Maybe co-dependent shoppers is a better term? LMAO

I watched all three episodes and it was pretty good! I kept finding myself siding with the Hatfields, then the McCoys, then the Hatfields. I wouldn't of been good at fueding. LMAO

He wasn't thrilled to be there let me tell ya! I said don't worry, she won't be buying any push ups. Teehee

LOL! I like your way of thinkin'. laugh out loud

When they hit the teen years that will change. Kidding I love my girls to pieces just wish they wouldn't bicker so much with each other.

November is one of my favorite times to visit the parks. Perfect weather! If you go you should have a great time. We live here and won't go near the parks in the summer. Too Censored hot!

My vent for the day..... I was buying shorts for my girls on AE/77kids and was using Shoprunner for free 2 day shipping but forgot to sign in and realized it after the order went through like we're talking 1 second, so I immediately called CS to ask to cancel the order and was told they can't. WTF 5 seconds later and you can't cancel? Made me so angry! Bash
laugh out loud I like co dependent shopper! HA!

My DD will most likely be a smartass just like me and DH. I'm sure she will remind me regularly that I am not the age I say I am Stick Out Tongue

I would have been terrible at feuding too!

*I typed out why I kept changing sides, then I realized people in here may want to watch it that haven't seen it, so I deleted it.*

My hubby says DD isn't allowed at VS until she has a job and can buy her own stuff from there. It really bothers him when there are young girls in the store. (Nothing against you, I am not sure the age of your DD's so I am not being judgmental, DH is already on his overprotective daddy run.)

I SO much prefer the weather towards the end of the year. I am from Detroit so I am used to the cold and snow and I honestly loved it! I HATE the heat here in Louisiana. Plus, this state is just gross. laugh out loud

I think there is a tier. It may work on the sale. It doesn't work on clearance of course. There isn't a free shipping to stack though Frown.

Thanks for the encouragement! Some days I feel good and some I feel bad, but every pound the scale goes down makes me feel better - progress helps so much! I am very results oriented.
woot Keep it up! The scale is a great motivator - I think the numbers can be wonky sometimes. (Especially when you gain muscle.) You can gauge by how your jeans/clothes fit. Smilie (Congrats on giving up smoking too!)

Me too...I keep hoping for some %-off swim code.

Hah! I don't have a DD but I do have a mother who likes to remind me which age bracket I'm rapidly approaching. Crying

In all the years I have shopped at VS, I have only used a tier code three times. The first time did not work out well because of returns, so I only use tier if I am buying something expensive that I know I will not return. I used it to buy satin bedding and cashmere ruffle robe/sweater. I was on a swimwear craze when I got back from Nassau, so I already bought too much swimwear. (I still have my eyes on more though.)

I am trying to stop myself from buying a gallon-size of WEN. I do not need it since I still have more than half of a gallon that I purchased 3 years. #SoSad

WEN by Chaz Dean Cleansing Conditioner is an alternative to shampoo, which strips moisture, volume, color, etc. from the hair. The Cleansing Conditioner takes the place of shampoo, conditioner, deep conditioner, leave-in conditioner, detangler, and shaving cream. I can honestly say that it works for all six of those things. I love it. I wish my hair stylist was educated on it, so I could stop using other products. You pump enough product for your hair length (I have to use the max) and cleanse. (I WEN in the shower. I am against washing my hair in the sink. I is not effective for me.) I comb and clip my hair up. Shower. Cleanse a second time and comb. Turn off the water. Pump in more for a leave-in conditioner. Wrap my hair in a Turbie Twist. Leave it in for 15 minutes. (Sometimes I get under the dryer if I need a deep conditioning.) Blow-dry with a round boar brush. That is supposed to result in luscious hair, but I always have to pull out my InStyler to finish it off. WEN has a lot of products now, but it all began with the Cleansing Conditioner.

Beside the Cleansing Conditioner, I use the Styling Creme and the Texture Balm.

But you use it instead right. How often do you use it? Do you ever shampoo? I should watch a qvc show I guess.

I was just kidding...but it is not shampoo. You use it instead. I only have my hair "shampooed" when I go to the hair stylist, which is every 6-8 weeks. I use it every time it is time to "wash/cleanse" my hair myself. A show just ended, but it will be on again at 8pm, 2pm Sat, 4pm Sun, and a few more times after that.

There are also tutorials on chazdean . com.
