oh weird - they let me do that a few weeks ago, bc i asked them to look up the receipt and they couldn't find it. they said only exchange for stuff in store tho. i'll have to ask them to see what can be done.
i checked the back of the receipt and it says they'll do a courtesy search. if they can't find, you can exchange. looks like your store did it as per rules. i may try this, or just keep the jeans (which ends up costing me $15 which is the price i paid for the cami)

i remember for sure they got stricter with the rules. i guess it used to be that you can opt for store credit instead of exchange. and they didn't have to search first.

i received the relaxed shorts in 0. i think they could work for me as relaxed fit. also, it looks like i can uncuff them to make them longer. i can't wait to get the 00's to compare.

i'm not sure if my store said i had to do the search first. i asked them to search, since i wanted my $ back. they couldn't find it. i was sad, but it worked out to my advantage.

do you not like the jeans? or just don't know if they're too young for you? i think you should keep them! i love the color and they sound like they fit you well.

i just checked my UPS slip - it says i have to sign. or someone over 21 has to sign. grrrr! had i known this, i would have sent it to work. how annoying.

Needs yall's opinion.

Just got this swimsuit [everythingbutwater.com]. I had to buy a large top. Is the band around the bottom of my boobs too thick or am I just being too picky?

like the purple shorts from last night .... IMHO I think the band is too thick, but the suit is too cute! I am scared to get into a bikini since having ds last year. I bought a one piece to cover the mommy tummy. Once I get my legs back and loose a few more lbs, bikinis here I come!

i got the twist back tank in red xs. i should have gotten s. the xs straps are too short on me! the shirt is a little too fitted for my liking. not a big deal tho - it would have been nice since it was so cheap, but it's def not a must for me - i have too many tanks anyway.

I was cleaning out my desk and found some express mailer coupons

(#1) $10 off $30, $20 off $60, or $30 off $90
(#2) $40 off $120.

These expire 7/4. I'll give the online codes to whoever asks first since I have no use for these Smilie

Quote from nerdgirl :
oh yeah, sd gets cold. especially in april... i would say in most of so cal, it gets cold all seasons except summer. i was in tampa once in feb and was surprised that it was warm enough to wear dresses/shorts/summer wear. when i checked the weather online, it seemed comparable to our weather here. i guess the humidity just makes it that much warmer - i was hot in my jeans there in feb!

i think bc of the dry heat i can still wear those "sweaters" in the summer here. they're breathable, so when there's a breeze it'll be fine. and yeah - for us, it's more like, if you go out by the coast it gets 10 degrees cooler. :nod : definitely not the same pattern!
Unlike the east coast of FL, we don't have much wind coming off the Gulf. When we go to our place near Miami, I always wear pants or capris & a sweater at night. The actual temp is higher than it is here, but the wind off the Atlantic makes it feel much cooler. We felt the wind in SD was what made it so cold too. Humidity combined with the lack of wind in Tampa would really make a difference for someone who isn't used to it. It's a good thing you were here in Feb. Can you imagine what it would feel like to you in August? The good news is you eventually get used to it. Unfortunately, that also means you freeze most places.

It fit up top. From the waist down a tad too big.
Welcome to my world. Finding a dress that fits in the chest area & the torso is a challenge. It gets very frustrating. I had better luck at Express than with VS though.
