Roll call! Let's get back to what we do!

glad you found something you liked at express!

and thanks for the TBS info. just to be clear, you get the one that's $15? the spf25 one? i hope they have them in my store.

also, an article [newyorker.com] in the new yorker about why american kids are so entitled... i thought it was an interesting read.

also, one about clutter [yahoo.com] and why we need it. Coverlaugh
Yep, I buy the $15 one. I've never tried the cheaper one, so I can't comment on it. The one I buy works great. I'm very fair skinned & didn't get burned at the beach. We were there about 4 hrs. & were in & out of the water w/o reapplying. The week before I didn't put it on the bottom of my legs & top of my feet thinking I'd mostly be in the water & not need it. Needless to say, I looked like a lobster. I did put it on my upper body & it didn't burn at all.

Love the clutter article. It seems to be very true too. Enjoyed reading some of the comments as well for perspective.

Also love the entitlement article!

Quote from GoHeels :I'm going to try to go by the mall, after my dr. appt. today. Can I get double points with a beauty (lip gloss) purchase in the store? If not, what's the cheapest thing to buy that qualifies? Also, will they give me a hard time about the coupon nerdicus posted yesterday? Our B&BW almost always gives me a hard time about printed coupons.





clearance jewelry will be great too. most of them are $5.99 - 30% off.
eta: yes lipgloss doubled my points.
Thats weird, i went to express and i asked three people about the double points and the manager had to ask someone to confirm (everyone said no but i was persistant) but when i found jewlry to accompany my purchase, they said i cant get double points on the whole thing except the jewelry part Frown should call cs?

it's for the whole purchase. i think it would be processed correctly, without needing to call. the store people are not the ones who are processing/awarding your points. just wait for it to post (if it ever does... the point history is iffy). if it doesn't post, or posts incorrectly, then call.

Sounds like you had a blast! So jealous - I need a vacation SO BAD!!!
I won't lie, it was pretty fun. I think DH still sees it as a "working vacay" b/c my parents were there laugh out loud I hope you get one soon!
Quote from ALVSGIRLY :
Any mac users? What's the deal with the safari and cb sites?
Is there an issue? I haven't noticed, but I mostly use Firefox because Safari kept crashing and my Mac is too old for the new version of Safari, sorry I'm no help

I'm glad you had a good trip. I wouldn't have wanted to walk in Chicago that time of night either.

The barn warming sounds fun. I'd never heard of one, even though almost everyone I knew growing up had a barn. Our property in NC has a barn on it that our nephew is using for cows & horses. Do you think I could talk them into throwing a party & buying us stuff? laugh out loud It's the least they can do, since he's put all his horses & cows on our property. EEK!Stick Out Tongue

It's sad how people can go down so quickly. It's good your uncle had 82 years doing what he enjoyed.
. . .
I hadn't heard of one either Coverlaugh You can always try! You need an excuse to wear one of your new dresses. Wink2 On this invite it specifically said "No Presents Please.", but I think I'll send them a canvas print of a pic my DH took. They had miles and miles of windmills, it was kind of magical at sunset. Thanks for your thoughts. He was my great uncle, so amazing that I have so many of the "greats" around still (5 out of 8!). I feel so lucky to know them.

It's with safari. Cb isn't working on some sites. Express is one. Tells me to use firefox. I need to see if I can get it on my iPad. I only have firefox on my desktop and I'm never on it.

Limited marked a bunch of stuff down. Does anyone know of any coupons or codes that would work? I know last time they had big sale markdowns, there was a 20% code, but I never knew where it came from.

Thanks for the info. Naturally, I forgot to use my coupon. I even had it in my purse. Doh
*snip*
I need a vacation too. Instead I keep having guests, which means I have to clean the house spotless. That's the furthest thing from a vacay. Embarrassment Are you still going to WDW? I think we're going to go to the Food & Wine Festival for a few days after our cruise. We'll be there the first of Nov. If you're going at that time, we should try to meet up somewhere to have a drink together or something.
We may be in Orlando around that time - my BDay is the 4th and I wanted to go then. Hoping everything works out, we should definitely meet up if we're in the area!!

I got to lay out today. My nose is even a little pink. It's still windy.
Glad you got to lay out a little!

Mine was super fast too! I will definitely start doing them in store also. Especially now that I don't plan on having many returns.

TY for the articles - I like the entitled one. Natalie is 5 months now. I think it's about time she did the dishes!

I love farms and the country - and I think your idea for a gift for them is so great!
This is working already. Stacks with the pink bling flip flops too.
