Quote from CrazyCatJade :
Hey ladies - I have a question about a VS return. I returned some boxer pajamas I had purchased back in December. They were in the sealed package, I had never taken them out. When I look at the return info - this is what VS has:

Merchandise Total $-26.50
Shipping/Handling $0.00
Sales Tax $-1.06
Adjusted Refund $-6.76
Total $-27.56
Other Payment $-20.80

What is the "adjusted refund" for? I've never seen that before. Also, on the bottle of perfume I returned as a gift, it has this:

Total $-24.99
Payment Method: Oversold $-24.99

What is oversold?

Sorry for so many questions this morning. Yawn

LO is so sick and was up all night. I get up this morning with her and......my coffee pot died. Frown

I don't know what it means, but I can tell you they still sent me a giftcard when they labeled my return as oversold.

oversold is what they call gift returns/returns without receipt (so, items not associated with an order number on your account). they will always give merchandise credit for these.

i was confused the first time i saw this too, but the girls in here cleared that up for me.

I'm excited to do this now! I've been looking for new hobbies. I'd love to do outdoors stuff like this in Cali -- NJ just doesn't have the same appeal. laugh out loud
laugh out loud Maybe the prices will be even more reasonable there! It's really fun, I hope you find a nice cheap place!

just got this email from dsw and am loving the hat!! but they don't sell hats do they... Frown look how wide that brim is!!! heart
That hat was like the Bebe one I returned! I hated it because I couldn't see laugh out loud I'd like to see, thank you very much!

BTW I got that cross back dress. Fits me just perfectly! Except, it's a little loose fitting than what I'm used to with skin hugging dresses. Makes me feel like I can eat without looking fat laugh out loud

I will say that the Goregous doesn't work, but the Very Sexy multi way does. Just put a clear halter strap for the neck and do the low back and it's PERFECT! I got it in black nod I'm going to pass on the white though unless it goes to clearance because I'm afraid it will make me look fatter and I'm scared to try a Size 2 for it being too tight.

Waist fell at natural waist and I didn't think it was too short for me. I think it's about 4 inches above the knees, like what it looked like on the model. heart it

GH - If you're still considering the dress, I say go for it!

Cute hat! (I like that style with a smaller brim). You girls have me interested in purchasing hats now. laugh out loud I would usually just wear a baseball cap, but I think straw hats would be a bit more fashionable.

oh nice that the vs multiway works! i don't have that one. i don't think the 2 was that much smaller than the 4 so you should try it! the straps were tighter (too tight for me) but i should mention that i tend to fit size 4 dresses more than size 2 from vs since i carry my weight up top. i was still able to zip the 2 but the straps pulled the dress even higher up for me, which was bad considering it's already hitting at the wrong place above my waist. (that's also why things that shorten the torso tend to look bad on me, which is why i'm still unsure about it.) again, i thought it would be perfect for your body type! laugh out loud i can see being able to eat since the skirt is so forgiving! nod glad it works for you! did it come in white? i thought it was only yellow, teal, and black. i would love the white!
i'm actually considering a 6 to see if it'd be closer to my waist... i want it a bit longer!!! haha.

the wide brim hat is more functional than baseball cap also - it will block your shoulders from the harmful UV rays! nod oh and the part that i liked the most was the super wide brim of that hat. i feel like that's what makes it so chic... but azn is right, it'd be annoying to not be able to see. laugh out loud tho i think it'd be good for the beach.

the sephora shirt is funny - it's like my fcuk 'cheap fcuk' shirt. Coverlaugh

Yes! Invest in a VS multiway during the SAS! I have used that bra with so many impossibly cut dresses nod

Yeah, I found the straps a little annoying, but when I tightened the straps by hand, it also tightened the waist. I'll have to try it on some more when I have time. Yes! It also comes in white. I put in the catalog code when I saw it a couple months ago and it's still on my wishlist in white and I can put it in my cart. I'm trying to find it for you, but they took down the link for the wishlist :[
I briefly flipped through my catalogs, but I can't find it quickly. I can look for you again in a week. Maybe you could try calling and insist you saw it in a catalog and maybe they can pull the white up for you? I wish there was some way you can get the white one online, but I don't see how shake head This is the item number from the catalog: TK-285-098, but it still pulls up blank in search.
I think I will keep my 4 in black since I'm 4 in all VS dresses/coats so kinda worried if I jump down to a 2. laugh out loud

all the other ones from the fp deal. i think all the codes released since the switch to the new site are stacking. all older ones are not. try them! i think i'm going to pass on the shirt (as much as i'd love a shirt that says 'smarter' i feel like ppl might read that as snooty coming from a self-proclaimed nerd Stick Out Tongue).

codes that stacked for me:
earth12, scent4u, 6scents, luxe, beautee

ones that do not stack:
vibstila, trystila, diorlash, the be ones... etc.
