Let me reintroduce, the VS Social Thread!

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


Please PM everyone who was a part of the VS Social Thread to inform them of our new home.

code "E B A T E S" (without the spaces) takes 20 off 60 at limited. works with "regular price" items (so the 40% off dresses works). there is shipping right now but this could be an ok code for those with FS.

241 takes $15 off every $50 you spend. Excludes the .99 items.

I also have some free shipping codes that start next Monday if anyone needs them. You'll have to enter it in the code spot so that's the only code you can use. They will only be useful to most people if they do additional % off that doesn't require a code.

Any opinions on the graphic tees from Express? Good quality? Do they wash well?

I'm looking for spring tops that aren't stupidly expensive like the ones at VS. shake head

You are not helping me resist the urge to buy more. The VS envies and packages are one thing DH does not mind showing up here on my doorstep. LOL. :lol

Tell your DH you'll put on your bikini when he puts on his speedo. : coverlaf: My hubby never complains about my swimsuit not being a bikini because I can never get him to the beach or pool with me. He works in the heat all day long here in FL so the last thing he wants to do on his weekend is spend it on the beach or by the pool. :shake :

My VS card came today so I called to activate and they are offering a $20 GC wyb their insurance if you lose your job or become sick. The girl said it's $1.99 per month for every $100. I asked if you can cancel anytime without penalty and she said yes. I figured I'd see what it was about for a month and get my $20 GC. I'm sure there will be a catch when the paperwork comes for it. :rolleye s:
You're just now figuring out this is a group of enablers? Where have you been? laugh out loud I wouldn't buy 1/4 as much stuff, if it weren't for you girls. I might actually have a little money on occasion. Embarrassment

Quote from red333 :
I just checked my SRC's, and they weren't hard to count. I only have 1 this time around. usually, I have more, but I've been so crazy-busy with school and teaching that I haven't even been to the mall in the last month. Maybe I'll place another order this evening...I wish VS would have had more good shipping codes.
I agree. We need more codes! I'm getting ready to place an order, but it kills me to only use two code boxes.

Anybody ever bought from Body Central? For some reason, I get their catalogs. I've never bought anything. Their catalog has some really cute tops for those of use who like feminine clothing. They're cheaper than VS, so I wonder how the quality it. Anyone know?

I think they have a store at the mall. I think it's kind of like wet seal. Not very good quality.

I wish I've jumped on the coconut water deal. But I mostly just drink Vitasoy coconut milk.

You're welcome for the code! And of course, you know alvsy better, I'm sure she'll have over 70 SRCs! laugh out loud

You're always such a sweetie, liggie! hug Thanks for the inspiring quote! Blowkiss

Check out dermstore rebates. New ones are up. 20 for 25 or 40 for 50.
Thanks for posting! Although I still haven't received the last 2 rebates from Dermstore. Anyone got theirs yet? look around

Yeah, if I remember correctly, you need to spend over $100 within the next 3 months to be qualified for the $20 gift card. I signed up for it over a year ago though, and I quickly canceled it, so I could be wrong. Hopefully you'll be able to get the $20 GC! Smilie

I find them to be a bit thin. But I'm no Express expert, maybe frequent shoppers like alvs/K can comment on them? look around

I haven't bought graphic tees this season. There is one I want. They are thin though. They fit nice and look cute.

I agree with ALVS, cheaper quality spot on with Wet Seal comparison. nod

I have to be honest, I don't own any Pink panties. Secret
Mainly because I don't know if they are misses sized or junior sized. I noticed with all their bra's they are for little ta-tas. So I didn't know if their sizing was meant for ladies without ... hips. Blush

I am guessing you are right. She ran through it so fast I barely caught all she said. Makes sense that you need to hit a limit to get the GC. I'm sure I'll get up to $100 in 3 months tho. Girly
