If any of you have a Bank of Americard and use their Add It Up cash back site, I was able to make a purchase going through the site at Macy's for my mom with my mom's non BOA card and got CB for it.

I haven't tried elsewhere because I have a BOA card

For the girls that have ebay experience, I just sold something on ebay on Tuesday to a buyer with 0 feedback. They were on ebay since 2010. I received payment just now, but then on paypal, there's a red RISK ALERT flag...I'm kind of scared to ship - what does that mean usually?

Should I ship anyway? I've NEVER EVER seen that flag and it's kind of scaring me.

Edit: I guess it's some glitch, so I guess FYI to paypal users.

Why can't VS make dresses for girls who can't go bra-less? I can't NOT wear a bra, and half the dresses I buy from them are either too low in back or front (cleavage-wise) to where I have to send them back. I don't mind a peek of cleavage now and then, but aside from BF I'm sure no one wants to see my boobies honkin' around everywhere. Smack
Comfort I never would have seen that coming from the dress you linked.... I guess I'll join the club. I've had such a problem with the multi-way dresses too... I thought I could just hike the back up and put a bra on but no go... it's no bra or nothing Sadwalk I can't wear something where these heavy things are going to bounce around- they hurt when unleashed like that and we'll get nasty stretchmarks! On the plus side- when they make dresses/sportsbras/tanks with push-up bra tops- I've had some success b/c that push-up provides support too.

I know Roll Eyes (Sarcastic) . Now when I was young, I did wear hand-me-downs from my brothers- T-shirts that were waaaaay too big. But it was cool back then... I think Scratchchin

I think the ladies of VS SD are too sharp to do something like that, but I couldn't believe the seller would do that!

Omg- I'm starting to get packages that I ordered when I was on my medication! I don't even remember ordering this stuff.
LMAO

Quote from IceyNiki :
I love my cleavage. Hahahaha #ouch
Me too. I just like to keep it to myself on occasion. Stick Out Tongue I'm glad to have it for my DH's amusement & when I go on cruises & stuff like that. Formal dresses look better, when you show a bit a cleavage. Plus, I like to dress a bit sexier, when we're partaking in the night life. For shopping, running errands, theme parks, & stuff like that, I don't want to show it to the world. To me, there's a place for everything. I wish VS made tops & dresses to wear when I'm not in that place.

Quote from Taryn :
:lol : I appreciate my cleavage, too, just not everywhere, all the time. : ) Call me old-fashioned, but I think modesty can be sexy, too, albeit in a different way.
This is exactly how I feel. IMHO, sometimes it looks sexy. Other times it looks slutty. I don't want to cross the line to slutty.

This was my surprise. Blue shoes. They are so cute. I saw them, yesterday I think it was, and thought they were cute. I didn't buy them though.

http://www.victoriassecret.com/ss...vsdWrapper
Just tried this on. I love it. Now if my boobs would only move. They're stiff right now and aren't going anywhere.
Those shoes are really cute.

Boobs not moving is a good thing. Mine seem to be moving downward. That's not so good. EEK!

Quote from Tizzylicious :
Much better thanks! :hug

I'm so frustrated! Been trying for 30 minutes to get into my VS online account! Had them email the password and still does not recognize me. :headbang :

I love that one too and really want it but I am worried it is like this one I tried around Christmas time that looked awful on me. It [victoriassecret.com]

I think it looked so bad because of the way it fit my chest.

I'm really liking this one:
http://www.victoriassecret.com/ss...vsdWrapper
I'm glad you're feeling better. Smilie Did you finally get into your acct?

It seems like some of the girls ordered that first dress in multiple colors (maybe azn, I don't remember for sure Dontknow). I always thought it was pretty too. It's too bad it didn't fit right. I have that problem with a lot of VS clothing.

Quote from CrazyCatJade :
At least my clothes, shoes, and purses don't cost near what a gun does : lol:

Ugh. I am mad that none of the bra tops I bought fit at all. I bought the wide strap one as I wear a bra with it anyhow, and it just looks, well, weird. Nowhere near as nice as it does online. : ( Thank goodness that one came with the free return label lol.

Can you return items from more than one order in one package? I have never done that before...
Hopefully, you'll get more use out of the clothes, shoes, & purses too. laugh out loud

Tizzy & I don't have much luck with VS bra tops either. Sorry yours didn't fit.

I'm going to have a bunch of stuff to return this time. This return will have more than all my other returns combined. I hope they don't have a problem with it. Some of the girls on here return big boxes full, so you should be fine.

PS: I'm so far behind with everything today. I'll return your PM soon.

Quote from azn1x6flame :
Why on earth were we stuck with brothers : shake: :facepalm :


I got my second umbrella, works like a charm. I'm going to see if I can jimmy the button thing loose. On my broken one, the button thing to expand the umbrella is wedged in.
I have 4 living sisters, & no brothers. Do you want to trade? Stick Out Tongue

Good luck fixing your other umbrella.

Be careful with that. Even if you use the Order Form from the higher-priced item, VS searches to see if you purchased it at a lower price and credits as search.

Yes! Today I got in. VS seems to think I'm really stupid and that I had the cap lock on when putting in my passwords. Even tho I specifically told them I copied and pasted the password and username from the email they sent into the fields. Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)
