I just tried to place my Express order, but it's charging me shipping now. Frown I thought it was always FS with a $150 order. That's what I get for procrastinating. Sadwalk Do you think they'll have a similar deal in the near future? I really don't want to pay shipping.
Strange like Alvs said the banner flashes across the screen and no code is needed. In my email they sent it said "Free shipping on $125 orders now through Monday." Wonder why it isn't working for you? Do you have a Next card and signed in? Maybe it's for Next members? Scratchchin


Edited to add: NVM it was through Friday not Monday! DUH! Doh

I'll try it on with a white bra, before SAS to see if it shows. My skin would probably show less than most, because it's about as white as the tank in the areas that never get sun. laugh out loud
Aww so sweet thanks! I just hate wearing them and since my boobs are larger it looks funny under a white tank that is see through.

Just returned those Stella Extreme Stretch today. I guess I lost my Express reward since I returned and not exchanged? Dontknow I found the Zelda's so much better for me than Stella. I am a happy girl I found some new jeans!

Do y'all think it is weird that I got an express mailer addressed to somebody else, but it's my address. The house was brand new when we bought it.

i got 2 dresses for free at express store today
http://www.express.com/double-v-n.../index.pro
dress 2 [express.com] in garnet

male sa was new. he was going to process multiple-receipt returns in 1 transaction but couldn't.

he then proceeded to scan the 2 dresses by i told him i'm using 2 coupons (a-list reward and birthday) so if he could separate. he said he can do it in one. so i threw in the $15 off $60 too laugh out loud i was going to pay ~$9+5+tax, but because it was done all at once, my total went down to $0! Woot extreme couponing should have featured me! Rofl2

i have a cranky baby on hand, but i'm coming back later to recommend some stuff Whee

sorry i recommended stella. zelda actually doesn't work for me. i guess we have different shapes.

you do lose rewards if you return. that's why i am very cautious when using them. i bought shoes with my $15 last time and it just didn't work ad i didn't want to keep them even though i paid only $9.

i remember you said you didn't like it but it works on me. the xs was missing a belt and there were no other xs there so i got a belt from s, which i think is better for my big waist.

the 1st is very big on top and fitted at the bottom. i didn't expect to like it since the 2 reviews on the site are opposing. but i liked it.

i'll see later if i'm able to take pics. i'll probably end up asking dh to take and he'll be doing Photo on one hand and Crazy on the other laugh out loud

I thought I had until Monday to place the Express order too. Bummer. Oh well, such is life.

Jeans are on my list of things to buy next. I don't have a pair that fits & I'm going to WDW next week. I'll need pants at night, because I'm usually cold in the evening. I'm glad you found some you love.

sorry Frown the tier is until sun. i think someone mentioned here it's always free shipping for $150+, but anni said it isn't for her. i guess it's ymmv, or account-specific.

Wow awesome score! I love that first one. I was going to try it on in store today but they didn't have it in my size. Frown

Please don't be sorry, jeans are harder than a dress to recommend I guess. I did try Stella crops on and they were fine. Maybe it was just that particular wash. They had a butter soft Stella [express.com] I wanted to try but none left in my size. I may order them online. Girly

Nice deal! High Five The 2nd dress caught my eye earlier. That link also brought up a dress I may try. http://www.express.com/color-bloc...crumb=true Do you think I have a good chance of getting a deal as good as 30% off + the current best tier code + FS, if I wait?

I'm glad to see I'm not completely crazy. laugh out loud I thought someone posted there was always FS with $150.

*i cinched blue dress with belt since it looked too straight on me without one
*yes there is some bunching on the magenta dress sinceit isn't shaped, i guess because it's a t-shirt dress. i think the dress can be cuter using different belts.
*not-so-young woman in lilac legging
*freshy-curles hair using large remington wand

I don't think that 2nd dress bunches up too much. It looks really good on you. You're definitely not too old for those pants. Bonk That's a great, spring/summer color. Your hair looks so pretty. Girly I love the way all of you have such shiny hair.

Free hai crimper when you buy this flat iron. The $40 code probably works too. I haven't tested.
