an order from 23rd came today and it came with the expired coupons laugh out loud

i'm really loving the ikat button back in orange/pink. i had one sitting here that i didn't even bother opening because i paid $9 for it. i received the $5 one today and that's what i tried on Crazy if i had known i'll like it this much, i may have ordered the blue too!
i like the blue one k. i ordered both, but i actually like the fabric of the solid colors more.

i'm hoping to find solid colors in store to exchange my burnout ones for. those don't work as well for me, and the fabric is less soft.

$9 is too much for that shirt! laugh out loud

How will an exchange work on the $19.90 tops we used $15 off coupons on? I received 2 Express orders today. Both tops were already hanging in my closet in the same size & color. Facepalm Can I exchange them for items that are $19.90 or less or will they only give me $4.90 toward an exchange?

After clicking on nerdi's link, I happened on these jeans. http://www.express.com/mia-extrem.../index.pro I don't have these pants, but have what looks like very similar blue jeans. These are the tightest jeans I've ever owned. Putting them on is like putting on panty hose. They're flattering around the midsection, but really tight on the legs. My MIL said my legs looked smaller than her arms in them. My DS said I looked like I was going clubbing in those, a sweater, cami, boots & the Exp. tweed jacket. shake head My DH, OTOH, loves them. My FIL seemed to appreciate the look too. Teehee I'm curious to know, if these are the same. I love the Mia style, but I'll pass if the legs are as tight as the ones I have. I'm not interested in the bird leg or clubbing look in another pair of jeans.

Quote from nerdicus :
XS. it fits me fine everywhere except length, so it should fit you perfectly!

not sure if this is a style that you'll like, but you may as well try it for this price!
Thanks

Quote from kurips :
the shoes i want went oos on me : ( the baby was sleeping in my arms so i couldn't check in the garage if i already have it :te ehee: when i had the chance, found out the one i have in mind is not the same, it went oos in my cart. so sad.
Bummer, hopefully they'll come BIS, if you stalk them.

Quote from crazymonkey1980 :
Love this shirt too! Confession, I haven't worn express in over 10 years since their fit changed a little, or bc I gained weight since starting college ... Anyhow how does the fit compare? I usually wear a small to medium in shirts. Any assistance would be great!
Express tops usually run bigger than the VS tops I have. (I mostly shop at Express now, so my VS tops are from last year or before.) In Express, I can often wear XS depending on the style. I've always needed a S in VS tops. Some Express tops do tend to shrink. If you're between sizes, it's better to size up to allow for shrinkage. FWIW, I need a S in sweaters & camis at both stores.

nod yep! that was the same style pants in XS. there's actually a little room in the XS waist for me so i think you may need XS. esp since you have skinny legs.
you may be underestimating my waist Coverlaugh

exchanging with the coupon use is ymmv. they may let you pick another top of the same value, that's the best case scenario. they may let you even exchange to just another color or size. or exchange/return for $4.90.

those pants will not be the same. fabric won't be the same for sure.

20% off haircare at drugstore.com. seems to stack with the 12% mr r cashback as the discount is not kicked out upon click through.

i bought my fave drugstore hair masks: tresemme mud masque and neutrogena triple moisture deep recovery mask. price ends up about the same as walmart's, but cb + no tax make it a better deal for me.

drugstore dollars are also out.

Thanks for the coupon & pants info. I think I'll see if DS's GF wants the tops. That would be easier than dealing with an exchange. I'll probably try the pants, since they should fit differently. I'm just not sure how often I'd wear the gray color.

That was probably during the FS promo. I was making payments on my Express CC almost daily before Christmas to have more money to shop with, & had to use my bank card on some purchases too. Embarrassment Your credit limit may be higher than mine though. You've had your card longer.

I don't know about online returns but i always toss those baggies since they print order # and everything. in store returns never need them.

nice - my ups store just texted me/emailed me that i have a package. i think it's my target luggage. can't wait to pick it up!
Whee wow, that was fast! I was looking at the sharkbite dress in black as a candidate for funeral/memorial services (always so easy to find a cute/sexy black dress vs a somewhat somber church-appropriate one), but that scandalous length will not do. Thanks to you and Reds and Kurps for that info. Is the fabric too sleek to wear casually (with sandals?) .

High Five Yay! Anyone else partaking in "Returns Rampage" this round? Coverlaugh
I want in - I've got one box packed up for VS, just a few more things and it will go out tomorrow!

Also packing up a return for 6pm.com.... Was anyone ever able to take advantage of Paypal's Free Return Shipping promo during DEC? They still haven't gotten back to me on it Angry

I know I asked this before but I don't remember the answer *smacks head*.

Does anyone know what happens if you return a whole order you made with a SRC? I didn't have any amount left over to put on a credit card and I don't want to lose out.
