign up for credit cards with a nickname (no pun intended) like IceyNiki? I had no idea!
I am referring to the User name you select when you set up your credit card online account. It is funny. My VS user name is what my high school boyfriend called me. No one calls me Icey anymore. I have another "nickname" I use for online accounts, but I thinking of changing that one also.

Quote from ALVSGIRLY :
Agreed about putting food to lick off the body. It gets messy. Don't try it at home unless you have a maid!
Sometimes you have to bite the bullet and get FREAKY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You guys, I'm so excited! bounce

In January I applied to switch from my current grad program into a different one (same school, different department--I didn't feel fulfilled in my current program). I was invited for an interview on Feb. 27 but was getting a little nervous that I hadn't yet heard anything; then I received an e-mail yesterday that the faculty were "very impressed" with my interview and thought I'd be a great fit for the program.

Whee Whee Whee

Happy Weekend to meeee! Now the biggest source of stress I've been dealing with all semester is finally relieved! Thank goodness.

OMG


If you are subscriber to The Limited they sent me an email this morning with 3 Days O' Lucky promo now through the 18th. Save up to 50% with code at checkout. Mine is 40% and shipping is $3.17 on any order. Don't know if I'll use it if anyone wants it.
I got the same thing, 40% and shipping $3.17 in celebration of St. Patrick's Day. Yesterday I went to the actual store and there's a promotion of buy 1 get 1 free on jackets, pants, and skirts. not valid on markdown items.

Side comment: I'm a secret Hollywood celebrity junkie. I came across this picture from US Weekly [usmagazine.com] and Joe Jonas is holding PINK dogs, does anyone recognize when VS gave these dogs?!

I wonder if everyone got 40% and in reality that's the lowest, w 50% being the highest. Sneaky limited. I never pay for shipping...not even at 3.14! Or kohls .99 shipping Smilie)

amazon $10 GC for $5 deal- effective march 20.
Thanks for the heads up. I hope I remember it on the 20th. Embarrassment

Quote from Wewewe :
I had exact same situation as yours with no problem of the refund shipping. How did you contact them? Mine was via email. I have something to back me up of what they said.
I also sent an email. I think I'll contact them again to see if they'll send a return label. I'd rather not have to deal with requesting a shipping refund.

Quote from annicus :
omg the smashbox studio thing was so freakin awesome!!! i got my makeup done (they used a new e/s palette plus their new 15 hr cream shadows), they had a bar and lots of finger foods, and we got a gift bag at the end of the night with 2 samples (eye primer and mascara, blech) and a $10 sephora gift card!!! :faint : that is probably the best 200 point perk i've ever seen!! :lol : i was sad that i had to leave "early" (at 9) kuz i was late for a meeting with a photographer so i didn't get to have my photo taken, but they had a professional photographer with a studio light set up and they were taking your photo and then giving it to you on a cd!! anyway it was a really cool experience. i can't believe i was almost going to miss it!!

i have crazy teal/blue eyeshadow on right now. i love it, but i def don't think i could reproduce it. they also used the green primer on me kuz i was all red from the drinks :coverlaf :. it worked surprisingly well!

azn - it was a vib email that i got maybe 2 weeks ago. you had to call in to sign up for it, and it filled up within a day. luckily my friend signed up and brought me as her guest. i'm so glad i got to go!
That sounds like a great event. How did your trial, wedding hair/makeup session go?

Quote from ALVSGIRLY :
I have no doubt they'll refund it. If you call now, you may be calling after the return is processed too. They will refund it though.
I never call. I hate talking on the phone. Since I'm in no rush to return the package, I think I'll email them again. IMO, they should have sent a prepaid label in the first place. Now that I think about it, they shouldn't have sent 3 items I didn't order in the first place. Crazy VS. shake head

Me! Wave I've been watching non-stop since Tuesday. Teehee It's been a crazy day. The last game was awesome. I just told DH the tourney was already a success for me. Even if we don't win it all, Duke lost in the first round. Evillaugh
