Living Social: $20 CVS certificate for $10. http://www.livingsocial.com/deals...oadblock=1

I just received this email. It should be a new one, but I'm not sure.
Thanks for this. I checked too and it doesn't work for me either. And with the zip code, it's probably based on billing address or something.

I didn't get a FS code either. I did get a mailer the other day...can't remember the last time I got one!
None for me either, and ditto about the mailer! Some Faboulous bra! I guess the name "Player" didn't cut it or something Stick Out Tongue

There was a VS seduction bra that was available over the holidays (and stayed around until the beginning of this month). It was silver and black or red and black. There was a matching thong.

It was basically the push-up verion of this: http://www.victoriassecret.com/ss...vsdWrapper

Does anyone have the bra or thong catalog number?
Just browsing VS' site and I came across the bra!

It also has the thong on the same product page too. HTH

I'm sorry the LS deal didn't work for anyone. Frown Is it normal for them to have area specific certificates for national companies? I thought the targeted deals were only for local businesses.

I have a dumb question. Embarrassment How do you create the layer tee look? http://www.victoriassecret.com/ss...vsdWrapper When I try that, one top is hidden behind the other. Living in a warm climate I don't need the extra layer. I just like the look. It's not worth it, if the bottom top is hidden.

Quote from GoHeels :
I got the strangest package in the mail today. It's a Similac newborn feeding set. It was shipped to my address, but I don't recognize the name. If my DH's grandmother had computer access, I'd think she sent it as a hint. She wants a great-grand daughter so badly that she came up with the idea of me finding another many & having a girl. In her mind, since I'm married to my DH now, it could still be her grand daughter. LMAO This came from a woman who has an otherwise sound mind. My DH is 6 1/2 years older than I. She must think he's too old to have another child. I hate to break it to her, but I think I'm too old to start over too. laugh out loud
Awwww poor grandma. I got the same set but I signed up for Similac for my virtual baby. laugh out loud My nephew and a family friend both had babies this year (well not my nephew but his girlfriend) so I signed up for the free checks for them. Now neither uses Similac. It's good barter for coupons. nod

Check all your email addys. Just got code/PIN for free shipping/return with clothing purchase.
Got one! Thanks for the heads up I would of missed it. nod

Quote from red333 :
There is a cami here [victoriassecret.com] for $14.50. Please let me know if you find anything cheaper. I always get confused as to what VS consideres "clothing" to be.
$14.50 is the cheapest I found too. I bought the 3/4" sleeve cross front T in white. [victoriassecret.com] Smilie

It's okay! Thanks for sharing! ADJ and I are sorta in the same area-ish, so that's probably why.

I thought it was strange too, but I guess so.

I always have trouble with this. From my experience, one needs to be slightly larger. I did this with 2 polos before and they were the same size from Old Navy, but if I didn't layer them, I could definitely tell that one was slightly larger than the other wearing them on their own.

I think you just have to do trial runs. Maybe someone else has an easier solution.

hmmm i emailed cs about the missing gift return (it was the new deep v very sexy bra) and they replied back saying they are sending a merchandise credit of 27.18. where the heck did they get this number? it's a brand new bra so i'm sure it hasn't been on clearance yet. where did they get this value?? i feel like it was an arbitrary number by the online email reps. Confused

also, i thought you don't get the tax back. so where did that number come from? when i divide by my tax rate, it's 24.99 so it seems they used an arbitrary 24.99 value. i want the full value of the bra! or else i would have just done an exchange. grrrrrr! Angry

hmm, strange. i called them and after arguing for about 20 minutes they agreed to give me merch credit for the gift return bra. but man! was that difficult! i don't think i ever want to do that again - they were saying they can't do a gift return unless they can find where it originated. is this true?!

Glad you're getting full price back on merch.

I should have taken a picture of my son's homework, like the funny exams i posted recently. it was a reading comprehension exercise, where the kid tried to cover up a lamp she broke, and then got grounded when the parent found out.

Q: Do you think she will lie again?
DS's A: No, because she learned a lesson but it could be possible.

Rofl2 so proud of him for giving a realistic answer. i had to make him erase the last part though. the teacher doesn't need to see it.

It's applicable for the tax, so I can see that, not sure about the price of the item. I'm glad you got yours resolved! That's some pretty shady stuff there Mad
