I can only make one per account now after the fix. I was able to place a few before it. So if you've used a cert you can still use another (unless you used it after the fix yesterday).

That's the best I can figure through my experience wolfie.
thanks alvsie.

has anyone been able to use a vs25cares again? anyone try calling yet?
i used the 1st code they sent; now i cant use the new one they sent

Barnes and nobles is sending out mystery coupons codes in email.
If someone did not get it and want it check here for free codes.

I called VS CS and after talking to her supervisor, CSR told me they will void the MC they already sent out before and I will get new MC card soon.
Thanks Alvs for suggestion hug

This will be my first Express order using a reward. What should I do? I have 3 dresses I want to try. 2 of them will add up to $150. Should I purchase all 3 on the order I will be using the reward on? Alternatively, I would order 2 & wait on the other, until I find more items to add up to $150. Is it better to use it on the least amount of items possible? You all have me concerned I'll lose my reward, if one or more of them don't work for me.

Quote from kurips :

it is short :teehee : i wear short skirts i just avoid buying things that i can't wear in many scenarios as much as possible. let's just say i couldn't resist this.
It is really pretty. Like you, I'm not sure how many times I would wear it. I may order it the next time there's a good deal on skirts.

Quote from ayoungpretender :
Cross-back sundress [victoriassecret.com], 6 - I was VERY excited about this dress and had been eyeing it since it came out. I was so disappointed though. The quality seemed very good and I loved it in the teal color, but the fit was off. The straps were too short for me, so it brought the waist up right to the bottom of my bust and then I couldn't zipper it all the way. If I can get an amazing deal down the road, I may try it in an 8, but I think it would be much more flattering if the waist fell quite a bit lower.

Tie-back bra top dress [victoriassecret.com], M - I decided to try this after reading a positive review and I'm glad I did. It fits very well and is flattering as well. The fabric is so comfortable too. It feels like a modal blend. I could get away without a bra with it too (being 34DD-ish I rarely say that), even though I will probably use a Nubra. I love the length too. I've been having a lot of trouble with dresses being too short, but this comes to about an inch above my knees. Only minor complaint is the seam on the side, because of the built-in bra and the ties, isn't straight so from the side it kind of looks like it's laced too tight or unevenly.
Thanks for the reviews.

Quote from nerdgirl :
you will be fine in a 2 - the waist wasn't really that much smaller but the straps were considerably shorter for me. i kinda think that they didn't bother changing the width much but just lengthened/shortened the straps for sizing. laugh out loud i fit a 4 and am going to try the 6 to see if the straps are longer, but i was able to zip up the 2 as well. the straps were just too short.
You have talked me into it! I need to find the black one now. I thought I saw it online. GRR! They should mention the shortening of straps. Dumb VS Bonk

it's really hard to order using a reward. i would definitely try stuff on first before ordering.

ideally you want to be sure you're not going to want to return anything. try in the store first before ordering online, or use the reward in the store where you're able to try the stuff.

buying 2 or 3 (if you must buy now), is completely up to you. there are tradeoffs on either. when i order with reward, usually each item ends up costing me only a few bucks. i just make sure to buy what i've tried on, or stuff that are not too dependent on body shape or fit (loose-fitting tops, for example).

Iagree last time i bought more colors of a sweater i liked. and rebought a few items as well.

using the reward in store is also a good way.

i've been returning so much at express that i wouldn't chance ordering something for the first time with a reward. if i were you, i would reorder those strapless dresses you love, and return the ones you bought originally.

Agreed! Know you're going to keep it if you're using a reward!

This is a long shot...but anyone have a cert they want to give away? Big Grin I don't have anything to trade...except for a unique $5 off diapers.com code for pampers diapers (which would go well with the fp deal).

Thanks for the advice girls. I'm going to try to make it to the mall, before Sunday. If not, I'll reorder the dresses I already bought. That's a great idea.

I've only used one so far. For some reason, I just can't get motivated to put together orders. Painting & preparing my house for guests has zapped all my physical & mental energy. I need some basic color bras, so I need to get with it. I hope I didn't miss the better deal, by procrastinating.

BTW, I'm glad your birthday celebration worked out well.
