Anyone notice now that when VS gives you a link to tracking info at USPS, it does not go right to that tracking number...you first have to enter it. Annoying!

Thanks for the bag link!

Are you sure that the item in the size and color is will available? They've cancelled my BOs before because the color was OOS or something. This was a while back. I'm thinking they know they won't get the stock, so their inventory was deducted, but there was lag in updating their site.

I hope you get your items anyway!
The same bra in the same size & color is still adding to my cart. I could check out, if I chose to. I don't know why they cancelled them. It's not a big deal, because I've bought so many bras lately. I don't really need them, but I find it odd.

Quote from ALVSGIRLY :
They're probably just being crazy. Are they canceling entire orders?
Only the b/o bra is cancelled. Everything else has shipped. Dontknow

None of the links to USPS are working right in my account either.

I have found that with beauty items, they are more lenient. I have returned mists without the sticker on the bottom and have had no problem.
Thanks girls. I meant UPC sticker not UPS....lol

Woot

We bought all the "fixins" that we normally get in our veggie subs at Subway, thinking it would be cheaper to make them at home than paying $5 there...but the supermarket didn't have any subway sandwich bread!?!? We wound up just buying some small french bread rolls but it's still WAY more bread than what we would want. Is that normal?? I thought at the bakery there they would have some at least.

Or was I already bonkers?

I got this dress today in the lolli color. I remember someone asking about it. I'll try it on whenever my boobs will go into it. I may can get them in it but they're still stiff so I may have to wait.

Quote from CrazyCatJade :
I was going to post the giveaway to *some* people on SD, but my daughter quit breathing and we spend 2 days in the hospital, the day I found the giveaway. If I find another giveaway I will let you ladies know, but I'm selfish haha. I won't post it on the main SD pages. Heck, they gave out PHENOMENAL prizes and I found it on my own on day 8. The prizes were all ARV $100 - $300, she gave out 5 or more per day and the average entries were around 25. The SD effect would have killed my chances lol!

That makes me sound like such a greedy biatch. :sadwalk :
EEK! That sounds scary! Hope your daughter is doing well right now. hug
And you gotta give me some tips on winning sweepstakes. Wink The most I've won is probably a $50 Visa prepaid.
Quote from annicus :
They told me to take it up with groupon, which was ridiculous bc groupon was closed by that time (it was dinner, in CA and groupon operates on central time or eastern time). I got really pissed and told them that I did my part by handing them the groupon before the meal - it was their part to check it before the meal because I would never have eaten there without the groupon! I also asked them how they check the groupons and speculated that someone that did NOT have my name redeemed my groupon, and asked if they checked for my name on an ID or something. They said they did not - they only check the number. So I berated them for allowing fraud, assured them that I had never redeemed it (because I hadn't!) and finally they caved and comped the meal. I don't remember if I left tip - I would assume I did not.

I did send an angry email to groupon when I got home that night. Groupon did nothing except add $10 groupon bucks into my account. :rolleyes : They really need a better system of voucher #s.
Good for you for standing up for yourself! nod I would be so pissed too but I'm not sure if I would've stood my ground.

Quote from azn1x6flame :
Also, I went to Puente Hills, they are stacking. They said that they are going to continue to allow stacking and that they've always done it. I can confirm they didn't used to, but these 3 times, they have. She even told me that they tell people to stock up in March and go to their VS to redeem!

Thanks for the stacking info! woot
Quote from red333 :
I'm so jealous of you ladies in CA that are able to stack! I don't have very many this time, but it sure would be nice to use them all together Smilie

Also, I just learned that I won a travel grant. I'm pretty nice. It's exciting that people are actually starting to recognize my work. I just hope this continues...
Congrats on the travel grant! bounce
Quote from GoHeels :
VS has cancelled 3 of my back orders in the past few days. All of them are still back ordered, but available for purchase. Anyone else have this happen lately? I hope they can tell who cancelled them. I don't want to get flagged for having a lot of cancellations.

I'm glad you all got in on the Target bag. woot
I think VS cancel bo items if they aren't fill within 3 months. Did you place your orders a long time ago? You might want to contact CS if the cancellations were a mistake. They might be able to reinstate them or place a new order for them. Hope it works out. Smilie
